Leonardo DiCaprio plans proposal to Bar Refaeli

[HMG] – After three years of romance and break-ups that kept them both in the spotlight for months, it seems Leonardo DiCaprio and Bar Refaeli are finally ready to take the next step.

Friends of 35-year old DiCaprio say the Actor plans to propose to 24-year old Bar on Valentine’s Day — and it’s all thanks to his momma, who finally got Leo’s butt off the fence.

“Leo’s mom, Irmelin never forgave him for missing the boat with his ex, Gisele Bundchen,” a friend tells the Enquirer. “She told him at Christmas, ‘You had better not let this one get away!’” they revealed.

The pair split last June, then rekindled their romance with a break in the Bahamas over Thanksgiving. This was followed with a week in Cabo San Lucas over the holidays — and that’s when Leo finally made up his mind to propose;

“Leo was toying with the idea of proposing on Valentine’s Day, but he told his mom the decider would be how they got on in Cabo,” says the friend. “His mom called him on New Year’s and Leo told her, ‘You’re right, as usual. I don’t want to let her go.’”

And the trip down to Mexico sounds like it was quite a hit;

“Then Leo told Mom about a romantic New Year’s Eve dinner, and that they walked on a secluded beach at sunset. He said he was truly in love and couldn’t wait to become engaged to Bar.”

About freakin’ time!

And now our hero’s finally extracted his head from its somewhat pungent position, he has his eye on some big-ticket bling;

“Now he’s ready to marry Bar, Leo’s planning to buy a rare, canary-yellow diamond ring that caught his eye recently.” says another snitch. “Bar was hoping for a ring around the holidays, but Leo thought it would be better to surprise her on Valentine’s Day.”

A noble idea. And what better way than by leaking your plans to a downmarket tabloid, so Bar and half the civilized world can read all about it before the big day?

Indecisive, insensitive  dork…
