Kate, 44, and Leo, 45, first met 24 years ago on the set of Titanic in 1996. They had an instant connection, with Leo saying, “our chemistry naturally happened on screen.” He also described them as “a unique mechanism that works perfectly together”.
While Kate confirms that she and Leo are “very, very close”, she has always insisted that their relationship has never turned into romantic territory.

“It’s always been ‘wrong place, wrong time’ for them,” the source explains.
“However, I think they both pretend that everything is friendly and that she is playing this horny but matron role with him, but they both know how he feels.
Kate is currently avoiding the global pandemic at her home in the English countryside with her third husband, Edward Abel Smith, and three children.
However, she is expected to return to the United States in a few weeks to resume filming the HBO limited series, Easttown mare. Our source says Leo is hoping they can schedule a much-needed catch-up when she gets there.
“They’ve been doing FaceTiming a lot lately, but he much prefers to see her in person,” continues the boyfriend. “They have a special bond that he will never have with anyone else.
