According to OK” magazine, the death of Leonardo DiCaprio´s grandmother in 2008 forced him to rethink his priorities. DiCaprio has suggested that he is thinking of starting a family.
“I definitely feel a need to make my life about more than just my career,” Leonardo said.
“I was thinking to myself how little of it has been lived normally as opposed to being spent on some far-off movie location. Family is something I am starting to think about more & more, especially now that my grandmother is no longer around. It makes you think about the impermanence of things & how important it is to be part of a family – to have some meaning apart from your work.”
Leo has been dating Bar Refaeli since 2006, but the model was recently advised not to marry him because he is not Jewish.
