Leonardo DiCaprio donates £7.6m for his grandmother’s homeland Ukraine
The Independent says Leonardo DiCaprio has donated £7.6m to Ukraine, which has been fighting a Russian invasion for the past two weeks.
The 47-year-old actor has a personal connection to the war-ridden nation as his maternal grandmother Helene Indenbirken was born in Odesa. She migrated to Germany with her parents in 1917.
DiCaprio was quite close to his grandmother, who according to multiple reports, always supported his acting career.
Indenbirken died at the age of 93 in 2008. She used to accompany DiCaprio to the premieres of many of his films.
