Leonardo DiCaprio’s Girlfriend Assists After Jellyfish Sting on Yacht Trip

Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti are continuing their luxurious Italian yacht vacation together — with one uninvited guest.

On Sunday, Aug. 4, the actor, 49, and his model girlfriend, 26, were photographed going for a swim beside a yacht in Sardinia. The relaxing day wasn’t without incident, however, as the Killers of the Flower Moon star appeared to suffer a jellyfish sting while swimming, photographers on the scene shared. Several varieties of the invertebrate harmful to humans reside in the Mediterranean Sea.

They snapped DiCaprio trying to examine a red mark on the back of his right thigh on the deck of the boat, pulling his swimsuit aside to get a look at the spot. Ceretti and one of the yacht’s crew members appeared to quickly tend to his injury.

Another photo shows the actor clutching a towel and smiling at his girlfriend, the leg of his swimsuit still bunched up.

For their recent day at sea, the actor tied his hair up in a bun and wore black swim trunks and silver necklaces as he swam in the sea. At one point, he even sported some goggles as he submerged himself underwater and used what looked to be a wakeboard to float along the surface.

Ceretti, meanwhile, wore a black bikini and some silver earrings as she took a dip in the waters at Maddalena’s Archipelago, leaving her long dark hair down as she swam.

Joining the couple on their vacation were a host of fellow celebrities, including DiCaprio’s longtime friend and Spiderman star Tobey Maguire, also 49, former editor-in-chief of British Vogue Edward Enninful, DiCaprio’s frequent collaborator and actor Lukas Haas, and model Neelam Gill.

Just a few days prior, the group were spotted in Sardinia spending even more time on their yacht. Maguire could be seen packing on the PDA with model Babette Strijbos, as photographers captured them hugging and kissing while swimming at an Italian beach.

DiCaprio and Ceretti have been vacationing in Italy since late last month.

The couple have been linked since August 2023, when they were first seen spending time together in Santa Barbara, Calif., enjoying ice cream and coffee. In September last year, the couple were even seen spending time with the actor’s mother Irmelin Indenbirken, in photos obtained by Page Six.

In April 2024, a source opened up to PEOPLE about their relationship, recalling how they spent a date night together with friends at a celebrity-favorite restaurant in Santa Monica, Calif.

“The restaurant has been Leo’s favorite for years and he’s enjoyed date nights with Vittoria several times,” the source told PEOPLE at the time. “She’s, of course, Italian, so she takes care of ordering all the favorites.”

“They sat next to each other and he had his arm around her. They dined for hours and all had a great time,” a source added at the time, recounting their dinner date. “…She is very cute, sweet and charming. Leo seems to really like her.”
