The Crazy Way Leonardo DiCaprio Is Connected to Jamie Dornan

When people talk about "Hollywood," they are usually referring to the celebrity world that stretches far beyond the city limits of LA. But while glamorous events involving our favorite stars happen all over the world, "Hollywood" can actually be a pretty small place. Much like high school, everyone seems to know everyone, and in addition to the many connections people form through working together, they also tend to form connections through people they date. From Leonardo DiCaprio's many girlfriends to Britney Spears's romances to the many forgotten couples of years past, there is a lot more common ground between some of the biggest stars than you might think. Keep reading to unfold the twisted love web that connects Leo to Jamie Dornan.

Leo romanced Blake for a few short months back in the Spring and Summer of 2011. After getting cozy all over the South of France during the Cannes Film Festival, the pair were spotted sightseeing in Italy, holding hands in LA, and grabbing lunch in Santa Monica.

In what has to be considered one of Hollywood's most iconic couples, Justin began dating his former Mickey Mouse Club costar and childhood sweetheart, Britney Spears, back in 1999. The two made numerous cute appearances together before abruptly breaking up in March 2002. Rumors swirled that the split was caused by infidelity on Britney's part, and while songs from both parties seem to back that up, neither has ever confirmed it.
