At 32 years of age, Jack Whitehall’s model girlfriend Roxy Horner is obviously way too old for Leo DiCaprio, but he still managed to hook up with her when she was in her early – mid 20s, before unceremoniously dumping her when she turned 25 (as per the rules of Leo’s Law).
Fast forward to 2024, and Jack Whitehall has been dating Roxy Horner for four years, with the couple recently welcoming their first child together. But that doesn’t mean a part of Jack Whitehall isn’t still seething over the fact that Leo was once routinely banging his missus (and vice versa, I suppose).
Whitehall addressed the issue in his new Netflix special, Settle Down, saying: “That is a great act to have to follow. You know how depressing that is. I mean mainly depressing knowing that the only reason your girlfriend is with you is because she turned 26.”
He mentions he can no longer watch classic movies featuring DiCaprio without having intrusive thoughts about what he and Horner got up to in the bedroom, not to mention the downgrade Horner made. He says: “She went from the Wolf of Wall Street to the Labradoodle of London.” Classic.
Still, as endearingly self-deprecating as Jack Whitehall is, a part of him must also feel pretty chuffed about the fact that this girlfriend is so attractive that even Leo DiCaprio wanted to hook up with her. It all depends on how you choose to look at it, I suppose. Anyway – congrats to the happy couple!
