In the movie, she was supposed to be 17. Bodine says: "Rose DeWitt Bukater died on the Titanic. At the age of 17. If she'd've lived, she'd be over a hundred now."
Rose changed her last name to "Dawson" to honor Jack's memory after the sinking of the Titanic. Rose completely started over and never contacted her mother and Cal again after the sinking. Rose became a successful actress in the 1920s and eventually married a man named Calvert.
Born November 11, 1974, in Los Angeles, the eternally-youthful-looking DiCaprio was 23 when "Titanic" was first released in theaters in December 1997. Winslet, on the other hand, was 22 when the film premiered. Her character Rose was 17.
However, it's important to note that the character of Jack Dawson is fictional and not based on a real person. The portrayal of his origin in the film is part of the storytelling and character development within the movie.
Who are the Titanic survivors? Most records show that 705 people survived the sinking of the Titanic—most of which were women and children. However, Encylopedia-Britannica.org, found and listed as many as 712 survivors in their own research and the numbers continue to be disputed.
The Heart of the Ocean in the Titanic film is not a real piece of jewellery, but is hugely popular nonetheless. The jewellery is, however, based on a real diamond, the 45.52-carat Hope Diamond.

The average lifespan of an iceberg in the North Atlantic is typically two to three years from calving to melting. This means the iceberg that sank the Titanic "likely broke off from Greenland in 1910 or 1911, and was gone forever by the end of 1912 or sometime in 1913."
Dawson died, along with thousands of other people, after Titanic's tragic encounter with a North-Atlantic iceberg. His final resting place is at Fairview Lawn Cemetery in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Click on the image for a better view of J. Dawson's grave marker.
The sinking would condemn more than 1,500 to die in the frigid North Atlantic, but someone conspicuously not among the dead that night was the ship's chief baker Charles Joughin, who survived history's worst maritime disaster by getting incredibly soused.
New York, U.S.A. Jack Dawson (born 1892-1912) is the deuteragonist in Titanic and the love interest of Rose DeWitt Bukater. He dies at the end of the film from hypothermia, protecting Rose by having her float on a doorframe while he stays in the water; he was only twenty years old.
Suddenly we're brought back to Jack's eventual death due to one important detail — his heart condition.

Originally Answered: Did Jack and Rose from the Titanic have a child? No, Rose married after Jack's death and had a child. Rose's adult granddaughter is with old Rose in the beginning and end of the movie.
They truly loved eachother. After Jack died rose took up his name because in her mind they were ment to be married and to honor of Jack. Rose lived her life like how Jack wanted to, doing everything they promised they would to together. It only makes sense when she died she would be reunited with her one true love.
Rose's father died and left her mother and her with nothing but his debts. Her financially troubled mother Ruth has forced Rose to accept an engagement to Cal, an arrogant wealthy Englishman whom Rose does not love.
The most accepted interpretation, however, is that about Rose dying at the end of Titanic and arriving at the afterlife with Jack and the rest of the passengers, and if so, the white dress hints at her going to heaven with everyone else.
Eventually, Rose became fed up with Cal's constant arguing with her and his abusive actions he often did to her, such as throwing their breakfast table at her and threatening her when he began to suspect she was having a love affair with Jack Dawson.
It becomes a symbol of his loss of control over his fiancée, and to Rose, it becomes a symbol of her freedom and love for Jack. During the final moments of the boat's sinking in Titanic's ending, Cal convinces Rose to leave Jack behind and board a lifeboat.
