Meanwhile, Gigi has been making headlines this week for fueling relationship rumors with Oscar-winning actor Leonardo DiCaprio, who recently called it splits with model and actress Camila Morrone. Gigi and DiCaprio were seen by eagle-eyed fans at an afterparty during New York Fashion Week. Neither of the stars confirmed or denied the news, but fans on Twitter have mixed reactions about the duo’s link-up. “Gigi Hadid dating Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the biggest downgrades in history,” wrote one user, while another said: “Gigi Hadid and Leonardo DiCaprio would be the hottest biggest couple in the world.” ​​​​​​​
