We'll never let go of the
idea of Rose and Jack! More than 16
years after the release of Titanic ,
Kate Winslet opened up about her on-
screen love Leonardo DiCaprio , and
whether anything romantic ever went
down between the two off camera.
"I think the reason that friendship
works is because there was never any
romantic thing," Winslet, 38, told
Marie Claire UK for a November issue
cover story interview.
Winslet and DiCaprio appeared in
Titanic in their early 20s, playing the
star-crossed lovers Rose and Jack
aboard the doomed ship. Though
they've voiced their affection for one
another multiple times in the years
since — DiCaprio even walked her
down the aisle at her 2012 wedding
to husband Ned Rocknroll — Winslet
maintained in her Marie Claire
interview that there has never been
anything more between the two.
"It's so disappointing for people to
hear that, because in the soap opera
of the Kate and Leo story we fell in
love at first sight and had a million
snogs, but actually we never did," she
continued. "He always saw me as one
of the boys. I've never really been a
girly-girl."
While they never became romantically
involved, Winslet touched on the
emotional connection that she and
DiCaprio, now 39, formed while
making the Oscar-winning film and
later, dealing the with ensuing
pandemonium that came with the
release of Titanic . The massive hit
brought in more than $2 billion at the
worldwide box office.
"We needed each other to lean on
because we were very young and
working all kinds of crazy bloody
hours and it was a shock to the
system," she said.
DiCaprio has gone on the record with
his love for Winslet in the past.
"She's the greatest person," he told
USA Today of Winslet . "She's so
genuine. I love that girl."
