Euphoria star Jacob Elordi has firmly established himself as one of Hollywood’s most sought-after heartthrobs. His impressive journey in the entertainment industry has seen him romantically linked with some of the most beautiful actresses in the business. The talented, Australia-born actor kickstarted his career with a minor role in the 2017 film Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. His breakthrough moment came when he starred in Netflix’s The Kissing Booth in 2018, leading to his further acclaim in The Kissing Booth 2 in 2019 and the final installment in 2021. More recently, he shared the screen with Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas in Hulu’s gripping erotic thriller Deep Water in 2022.
Currently, Jacob Elordi is a household name, thanks to his portrayal of the complex character Nate Jacobs in HBO’s acclaimed series Euphoria. His rising star status has put his dating life under the spotlight, showcasing his glamorous relationships with various high-profile individuals, including Joey King and his latest partner, Olivia Jade. This article delves into the captivating history of Jacob’s romantic encounters, providing insights into his evolving love life.
The talented daughter of model Jaime King, Joey King, shared undeniable chemistry with Jacob while filming The Kissing Booth in early 2017. In a heartfelt interview with Bello in 2018, Joey revealed that their connection wasn’t immediate love at first sight. “Well, I thought he was very cute when we first met, but it started as a friendship,” she shared. “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.”
However, by late 2018, their romantic relationship had run its course, which likely made filming the sequels of The Kissing Booth quite awkward for them. Despite their breakup, both actors maintained their professionalism, and their performances in the follow-up films exuded the same charm and chemistry that captivated audiences in the original.
In the summer of 2019, Jacob was casually linked with model Cari Flowers. Reports from Elite Daily indicated that fans went wild when Cari shared a stunning portrait of herself on May 28, 2019, tagging Jacob in the post. “Lines still on my face from the nap I apparently took,” she humorously captioned the image. Speculation about their relationship intensified when Jacob appeared in a subsequent post, cozily embracing and kissing her, along with other photos where he was shirtless.
However, it appears that Cari later removed all the photos from her social media account and untagged Jacob, leaving fans to wonder about the nature of their relationship. Neither Jacob nor Cari has publicly addressed the potential romance.
Fashion powerhouse Zendaya and Jacob’s paths crossed on the set of Euphoria, which began filming in 2018. However, it wasn’t until August 2019 that they were spotted together in Greece, followed by a movie outing in Sherman Oaks, California, in October, as reported by StyleCaster. Jacob expressed in an interview with GQ in December 2019 that he saw Zendaya as a “sister,” despite having taken her to Australia a month earlier to spend Thanksgiving with his family.
The two continued to be seen together in public, with their final known appearance in March 2020, when photographers captured them browsing through a flea market in Los Angeles, showcasing their close friendship.
Model Kaia Gerber, the daughter of iconic supermodel Cindy Crawford, was first associated with Jacob in September 2020. They were photographed enjoying a dinner date at the trendy hotspot Nobu in New York City. At that time, sources informed E! News that their relationship was casual, although “Jacob makes Kaia laugh, and her family adores him.”
By Valentine’s Day 2021, Jacob and Kaia had become an official couple, with Kaia sharing a story on Instagram featuring a beautiful bouquet of flowers Jacob sent her for the special occasion. In a May 2021 interview with Vogue, she shared, “Lust is touching other people or wanting them, but love is really seeing someone,” highlighting their deepening connection.
However, E! News reported that by November 2021, Jacob and Kaia had separated. Sources confirmed that the split was amicable, citing their busy schedules as the primary reason for the breakup. “Their schedules conflicted, and they weren’t spending much time together,” a source relayed to Life & Style.
Recently, Jacob has been romantically linked to Olivia Jade Giannulli, the 22-year-old daughter of Lori Loughlin. They were first spotted together enjoying coffee in Los Angeles in December 2021. A source for Us Weekly noted that they were taking their time to explore their connection. By May 2022, they had officially confirmed their relationship.
Nevertheless, reports indicate that the couple parted ways by January 2024, as per a report from January 17. The reasons behind their breakup remain unclear, although it is not the first time they have experienced ups and downs in their relationship.
Despite the breakup reports, other sources suggested on January 18 that Jacob and Olivia’s relationship was still intact. “They are not broken up,” a source allegedly told E! News, adding an air of mystery to their current status.

Later that month, People magazine reported that Kendall and Jacob had been spending time together, getting to know each other over the past few months, making fans excited about this potential new celebrity couple.
