Kate Winslet Breaks Down in Tears During Leonardo DiCaprio’s Acceptance Speech


This is the moment that Kate Winslet was captured on camera tearing up as her good friend Leonardo DiCaprio finally won an Oscar.

The pair have been BFFs since filming Titanic in 1996, and it was obvious that Leo’s win also meant a lot to Kate, who had previously admitted she was only going to the ceremony so she could see him pick up the gong.

Leo’s win came after five previous nominations and the star received a standing ovation from the audience.


In his speech he thanked his friends and family and took the opportunity to warn the world of the dangerous effects of climate change.

Kate was nominated for her performance in Steve Jobs but told the BBC earlier this month that she felt ‘very strongly that it may possibly be Leo’s year’ and that ‘he is my closest friend in the world, and I just couldn’t imagine not being there to support him’.


The two were later seen holding each other tightly as they spoke after the ceremony and it was a sight that would have no doubt pleased all the Kate and Leo shippers out there, especially after they surprised everyone by turning up to the ceremony together.


It came after the BAFTAs two weeks ago when they held hands after Kate’s unexpected win for her role alongside Michael Fassbender in Steve Jobs.
