‘It’s his year!’: Kate Winslet totally has Leo’s back for the Oscar win

This is one Hollywood pairing that we will always wish ended up together. 

Kate Winslet has revealed her undying support for her Titanic co-star and good friend, Leonardo DiCaprio, in his bid for an Academy Award this year. 

The American actor, who has been nominated for the prestigious award five times, is suspected to finally achieve a win for his turn in the Revenant this awards season. 

While she should perhaps be backing her Steve Jobs co-star Michael Fassbender for the Best Actor Oscar win, good 'ol Kate can't help but show her support for the 41-year-old actor. 

"I think you can sort of feel it, and I think that everyone wants it for him," she revealed to BBC News. 

"It would be amazing. It’s also slightly difficult for me too, because Michael Fassbender has been nominated and I was his right hand woman for three months whilst we were making Steve Jobs and I saw how hard he worked. I think his performance is so extraordinary.

"But I think yeah, you can sort of feel the temperature. It’s probably going to be Leo’s year."

Yeah, we reckon she wants to see him win almost as much as we do. 

Kate is also in the running for an Academy Award this year as she is nominated for the Best Supporting Actress for her role as Joanna Hoffman in Steve Jobs.

She already holds an Oscar for her role in the Reader in 2009.
