Leonardo DiCaprio, Bar Rafaeli Expecting
News that Leonardo DiCaprio is planning to wed stunning girlfriend Bar Rafaeli in the summer shocked many. But now we may know the real reason they're getting hitched so quickly. Word reaches us that the couple, who have been dating for just 15 months, are expecting their first child. Friends claim that Bar - who is the first Israeli model to appear in Sports Illustrated magazine - is due in late autumn. They add that she and Titanic hunk Leo are "delighted". An excited Leo has said he can't wait to be a dad, especially since his best mate, Spider-Man star Tobey Maguire, became a father last November. Our spy reveals: "He dotes on Tobey's little girl Ruby and has been asking him all about what it's like being a dad."
There was speculation last month that 21-year-old Bar might be pregnant when she wore a loose-fitting top to a bash at Jet Nightclub at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. She also stuck to mineral water all night. Leonardo, 32, is thought to have proposed very recently, and when he and Bar holidayed in Israel she is said to have officially introduced him to her family - and held a secret engagement party there.
American reports suggest they will have a private wedding ceremony in Israel, followed by a bigger bash in the US toward the end of the year.
We can reveal that Leo's people have already been in contact with several exclusive venues in Tel Aviv about catering for various aspects of the wedding. The five-star Dan Accadia Herzliya Hotel has been contacted about staging the wedding party, while sources at the lavish King David Hotel in the Old City say Leo's people have asked about holding the ceremony there.
Leo started dating Bar after splitting from Gisele Bundchen. Early attempts to keep their affair secret failed when they were spotted on a series of romantic breaks in Paris, Prague and New York.
Neither will talk about their relationship - when we interviewed Bar recently, a PR warned us: "No questions about Leo!" But friends reveal that they are very much in love and busy planning a future together.
They just don't know it yet.
But they need to jump on that, so Ruby can have a lil bff.
Is it pronounced 'bar' like what you walk into to drink?
CLEVER.
btw I love your icon.
when he was younger he used to be really skinny and that made him look really tall. now he's bigger and maybe thats why he doesnt look as tall anymore?
But my friend is their real estate agent, and he says that she is like "phenomenally gorgeous" in person. Whatever, I don't trust boys' opinions. haha
I think it's a good career move.
It's creeping me out that a lot of my friends when I was younger are married and have kids. I'm still working to get a degree and just now in my first long-term relationship lol.
The worst part is that it seems that another one of my old friends gets engaged every other week. Weirds me out.
Of course, it is nice that my daughter is grown up and I'm still young enough to have fun hanging out with her - and we can borrow each other's clothes.
I might be wrong.
i think he's just afraid that theres no one else out there for him, however, because he lost his virginity to this girl.
shes a major mousey cunt, too. =< *TEAR*
personally, I'm aiming for no younger then 30. I think its kinda the perfect age because by then I should be economically stable and I think more inclined.
I can't believe some women have kids at 21 too. I mean, I love kids - I'm in school for LS and Illustration but... I really dont feel like having bleeding nips right now, hahaha.
I have two friends who are married, and at least 5 who are engaged. I haven't even been in a committed relationship yet. WTFrankie??
I was yawning when I read that and you totally screwed up my yawn, it turned into a cough and a choke.
That was friggin hilarious.
