The Don't Look Up star and his 26-year-old girlfriend, who have been linked since 2023, sparked concerns as the actor himself is the founder of the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation

Moreover, Leonardo DiCaprio has funded over $80 million in grants focused on climate change and sustainability.

The Inception actor's getaway is a result of scattered blazes which continues to pop up in Southern California.

As a result, more than 100,000 residents of the City of Angels have been forced to flee their homes and 24 have been confirmed dead.

Until now, more than 150,000 people in the city are under evacuation orders with more than 700 people taking refuge in nine shelters, officials said, according to CBC News.
