    Hollywood superstar Leonardo DiCaprio is making headlines for his dating life again. However, this time, the actor wants to desperately to change his dating image.

    Over a period of time, the Oscar-winning actor, who will turn 49 on November 11, has earned a reputation for dating models and actresses half his age or under the age of 25. He was also mocked for splitting from 'Death Wish' star Camila Morrone after she celebrated her 25th birthday.

    According to a report by DailyMail.com, a source told the news outlet that he isn't happy with the constant jokes and criticism about his love life. It turns out he is looking for a mature partner.

    "Leo is very single right now and he is not keen on the hype suggesting that he is seeking out these very young women. He is looking for something more mature in the relationship department. It is just ridiculous because he cannot go anywhere without being linked to the youngest beautiful woman there. He wants to ditch this image once and for all and he is really bothered that this continues to follow him. Leo wants something like he had with Camila, something real," the source was quoted as saying.

    After the success of 'Titanic', DiCaprio's dating life has been always been in the spotlight. Two years after the release of 'Titanic', he started seeing the then-18-year-old supermodel Gisele Bundchen when he was 24. Their relationship lasted five years before they split in 2004 when she was 23, and a year later he started dating model Bar Rafaeli when she was 20. Their relationship lasted five years before they broke up when Bar turned 25 in 2010 - kicking off a similar dating pattern that has been following the actor even today.

    In 2011, he dated actress Blake Lively when she was 23 before he got together with model Erin Heatherton, 22, for a few months. He moved on to German model Toni Garrn when she was 22 before they split in 2014 when she was 24. In 2015, he went out with actress Kelly Rohrbach, who was 25 at the time - before they split when she turned 26. His romance with actress Nina Agdal which started in 2016 ended two years later when she was 25, and Leo then started dating Morrone. After the actor's split from Morrone, he was photographed with 25-year-old Victoria Lamas.

    Earlier this month, the 48-year-old made headlines again when he was linked with a 19-year-old model. The 'Titanic' star was pictured seated next to model Eden Polani at a music event, fueling the unsubstantiated relationship rumours. The two attended Ebony Riley's release party for her new EP during the Grammy weekend.

    However, sources told the US-based news outlet Page Six that the two weren't dating. "There is zero truth to this. He was seated next to (Polani) at a music party, along with many other people. It's just silly. Leo clearly can't be dating every single person that (he's) in a room with," the source was quoted as saying.

    Nearly four months ago, DiCaprio was linked with supermodel Gigi Hadid. The couple were first romantically linked in September during Fashion Week. Page Six reported they were hanging out at a loft party in Soho, and were also spotted at Casa Cipriani.

    Later that month, DiCaprio was spotted in Milan the same day Hadid walked in the Versace Spring/Summer 2023 fashion show, as per Page Six.
