Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi are making waves without making headlines – at least not intentionally. These two megastars have been quietly getting to know each other over the last few months, keeping their budding romance as low-key as a Malibu sunset. While sources say Jenner "really likes" Elordi and both have strong feelings, they are in no rush to slap a label on whatever this is.
“They prefer to keep things private while they see where it goes,” shared an insider close to the pair, underscoring their desire to let things unfold naturally without the red carpet pressure.
Jenner and Elordi's romantic timeline kicked off around Coachella, with whispers of their connection echoing through the festival's desert oasis. Despite the public's curiosity, the couple is not interested in turning their relationship into a Hollywood spectacle.
The recent double date in Los Angeles, featuring Kendall, Jacob, Kylie Jenner, and Timothée Chalamet, only added fuel to the fire. The group was spotted cruising the LA streets, bringing a wave of nostalgia reminiscent of the paparazzi-frenzy of Y2K celebrity culture. Photos of Elordi behind the wheel, with Kendall in the passenger seat and her sister Kylie laughing it off in the back with Chalamet, instantly sparked online debates and comparisons to the iconic 2006 image of Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, and Paris Hilton.
Despite the buzz, there's no official word from the duo about their status. But those Y2K vibes were hard to miss – a car full of A-listers, paparazzi flashes, and the kind of laughter that suggests the night was more fun than formal.
Adding a twist to this Hollywood tale, Elordi's recent decision to step down from the Cannes Film Festival jury due to a broken foot has raised eyebrows. Online critics questioned his absence from Cannes while still managing to drive around LA with his famous friends.
However, fans and supporters were quick to point out that navigating the festival's intense schedule is a world apart from a casual LA drive. Elordi, poised for a bright career with roles in "Euphoria" and the much-anticipated "Frankenstein," may have missed a prestigious moment at Cannes, but life – and love – in LA seems to be keeping him busy.
In the end, Jenner and Elordi are playing it cool. They're not rushing into defining their relationship publicly, preferring a more organic and private journey. Despite the inevitable media circus following their every move, the pair is determined to enjoy their time together without turning it into a public spectacle.
For these two stars, it seems the plan is simple: let the cameras do their thing while they keep doing theirs – away from the spotlight.
