I guess I was raised to be grateful and just get on with it. I didn't feel it was my right to be miserable, and if I was miserable I certainly would not have let a journalist know. There is no way I would have let that slip!"

Leonardo has always been praised for his talent and his charm, however, it is quite interesting that Kate Winslet, who knows him personally. The actress gushed about his friend calling him, loyal, handsome, and a great friend.

"He's a solid, loyal person," she said. "He's a great friend, he always has been, and not just to me, but to everyone around him. He still has friends he had when we made Titanic. In many ways, he hasn't changed a bit, but in other ways, he absolutely has changed."

"He's a stronger actor in this moment than he's ever been," she said. "I think he's more handsome than he's ever been. And he feels, to me, the most settled he's ever felt, in himself, right now, which is quite strange, really, given that there's a lot happening around him."
