Kendall Jenner is reportedly 'very smitten' with actor Jacob Elordi, according to a source who spoke to People magazine. The 30-year-old model and the 29-year-old 'Euphoria' star have been dating since spring 2026 and are said to be completely in sync.
The insider revealed that Jenner's family is 'delighted' to see her so happy. Elordi has been welcomed with open arms by the Kardashian-Jenner clan. 'It hasn't been very long, but it feels like they've been together forever. They're on the same wavelength,' the source said.
Jenner and Elordi have spent the past few months traveling the world, visiting Australia—Elordi's home country—as well as Hawaii and Japan. The source added that 'Kendall loves his laid-back vibe and finds him very easy to live with.'
Rumors of a romance first surfaced in March 2026 when the duo was seen chatting at the Vanity Fair Oscar party. They were later spotted together at Justin Bieber's Coachella party in April, and in May they had a double date with Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet.
Kendall Jenner's Relationship History
Kendall Jenner has had a string of high-profile relationships. She previously dated NBA player Devin Booker on and off from 2020 to 2022. She also had a brief romance with rapper Bad Bunny in 2023. More recently, she was linked to musician Harry Styles in early 2025, though neither confirmed the relationship. Jenner is known for being private about her personal life, but her family's reality show 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' and its spinoffs have often featured glimpses of her relationships.
Jenner began her modeling career at age 14 and quickly rose to fame as one of the 'Kardashian-Jenner' sisters. She has walked for top designers like Chanel, Versace, and Givenchy, and has appeared on the covers of Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and Elle. In addition to modeling, she has launched her own tequila brand, 818 Tequila, which has been a commercial success.
Jacob Elordi's Rise to Fame
Jacob Elordi, born in Brisbane, Australia, first gained international attention for his role as Noah Flynn in the Netflix 'The Kissing Booth' franchise (2018–2021). He then landed the critically acclaimed role of Nate Jacobs in HBO's 'Euphoria,' for which he received widespread praise. Elordi has also appeared in films such as 'The Mortuary Collection' (2019), '2 Hearts' (2020), and 'The Sweet East' (2023).
