>
Maria Beregova, the Ukrainian model linked to newly single Leonardo DiCaprio, cut a casual figure on Thursday as she was spotted out and about in London.
The brunette stunner, 22, slipped into a form-fitting sporty black ensemble as she and a pal grabbed a healthy green juice and enjoyed a stroll around Hyde Park amid rumours she’s dating the Titanic star, 47.
It follows the news of Leo’s shock split with American model Camila Morrone, 25, who he dated for four years.
New love interest? Maria Beregova, the Ukrainian model linked to newly single Leonardo DiCaprio, cut a casual figure on Thursday as she was spotted out and about in London
Speculation that Maria and Leonardo were dating began when they were napped partying together in St Tropez in July – with the beauty having jetted off to the south of France after splitting with her husband, Ahmed Masoud Abdelhafid, 30.
Beregova strutted a short distance behind the star as they boarded the luxury boat, flaunting her figure as she pulled her hair back into a sleek ponytail.
Leaving the glitz and glam of St Tropez behind, Maria opted for a more relaxed look as she enjoyed stroll around the capital – where she is currently studying to take over her families pharamcetucal enterprise.
Maria, who grew up in Switzerland where she attended a private boarding school, donned a black Wolford turtleneck jumper, which she teamed with a coordinating black hoodie and matching leggings by Chrome Hearts.

She accessorised her look with cross pendant, chunky black lace-up Prada boots and a black designer handbag.
Keeping her overall look simple, the model left her straight brunette tresses to fall loosely about her shoulders while highlighting her natural beauty with a minimal make-up palette.

It comes as the 22 year-old was snapped partying with Leonardo around the same time she began using her maiden name after divorcing her husband – whose grandfather was Colonel Muammar Gaddafi’s henchman.

The stunning Ukrainian reverted to her maiden name of Beregova during the trip, where she was pictured with Leo.
Her former spouse Abdelhafid, who runs a property and fashion empire in Monaco, is the grandson of an interior minister and loyalist servant to the ruthless despot Gaddafi.
Massoud Abdelhafid was labelled as the Libyan dictator Gadaffi’s ‘right hand man’ and ‘walking encyclopedia’.
After Gaddafi was overthrown and killed, Massoud senior escaped to Cairo where he was reported to have died from illness in 2015.

Beregova posted several stunning pictures in Saint Tropez, as well as showing off her luxury room at Villa Belrose, costing $1,220 a night, in July.
She was snapped wearing a $150 Noma Kamali skimpy black halter neck mini dress, paired with Mach & Mach $1,100 diamond silver pumps.
It is unclear when the divorce with her husband was agreed, and if there was a settlement, but it is thought to have been finalised in Monaco where the pair lived.
She follows the Titanic star on Instagram, but he does not follow her account back.
It comes as Academy Award winner Leonardo and his much younger girlfriend reportedly ‘quietly’ ended their relationship earlier this summer, a source close told The Sun on Tuesday.
It seems to reinforce Leo’s pattern of never publicly dating a woman over the age of 25.
Insiders close to DiCaprio claimed to the publication that he and Morrone had been growing apart recently.
‘Leo and Camila ended their relationship over the summer,’ a source said. ‘There are no bad feelings between them. It just came to a natural conclusion.’
