Multiple outlets report that the two, who have moved in similar social circles for years, began getting closer over the past few months. While they have known each other since at least 2022—when Elordi attended Jenner’s birthday party—sources say their connection recently deepened after a conversation at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party earlier this year.
Public interest increased during Coachella 2026, held from April 10 to 19, where Jenner and Elordi were seen together several times. Witnesses at a private after-party hosted by Justin and Hailey Bieber said the pair appeared affectionate and spent much of the evening together.
Reports also suggest that Kylie Jenner may have played a role in bringing them together. Insiders claim she introduced the two more formally and encouraged the match, partly because she is currently dating actor Timothée Chalamet and welcomed the idea of spending time as a group.
Despite the attention, sources characterize Jenner and Elordi’s relationship as casual. One person familiar with the situation told PEOPLE they have been “hanging out for months” but emphasized that it is “not serious” and that they are “just having fun.”
Both Jenner and Elordi have had recent high-profile relationships. Jenner was previously linked to musician Bad Bunny before their reported split in late 2023, and she was briefly rumored to be involved with NFL quarterback Caleb Williams earlier this month. Elordi, meanwhile, recently ended an on-and-off relationship with influencer Olivia Jade Giannulli around late 2025 or early 2026.
Neither Jenner nor Elordi has publicly confirmed or commented on the reported relationship.
