      Where did the 25 come from? And you’re just assuming everyone marries at 18? Really only one of those numbers makes sense.

        • 25: OP mentioned DiCaprio
        • 18: yes, the normal legal minimal marriage age in most of the civilized world. Why, where do you live?

          The legal minimal mariage age doesn’t mean it’s the avarage age someone does marriage, in Europe the country that has the lowest avarage is Belarus with 27.1, in the Americas it’s Nicaragua with 22.5, i could continue but it’s basically 21/22 for all the others

          Edit: the lowest age of mariage in all continents* avarage is 23.15

          *except oceania, wikipedia has only the median so i excluded it because otherwise it would be wrong

      Can you explain this maths?

      Edit: I understand it, your maths shows why the celebrity would leave their long-term partner as by their new standards, the partner would be 23 years too old

        OP calls it the DiCaprio approach, but DiCaprio is known for breaking off relationships when they turn 25.

        The joke is that the meme implies a 25 year old married for 30 years
