Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi are simply two people who know each other enjoying a vacation in paradise. They're longtime friends catching up over farm-fresh breakfast — nothing more, nothing less.
Insiders tell me this isn't casual at all. The pair have been linked since February when Kylie Jenner played matchmaker after meeting Jacob during Timothée Chalamet's award season circuit. They've been sneaking around for months.
1) DeuxMoi posted photos of the pair on May 16, 2026 at Nourish Hanalei farm on Kaua'i, Hawaii. 2) A Daily Mail source confirmed they were 'making out' at Justin Bieber's Coachella afterparty in April 2026.
These two have been circling each other for months — and now that they've been photographed together in paradise, there's no taking this one back.
Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi are making no effort to hide whatever's brewing between them. On Friday, the duo was spotted grabbing breakfast at Nourish Hanalei — a family-run farm on the island of Kaua'i in Hawaii. DeuxMoi posted photographs showing the model, 30, dressed down in black sweats, a gray tank top, flip-flops and sunglasses as she walked up to the counter, while Elordi, 28, kept it equally casual in a gray long-sleeve shirt and light-washed jeans.
The "Frankenstein" actor was even caught lounging against a car on the property — looking very much like someone on vacation with his supposed summer fling. But here's where it gets interesting: fans who ran into the pair while on the island told DeuxMoi they were "so cute together," and according to multiple Instagram posts from the gossip account, this wasn't just a quick getaway. The couple spent "a few days in Kauai" before jetting back to Los Angeles.
During their tropical escape, sources say they were spotted grabbing coffee, stopping by a wine shop, and staying at the ultra-exclusive North Shore Preserve resort — the same development group behind the Yellowstone Club in Montana. That's not exactly the itinerary of two people just "hanging out." The timing of this Hawaii trip is notable because it comes hot on the heels of their most publicized moment yet: being photographed "making out" and "all over each other" at Justin Bieber's Coachella afterparty back in April during Weekend One of the festival.
A Daily Mail report claims they've actually been together since February, which would make this romance roughly three months old — and far more established than either team has let on publicly. So how did this even happen? Sources tell Page Six that Kendall's younger sister, Kylie Jenner, played cupid.
Apparently, Kylie was spending a lot of time around Elordi during her boyfriend Timothée Chalamet's award season marathon — since both actors were nominated for Oscars (Jacob for "Frankenstein," Timothée for "Marty Supreme"). The Kylie Cosmetics founder thought her big sister and the "Wuthering Heights" star would be a perfect match and made the introduction. A separate insider confirmed to Page Six that Kendall was initially hesitant about pursuing anything romantic because of their existing friendship — "They've known each other forever and run in the same circles," the source explained.
But apparently, she decided to give him a shot anyway, and now their dynamic has "definitely shifted recently." For his part, Elordi is fresh off a four-year on-and-off relationship with Olivia Jade Giannulli that ended in October 2025. He also dated Kaia Gerber for roughly a year back in 2021 and was linked to Joey King way back in 2017 during their "Kissing Booth" days. As for Jenner, she's been relatively single since her situationship with Bad Bunny ended in 2024, though she previously had extended relationships with Devin Booker (2020-2022) and Harry Styles (2013-2016). Page Six has reached out to representatives for both Jenner and Elordi for comment — but something tells me these two aren't in any rush to deny what's clearly right in front of our faces.
