A few months after being elected Miss France 2001, Elodie Gossuin met Leonardo DiCaprio. And even if it could have been a good time for the former beauty queen, this one very badly took the approach of the actor to seduce her.
She did not let herself be appeased. On December 9, 2000, the life of Elodie Gossuin took a magical turn when she was elected, in front of millions of spectators and television viewers, Miss France 2001. From then on, the one who now writes a chronicle for Femininemultiplies the evenings and meets many personalities until cross paths with a certain Leonardo DiCaprio. Made famous a few years earlier for his role as Jack Dawson in titanic, the actor already had, at the time, a real reputation as a don Juan. And he did not fail to try everything for everything in order to to seduce Elodie Gossuinas revealed by the latter in a special issue of the magazine Paris herepublished in 2020, for the centenary of the Miss France contest.
Now 42 years old, Elodie Gossuin could boast of having, at 19, caught the eye of Leonardo DiCaprio. However, the young woman at the time did not not at all well lived their meetingwhich she even found particularly “insulting”. “It was at a party. He came to tell me that he was sleeping at the Hôtel de Crillon and gave me his suite number like he was giving me a gift”she then explained to the magazine, confident that she had then taken this invitation as “an insult”. “I felt humiliated and I told him he was in the wrong person. I might have had a great night of love, but I don’t regret saying no”, she said then. Without regret.

Elodie Gossuin “proud” to have said no
Now the mother of four children, Jules and Rose, born in 2007, and Léonard and Joséphine (born in 2013), Elodie Gossuin is also a happy wife in love alongside her husband Bertrand Lacherie. Already in 2014, she returned to her mixed encounter with Leonardo DiCaprio on the show Do not touch My TV on C8. At the time, she said she had not responded to the actor’s invitation, explaining that she was not “an easy girl”to the point of now being “proud not to have been one more”. And for good reason, if Elodie Gossuin sent him on the roses, Leonardo DiCaprio probably did not take long to find a new conquest, he who is, even today, more famous for having frequented many young women than for his celibacy.
