Kate Winslet: I Was Never Romantic With Leo DiCaprio

They made one of the most iconic pairings in modern cinema, but Kate Winslet has insisted that her romance with Titanic co-star Leonardo DiCaprio was strictly for the cameras.

And the 38-year-old actress told Marie Claire that she thinks they've stayed such good friends precisely because they never crossed that line.

"I think the reason that friendship works is because there was never any romantic thing," she explained.

"It's so disappointing for people to hear that, because in the soap opera of the Kate and Leo story we fell in love at first sight and had a million snogs, but actually we never did.

"He always saw me as one of the boys; I've never really been a girly-girl. We needed each other to lean on because we were very young and working all kinds of crazy bloody hours and it was a shock to the system."

And Winslet revealed that she actually hid her pregnancy from producers during the making of her new movie, A Little Chaos.

"I didn't have a bump at all, so no one knew and I made them sew stretchy panels into the corset without telling them why," she explained.

"But my boobs are gigantic in the film and now it's like, how did no one guess?"
