Leonardo DiCaprio’s 22-Year-Old Girlfriend, Camila Morrone: 7 Facts About the Argentinian Who Calls Al Pacino, “Stepfather”

Camila Morrone is an Argentinian-American actress and model. Despite having a whole catalog of runway walks and magazine covers as well as her body of work as an actress, Morrone became a household name due to her relationship with actor Leonardo DiCaprio.

As scandalous as any Hollywood relationship, the 25-year age gap in their relationship has caused a stir in the media, owing to Morrone’s overnight celebrity stardom.

In this list, we look at the seven facts about Camila Morrone:

7. What is Camila Morrone’s Age, and Height?

Camila Morrone was born Camila Rebeca Morrone, on June 16, 1997. She is 22 years old as of May 2020. She was born in Los Angeles, California, to Argentinian parents — both of whom were once prominent members of the entertainment industry. Her parents got divorced in 2007 when Morrone was only 9.

She stands at 5 feet 9 inches (1.75 meters).  

6. She is Dating Leonardo DiCaprio

Morrone first came to become a household name when she was seen adorning the arms of Oscar-winning Hollywood icon, Leonardo DiCaprio. The 22-year-old was seen with DiCaprio, who was 42 at the time, as far back as December 2017. They made their official debut as a couple at the 92nd Academy Awards in February 2020.

DiCaprio, 45, is notorious for having a thing for women half his age; women in their early-to-mid-20’s. He has been linked with such models as Nina Agdal, Kelly Rohrbach, Toni Garrn, and Kat Torres.

DiCaprio is no stranger to dating stunning models half his age; even so, their relationship seemed scandalous even by his standards. Morrone was quick to jump on the defense of her boyfriend and said of the age gap in their relationship with DiCaprio during her interview with the Los Angeles Times, saying:

“There’s so many relationships in Hollywood — and in the history of the world — where people have large age gaps. I just think anyone should be able to date who they want to date.”
