SYDNEY — Blake Lively took a trip Down Under to visit new love Leonardo DiCaprio while he films “The Great Gatsby” in Sydney, the Herald Sun reported Wednesday.
Lively was forced to celebrate her 24th birthday solo last week and so DiCaprio arranged for a belated birthday celebration at Sydney hotspot, Aria, Saturday night.
After the weekend festivities, they were spotted together at Sydney’s Featherdale Wildlife Park Tuesday, where staff arranged a VIP visit for the lovebirds.
“They were both so nice and down to earth. There was certainly no diva behavior. Leo was asking about the endangered animals,” the park’s marketing manager Kellie Ames told the Herald Sun.
“Blake was absolutely beautiful,” Ames added about the lovely “Gossip Girl” star, dressed in jeans, a floral top and camel colored fedora for the zoo visit.
The secretive pair were first rumored to be a couple in May, getting cozy on the French Riviera during the Cannes Film Festival and they then extended their European sojourn for a dreamy vacation in Italy.
DiCaprio, 36, and the fashionable actress continued their romance stateside, spending time together in New York, where they were pictured riding bikes together.
The Academy Award nominee traveled to Australia in August to begin work on his title role of Jay Gatsby in Baz Luhrmann’s film adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic tale.
The movie also stars Carey Mulligan as Daisy Buchanan and Tobey Maguire as Nick Carraway.
