Elsbeth on CBS Takes a Playful Jab at Leonardo DiCaprio

In a recent episode of CBS’s quirky procedural Elsbeth, Elsbeth, portrayed by Carrie Preston, found herself navigating the glamorous yet treacherous world of 90s supermodels. The episode, which aired on December 11, follows Elsbeth after a fallen supermodel returns to New York for a reunion that quickly spirals into a murder investigation. Elsbeth collaborates with fellow model Nadine, played by Laura Benanti, who humorously references actor Leonardo DiCaprio during their exploration of the model house.
Amidst their inquiries, Nadine reveals a hidden entrance that the models dubbed the “Leo latch,” playfully suggesting it was named for DiCaprio’s rumored late-night escapades. This witty moment underlines the show’s knack for incorporating celebrity culture while delivering entertainment and intrigue.
DiCaprio, a frequent subject of media scrutiny, has garnered attention not only for his array of high-profile relationships with models and actresses, but also for the significant age gaps present in many of these romances. His history includes notable figures like Gisele Bundchen, Naomi Campbell, and more recently, Camila Morrone, who was 23 years younger than him and had defended their relationship despite the age difference.
Following his split with Morrone, DiCaprio briefly dated supermodel Gigi Hadid and is now linked to 27-year-old model Vittoria Ceretti. Ceretti has expressed her feelings about navigating public perception in such relationships, emphasizing the challenges of being labeled as merely a “girlfriend” in the shadow of a partner’s fame. She noted that despite the societal labels, genuine love can persist and protect against external judgments.

In a reflective moment, DiCaprio recently discussed the insights gained from turning 50, highlighting a newfound desire for honesty and authenticity in his personal and professional connections. He articulated that advancing age has prompted him to become more selective about the people he surrounds himself with, emphasizing the importance of meaningful relationships over superficial ones.
Elsbeth continues to air on CBS on Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET, with new episodes available for streaming the following day on Paramount+. As the series cleverly intertwines pop culture and comedy with gripping storylines, it remains a fresh approach to the procedural genre, skillfully winking at the audience while tackling themes that resonate in today’s celebrity-obsessed society.
