Leo there for Kate through split
Wednesday 17 March 2010
Although they played lovers in films they have been in together, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet are reportedly like brother and sister in real life.
And Leo has apparently been helping Kate deal with her split from director Sam Mendes after 6 and a half years of marriage.
The Sun quotes a source as saying: "Leo and Kate have been like brother and sister since they starred in Titanic together.
"And since Kate's marriage started to go south, around the time they were filming Revolutionary Road, they've got closer again. Kate has always really adored Leo and feels like she can tell him anything."
The insider cited the pair having grown professionally together as a reason for how close they are: "They were thrust into stardom together and were the only people who knew what the other was going through. He's been a rock for her."
Kate and Leo became famous playing lovers from completely different backgrounds in blockbuster Titanic.
