Los Angeles, March 1

Actress Kate Winslet has reportedly urged her "Titanic" co-star and Oscar-winning actor Leonardo DiCaprio to get married and start his own family.

"Kate is completely overjoyed with Leo's Oscar win," an insider told hollywoodLife.com. 

"Now she wants to see him fulfil another dream -- getting married and starting a family. She knows without a doubt that Leo would be an exceptional dad," added the source. 

The insider also said that Winslet assured DiCaprio that being a father was the most interesting job a man could have. 

"She keeps telling him that once he experiences fatherhood, he'll fall madly in love with the greatest role ever! Kate has joked with him, but it's not really a joke, that she wants to meet all future girlfriends so she can determine if they are wife material," the source added. 

DiCaprio won his first Academy Award in the Actor in a Leading Role category for his power-packed performance in "The Revenant" at the Oscars ceremony held here on Sunday. 

Actor Leonardo DiCaprio’s Oscar for his lead role in "The Revenant" generated a whopping 440,000 tweets per minute, making it the most-tweeted moment of an Oscars telecast ever.

DiCaprio’s first-ever Academy Award, for which he received a standing ovation, shattered the previous Oscar record of 255,000 tweets per minute, set by host Ellen DeGeneres’ star-studded selfie back in 2014, according to metrics of the social media platform, reports ew.com.

DeGeneres herself was one of many celebrities who congratulated DiCaprio on his Oscar. 

The second and third most-tweeted moments of the 88th Oscars were "Spotlight" winning Best Picture and "Mad Max: Fury Road" picking up its sixth statue of the evening, for sound mixing.

The awards were held at the world-famous Dolby Theatre here on Sunday night.
