The insider also said that Camila felt that Oscar-winner Leo, 47, did not do enough to help her with his Hollywood connections.

The former couple split after four years of dating and the Titanic actor has since been linked to model Gigi Hadid.

The source said: “It was Camila who broke it off with Leo because he wanted her to be home having babies and she wants to have a career.

“He has got to that point in his life where he wants to have a family.

“But Camila has been working towards her dreams since she was 16, when she was in James Franco’s movie Bukowski.

“Leo didn't do anything for her career, she’s more upset about that than anything else.

'NO COMMITMENT'

“Everything that she did was on her own, even though she's been with him for four years.

“He could have introduced her to a bunch of people and put her in his movies.

“Her and her mother want to make it big in Hollywood. That’s always been her mother’s focus.

“Leo wanted her to have babies and stay home but if you want somebody to do that you’ve got to make a commitment. What commitment is he making?

“Leo wants to have a family but still play around."

“He didn't introduce her to anyone because he doesn't want her to be famous and have a career, obviously.

“Leo wants to have a family but still play around. A man who really wants to be committed would put a ring on it.”

Wolf of Wall Street star Leo was spotted in New York City over the weekend amid claims that his relationship with Gigi, 27, has been heating up.

MOVING ON

She is believed to be the first woman Leo has dated who is older than 25 and also the first who is a mother. 

Gigi shares two-year-old daughter Khai with former One Direction star Zayn Malik.

Meanwhile, Camila was on vacation with her lookalike mom Lucila Solá in St. Tropez in August when rumors began to swirl that her relationship with Leo was on the rocks.

Argentinean-born actress Lucila, 46, used to be acting legend Al Pacino’s long-time girlfriend and Camila regarded The Godfather actor as her stepfather.

In an interview with Late, Late Show host James Corden in 2018, Camila described how she begged Pacino for advice after landing her first role in Bukowski.

She revealed that the Oscar-winner told her: “Just be yourself, if you don't cry that's fine, just react to the act, and you'll be fine.”

Camila went on to land roles in upcoming Amazon miniseries Daisy Jones and the Six and movie Gonzo Girl alongside Patricia Arquette and Willem Defoe.

And in 2019 she received the Rising Star Award at the San Diego International Film Festival.

CENTER OF ATTENTION

In an in 2020, she spoke about the downside of being at the center of attention due to her high profile relationship with Leo.

She said: “It’s a little bit of a bummer because you’re really trying to do good work and be nice and be a good person, and in the meantime people wish negative things upon you.

“It would never take away the joy of the craft that I get to do.

“I’m really lucky in the sense that I have the privilege of being able to pick and choose what I do and only pick projects I really love and feel I can bring something to and I can learn from.”

In another interview in 2019 she said it was "frustrating" being mostly known for her romance with Leo.

She told the : "I feel like there should always be an identity besides who you're dating.
