Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi first caught everyone's attention in April 2026, igniting whispers of romance. Insiders revealed that the pair had been secretly spending time together for months before the public caught wind. Their chemistry was undeniable, first sparking at the iconic Coachella festival.
Fast forward to May, the two were photographed enjoying a Hawaiian getaway, followed by outings in Los Angeles with Kendall's sister Kylie and her beau Timothée Chalamet. "When Jacob started pursuing Kendall romantically, she was open to it right away," a source shared, highlighting the budding connection between the stars.
“They’ve developed an attraction and flirtation. It’s been fun for Kendall to have a new crush,” an insider revealed.
Their story, however, goes back even further than their romantic Hawaii and LA sightings. Back in 2022, they were spotted in Paris, mingling with friends. Although both were involved with other people at the time, it seems fate had other plans.
By March 2026, they were seen chatting at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party. Just a few weeks later, they were reportedly seen at Justin Bieber's Coachella after-party, allegedly heating things up with a make-out session.
In May, the pair's adventures continued. They were seen at a Fanatics party in LA with Kylie and Timothée, and later, TMZ captured them on a private beach in Kauaʻi, looking cozy but keeping things PDA-free. A source noted the chemistry was "obvious."
June brought more international escapades as Kendall and Jacob jetted off to Tokyo. They were spotted dining at Udon Shin, where the restaurant proudly shared their visit on Instagram. The following day, a Tokyo pizzeria also posted about the couple's visit, thanking them for their patronage.
The relationship, described as "new and casual," has the full support of Kendall's family. "Kylie has been encouraging Kendall and Jacob’s relationship," said an insider. With more double dates and group outings on the horizon, fans are eager to see where this whirlwind romance will lead next.
