Leonardo DiCaprio girl Eden Polani steps out as he distances herself from her

Eden Polani was seen arriving alone in New York on Tuesday as sources close to Leonardo DiCaprio furiously denied they were dating.

The model, 19, was pictured sitting next to the Titanic star, 48, at a party, sparking a huge wave of Twitter comments due to their 29-year age difference.

Eden was a solo figure when she picked up her luggage at JFK Airport, after sources close to Leo insisted they weren’t dating.

The Paris-born model looked casual in a brown overcoat with white jeans and a Celine baseball cap as she wheeled her suitcase through the terminal.

On Tuesday, sources close to Leo hit back at claims the pair were dating after they were seen side by side at a party, though they declined to comment on whether there had ever been a romantic connection between them.

They said, “They sat next to each other at a music listening party. There were a number of people at that event.’

It comes in the wake of the ongoing controversy surrounding Leonardo’s dating habits; the Titanic star only dates women under the age of 25, and even split from his last serious girlfriend, Camila Morrone, weeks after she hit the milestone.

News that the Oscar winner may have become involved with someone less than half his age sparked outrage on social media after he was pictured with Eden at Detroit-born singer Ebony Riley’s release party for her new EP .

Apparently missing from the event, however, was Leo’s current girlfriend Victoria Lamas, who, at age 23, is 25 years his junior and nearly half his age.

While sources close to Leo have denied that there is a long-term romance between him and Eden, the model seems well aware of the new attention she’s getting.

On Tuesday morning, she shared a photo of what appears to be a New York City hotel to her Instagram Stories, tagging the location as “New York” and writing, “Long time no see.”

But just over an hour after the photo was posted — amid the furious outrage erupting on social media over their supposed romance — Eden had mysteriously deleted the photo.

Born in Paris to a French mother and an Israeli father, Eden has signed with several agencies, including IT Models, which focuses on boutique fashion, and Kult Models in Germany.

The young beauty was encouraged to do modeling for several years but never took it seriously until she was discovered by ITM Models, according to Glamor Bulgaria, where she was a cover model.

Despite the model’s ever-expanding portfolio, DiCaprio’s fans quickly took notice of her young age, and Twitter went wild with the news that her high school education was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Plus, she wasn’t even born when Titanic was released in 1997 – over 25 years ago.

One person commented, “Kate Winslet was 22 when she was nominated for an Oscar for Titanic. That’s three years older than Leonardo DiCaprio’s current girlfriend.”

“Leonardo DiCaprio’s New Girlfriend Wasn’t Even Born When Titanic Was Released.”

Others wrote about how she was in school when Leo was already an established movie actor.

“DiCaprio’s girlfriend is so young she probably studied the Romeo and Juliet movie he starred in when she was in school.”

“Leonardo DiCaprio’s new girlfriend is so young her high school education was interrupted by COVID-19, weirrrrrrrd.”

“Can someone explain to me what a man of nearly 50 has in common with *checks notes* a 19-year-old?”

“Someone has to stop Leonardo DiCaprio. It was funny 10 girlfriends ago.”

“Leonardo DiCaprio is only concerned about climate change because he wants to leave a better world for his girlfriends.”

The star has always made headlines with his relationships, famously dating model Gisele Bündchen for five years, starting when she was 18, to a five-year romance with Bar Refaeli that ended when she turned 25.
