Kate Winslet has spoken about why her and Leonardo DiCaprio never got together, and if you listen closely, you can hear everyone making the same joke.
"Because she didn't let him on the door in Titanic." Everyone else thought of it before you, and it's not even that funny.
Anyway, let's just get it out of the way now, before all the arguments arise, Jack could have fit on the bit of wreckage with Rose, but if he had, the storyline wouldn't have worked and the ending would have been shit.

Winslet and DiCaprio had an unrivaled chemistry on screen back in 1997, so much so that people really wanted their on-screen romance to become a real romance.
Whether that says more about their acting or our dismal expectations remains to be seen, but if they were to drink loads of Guinness in an Irish bar and get it on in a car in real life, it'd be "omg totez emosh" for a lot of people.
Sad then, that Winslet never actually fancied the Lothario, who seems to have a model girlfriend for each day of the week.

"We were both very young and luckily, and this was the fortunate thing, we never fancied each other," she said on ITV's Lorraine
"I know that's really annoying to hear, sorry. We really never did. So it did mean that we were able to tease each other, which we still do, which is really amazing."
It must be a shock to the system for DiCaprio, who must be used to everyone fancying him, but given that they're good mates, he's probably not too scarred.
It's been 20 years since the film was released, much to the disbelief of Winslet.

"The lovely thing about Titanic for me now, my children and their friends say, 'Oh, I love the bit in Titanic when you did...' they are reciting lines from Titanic that I've long forgotten," she said on the show.
"There's another generation of children who are enjoying it and loving it for the first time. It's like Mary Poppins I like to think."
Earlier in the week, appearing on Good Morning America ahead of the release of her new film The Mountain Between Us, Kate was asked if it was true that she and Leo still quoted lines from Titanic to each other. She nodded in reply and said: "You know. I know you love us even more now!"

Opening up about their relationship, she added: "I do feel so grateful for that friendship. And honestly it is like family. It's one of those rare, Hollywood friendships that I just feel very, very blessed to have.
"I sort of wish there was like a soap opera version of the story where actually Jack and Rose really do end up together. But no."
