Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi have been dating for months — thanks to Kylie: report
Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi have reportedly been dating since February.
The model and the “Euphoria” star first sparked dating rumors when Deuxmoi reported that the two were “making out” and “all over each other” at Justin Bieber’s weekend one Coachella 2026 afterparty.
But Jenner and Elordi have already been dating for two months, according to a Daily Mail report published Tuesday. A source told the outlet that Jenner’s younger sister, Kylie Jenner, was actually the one who played matchmaker for her and Elordi.
“Kylie was around Jacob a lot during [her boyfriend] Timothée’s [Chalamet] award season marathon because Jacob was nominated for ‘Frankenstein’ and Timothee was nominated for ‘Marty Supreme,’” the source shared.
“Kylie liked him and thought he would be good for Kenny so she was like, ‘girl, get on it, date this guy already,’” the source continued to claim.
The insider added that Kendall had actually already known Elordi for years, but that Kylie was instrumental in getting him “out of the friend zone” — noting that Kylie is “the leader” between the sisters.
“‘Kylie is the alpha sister and pushed Kenny to start a romance with Jacob because she wanted to set up double dates with Timothée,” the source said.
The four of them reportedly bonded with hangouts at Kendall’s house in Los Angeles.
“And Kenny found out she just clicked with Jacob … there was chemistry,” the insider said.
Page Six reached out to Kendall and Elordi’s reps but didn’t immediately receive a response.
Kendall, 30, was last linked to Bad Bunny, whom she dated on and off in 2023 to early 2024.
She also previously dated NBA athlete Devin Booker from 2020 to 2022, and had an on-again, off-again relationship with Harry Styles from 2013 to 2016.
As for Elordi, 28, he was last linked to influencer Olivia Jade Giannulli. They dated on an off for four years, starting in 2021.
He also dated Kaia Geber in 2021 though they split after a year, as well as his “Kissing Booth” co-star Joey King in 2017. Their relationship also lasted about a year.
Back in January, Kendall addressed longtime rumors that she’s a lesbian during her appearance on Owen Thiele’s “In Your Dreams” podcast.
“I am not [gay],” she said, before noting, “I don’t think I will be, but I’m not closing doors to experiences in life.”
