DiCaprio, who's nominated for Best Actor at this year's ceremony, was dressed to impress in a classic tuxedo opposite his model partner, who made her Academy Awards debut. In fact, the outing marked the first time the couple attended the Oscars together since they began dating around three years ago.

Their appearance at the awards show wasn't the only thing that debuted by the couple. For DiCaprio's part, he debuted a stylish mustache upon his arrival on the red carpet, marking a comeback of the actor's facial hair with a bold statement. He wore a black tuxedo and a matching black bowtie. For added charm, he pinned a golden bee brooch onto the left lapel of his jacket.

The model wore a stunning red dress, which was on full display when the broadcast flashed to the couple sitting alongside each other inside the ceremony. DiCaprio walked the red carpet solo before joining Ceretti inside.

DiCaprio and Ceretti have never attended a U.S. awards show together before the 2026 Oscars. The Best Actor nominee has been intentional about keeping his relationships private. The actor brought his mother, Irmelin Indenbirken, 82, as his date to the 2026 Golden Globe Awards and the BAFTAs. The mother-son duo shares a close connection and has attended major award shows alongside each other in the past.

One Battle After Another earned 13 nominations, including DiCaprio's Best Actor nod. While the show is still ongoing, the film has already won for Best Adapted Screenplay (Paul Thomas Anderson), Best Supporting Actor (Sean Penn) and Best Casting.

DiCaprio and Ceretti have been dating for nearly three years, dating back to around August 2023. In photos obtained by Page Six, the duo were pictured strolling around Santa Barbara, Calif., while enjoying iced coffees and ice cream cones. "She is very cute, sweet and charming," a source told PEOPLE in April 2024 of DiCaprio and Ceretti's then-budding romance at the time.

In April 2025, the model posed for the cover of Vogue France. In it, she told the magazine that dating someone as famous as DiCaprio is "something you learn." "If what you're experiencing is real, if you know you love each other, then there's no reason to be alarmed," she said. "Because love protects and gives confidence."
