X FACTOR star Diana Vickers has revealed that she was invited to ‘party’ at Leonardp DiCaprio’s house, as she discussed her bizarre theory on his dating ‘system.’

Diana co-hosts a new Metro podcast named Just Between Us, alongside sex columnist Alice Giddings.
She said: “I did meet Leo once. He will have no memory of meeting me. One of his mates invited me around to his house.
“I thought it was going to be a party. Then I ended up just sitting with him watching telly.”
Diana called it a “really, really bizarre moment.”

She then shared her theory on his dating ‘system,’ continuing: “I think he has this system.
“So, Leo’s obviously at the helm of it – and he surrounds himself with these good-looking lads, who are all looking for a good time.
“The good-looking lads go and source these hot women for him – it’s really dodgy.
“That stuff happens a lot in Hollywood. These men have got so much fame and power, and they don’t want to grow up.”
She added: “They just want to be surrounded by beautiful young women all the time. I am not generalising Leo here, I think that’s just what happens. It’s quite weird actually.”
During the chat, Diana revealed that she’d dated men older and younger than her.
She said: “One of the last guys I dated was five years younger than me – I did feel it. It was why we didn’t work out.
“When you’re older, you want to put in the graft – you want to see things through. You don’t dwell on smaller things as much.
“This guy just gave off immature energy – he was constantly holding on to things. I think I maybe acted immature because he was less mature.
“It made me feel less of my older, feminine energy. I sort of reverted back. It was a lot of fun though.’
And according to a relationship expert, men like Leo tend to go for age gaps because it makes them feel younger — but that’s not the only reason.
Lovehoney’s sex and relationship expert, Annabelle Knight, is a bestselling author and a celebrity relationship coach.
Last year, she spoke to The U.S. Sun, she broke down why men in their 50s and beyond sometimes prefer dating women around half their age.
“High-profile men have been dating younger women for decades,” she said.
More and more are coming forward with younger and younger girlfriends, like former New England Patriots general manager Bill Belichick, 72, who recently went public with Jordan Hudson, 24.
“This has always been a trend in Tinseltown,” Knight said.
“Look back at any decade in the past and you’ll be able to think of a couple with a big age gap — whether it’s Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas, or Frank Sinatra with Mia Farrow,” she added.
The “prevalence of these relationships in Hollywood” may be down to the rules “feeling slightly different” there.
She added that many societal pressures may influence some men’s preference towards younger women, especially in Hollywood.
She said it “could be easier not to feel as constrained by societal norms as the average person does.”
Leo’s oldest partner was model Gigi Hadid, 27, in 2022.
His longest relationships have been five years with model Gisele Bundchen, five with model Bar Refaeli and four with actress Camila Morrone — all of whom were ditched aged 25.
Others were actresses and models Erin Heatherton aged 22, Kelly Rohrbach, 25, Toni Garrn, 21 and Nina Agdal, 25.
Vittoria Ceretti is the actor’s current partner.
