Leonardo DiCaprio has kept his distance from Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs after a photo was released showing him at one of the music legend’s infamous “white parties”.
The resurfaced photos show DiCaprio laughing and smoking at a party Combs hosted at his East Hampton home in 1998.
According to a close source, the 49-year-old Hollywood star hasn’t spoken to Diddy “in years,” reports the Daily Mail.
Last week, police arrested Combs, 54, on charges of racketeering, sex trafficking and trafficking for prostitution.
The rapper is accused of forcing women to “freak off,” which is an “elaborate and staged sex performance.”
According to reports, a thousand bottles of baby oil were recovered during a raid at his premises. Prosecutors claim that the women who were part of the bizarre act needed IV drips because they would get so exhausted after the sex sessions.
Diddy, who once called the Titanic star the “number one person” on his invitation list for the White Party, was spotted with DiCaprio during the Democratic National Convention on July 29, 2004.
The actor was also spotted dancing next to Diddy during the rapper’s 50th birthday celebration in 2019.

Leonardo DiCaprio ‘has nothing to do with this…’
Speaking to the Daily Mail, a source close to the A-lister claimed that DiCaprio has nothing to do with Diddy’s case and never got involved in the “freak off”. They added that the actor “hasn’t been in contact” with the disgraced rapper for years.
“Leonardo DiCaprio has nothing to do with any of this,” the source insisted, admitting he was a part of a few Diddy parties in the early 2000s, just like other celebrities. Those parties “weren’t weird.”
According to the source, when Leo was at the beginning of his career, these used to be big house parties, but the star has moved on from partying now.
“He has no connection to that world, so for anyone to assume he would be implicated in it based on some blurry photos that are over 20 years old is ridiculous.”
The insider went on to say that DiCaprio is currently focused on his career and his relationship, and is “not thinking at all” about the rapper’s federal case because the actor has “nothing to do” with it.
