"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."
Jacob Elordi has been in the news a *lot* lately due to his various breakups and coffee dates, and it’s probably about time o’clock to take a look back on his dating history. Come for his cute ’ship with his Kissing Booth costar Joey King, stay for his vibe with Euphoria’s very own Zendaya, and get caught up on his split from Kaia Gerber. Also, there’s a new Australian model potentially on the scene, and that feels important.
IRL, Jacob’s not at all like his Euphoria character Nate—whom he calls an “emotional terrorist, a narcissist, a sociopath, a freak,” FYI—and he rarely talks about his love life. But! Some of his relationships have inspired a whole bunch of speculation, and it’s become v, v clear to me that (1) there are impressive internet snoops out there who’ve managed to catalog some intricate dating details/theories, and (2) Jacob rly likes to date models and actors (and sometimes the people he’s acting with, even). Come along now, bc we’re about to get into it.
Bianca Finch: March 2022 to ???
Pls be advised that Jacob was spotted last March hanging out in a park in L.A. with the Australian model (if she looks familiar, she walked her first NYFW show in 2021 and was in JuiceWrld’s “Graduation” video alongside celebs like Olivia Munn and Hailee Steinfeld). Jacob was snapping casual pics of her and the two were chilling with their dogs—FYI, there wasn’t ~actual~ kissing, but the two did look super cute together. The Daily Mail has the photos of the two, and this is Bianca in case you’re curious:
The two aren’t following each other on Insta, even though both follow Jacob’s Euphoria costar Hunter Schafer. And (ofc) the two haven’t said anything about ~some kind of romance~, so we just have to wait.
Olivia Jade Giannulli: December 2021? to January 2022?
Jacob was spotted grabbing coffee with Olivia Jade right before the holidays way back in 2021, and naturally they became the subject of dating rumors. The pics were published by People, if you wanna check them out! The two didn’t talk about their relationship status, natch, but per an eyewitness, they were “flirting and smiling” and Olivia grabbed a ride in Jacob’s car. FYI, someone told Us Weekly that they “have been on some dates” but are “keeping it casual,” sooo that does feel like *a thing*?? But then in January 2022, Olivia was spotted with someone else, so maybe not.
Kaia Gerber: September 2020 to November 2021
These two were spotted together on the night of Zendaya’s 24th birthday 👀 👀 👀, eating dinner at Nobu in Malibu. At the time, a source said there was nothing “serious” going on between them, but by July 2021, the vibe was “posting pics of him on Insta making cute faces at a dog” (um, it’s since been deleted, but you can see the pic here!).
For everyone wondering, there didn’t seem to be any hard feelings between Jacob and Zendaya when he got serious with Kaia, considering he hopped on Insta Stories in September to congratulate her on her Emmy win, saying, “Congratulations captain @zendaya. Bravo.”
And things certainly seemed serious between Jacob and Kaia during the height of their ’ship. Kaia also told Vogue back in May 2021 that “being able to be with someone I trust, where we don’t want anything from each other, having a safe, steady relationship like that has really opened my eyes to the possibilities of love and what it feels like to love without conditions. Lust is touching other people or wanting them, but love is really seeing someone.”
Unfortunately, even the truest of loves sometimes run their course, and on November 18, 2021, Page Six reported that Jacob and Kaia had split. FWIW, the outlet’s source described the split as “amicable.”
Zendaya: August 2019 to Early 2020
Jacob and his Euphoria costar Zendaya were first the subject of dating rumors back in August 2019, when they were spotted in the background of someone else’s Instagram in Athens. I mean, iconic:
Then they were seen on a movie date, she was seen chilling with his family over Thanksgiving, and eventually E! News revealed that “Jacob and Zendaya have been seeing each other for months now. They started as close friends but it became romantic after their show ended.”
Meanwhile, Jacob firmly denied that there was anything going on with Zendaya, telling GQ Australia in November 2019, “She’s like my sister. Zendaya is an amazing creative, you know? She’s super dope to work with. She’s an incredible artist and a very caring person to all of us. But we’re all really close.”
Unclear when things ended (they were definitely together as of February 2020), but by September 2020, they were donezo.
Cari Flowers: Summer 2019
According to Elite Daily, Cari (who’s an American model) posted a pic of herself in May—Jacob was originally tagged and ppl speculate he took it:
A couple of days later, she posted about “friends in Australia,” which included a shirtless (!) pic of Jacob, and then a couple of days after that, she posted some photos of the two smooching. Then in early June, she deleted all those photos aaand untagged him from the above pic. So.
Joey King: Spring 2017 to Late 2018
Joey and Jacob had a major connection while filming The Kissing Booth in spring 2017, which worked out great for their onscreen chemistry. Unfortunately, it worked out the opposite of great once they broke up and then had to film two more movies together. Lol. Help.
Just please be advised that Joey wasn’t initially into Jacob when they met, telling Bello:
“Well, I thought he was very cute when we first met, but it started as a friendship. Right away, we were talking about gross things with each other. But before long, I started to realize, ‘Hey, I think I kind of like this person!’ It was such an interesting experience meeting your boyfriend on-set because you spend so much time together and become so close so fast. We were spending 17 hours a day together, and all of us would hang out after work and watch movies together and stuff. It was great.”
Also, their first kiss was literally on camera. Here’s what Joey told Seventeen:
“I was so nervous. So, Jacob and I were in our director’s office rehearsing the scene. He’s like, ‘Okay, we’re going to rehearse today, blah, blah, blah, and we’re going to rehearse this scene.’ I flip to the page and it’s our gazebo kiss, the super-passionate, intense one. I was like, ‘Omg! I just met this guy. I have to make out with this person in an office.’ He was nervous. I was nervous. It all worked out, but it was hilarious because I was in a small square office, trying to figure out how to run up to him and grab his face and kiss him. And, you know, he’s pretty tall. Figuring that out the first time was a bit challenging. I think we hit heads a couple of times.”
Obviously, it’s pretty awkward that these two keep having to film Kissing Booth movies together, but back in 2019, Joey told Mood With Lauren Elizabeth that “making the sacrifice of what, obviously, everyone is thinking about—outwardly addressing, but what I’m kind of on the sly addressing, making those sacrifices was totally worth it.”
Erm, cut to Jacob looking absolute miserable in Netflix’s promo for Kissing Booth 2:
And, erm, double cut to Joey calling Jacob out for telling Variety he hadn’t seen the movie, writing in a since-deleted tweet, “Jacob watched it.”
Ruby ???: ??? to ???
K, so I’m mostly joking here, but Jacob talked to W magazine about his first kiss with a mystery person named ~Ruby~. I’m gonna just leave this here:
“Train station in East Malvern, in Melbourne, with a girl named Ruby. A party would happen and everyone would be like, ‘Oh, I hooked up with so-and-so’ or ‘I got hooks with so-and-so,’ and I just never had the hooks.
“She was a tall girl, and I was myself a tall girl. We met at the station at, I think, 4:20 sharp. It was a date to meet and kiss. It’s probably still one of the most romantic moments in my life.”
NBD, only a million times more romantic than any first kiss ever.
