It’s official, friends: Jacob Elordi is back on the market. After more than three years together, it seems he and Olivia Jade Giannulli have finally called it quits (maybe for good?), which means 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 Olivia Jade…not to mention his whole thing with Kaia Gerber.
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.
Olivia Jade Giannulli: 2021-2022 & 2023-2025
After first getting together in December 2021 (which is when an Us Weekly insider first claimed the two were “enjoying hanging out together”), the pair broke up in August of 2022, only to reunite the following summer. At the time, a source told Us Weekly, “They’ve been getting close again the past month or two and have traveled together quite a bit. This month they’ve been to New York and decided to go to Italy to get away from it all.”
It’s unclear when/why this second split took place, but in August 2025, People broke the news that the couple “recently decided to call it quits.”
Bianca Finch: 2022
Pls be advised that in March 2022 (while he was on a break from Olivia Jade), Jacob was spotted hanging out in a park in L.A. with Australian model Bianca Finch. Jacob was snapping casual pics of her and the two were chilling with their dogs—and while there wasn’t ~actual~ kissing, but the two did look super cute together. The Daily Mail has the photos of ’em, and this is Bianca in case you’re curious:
However, little else was heard about the maybe-couple following this maybe-date.
Kaia Gerber: 2020-2021
These two were first spotted together in September 2020 (on the night of Zendaya’s 24th birthday 👀 👀 👀) eating dinner at Nobu in Malibu. At the time, an E! News source said there was nothing “serious” going on between them, but by Halloween, they were posting couples costumes on IG (um, it’s since been deleted, but you can see the pic here!).
Unfortunately, even the truest of loves sometimes run their course, and in November 2021, Page Six reported that Jacob and Kaia had split. FWIW, the outlet’s source described the split as “amicable.”
Zendaya: 2019-2020
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.
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.”
It wasn’t until February 2020 that a source for E! News finally said, “Jacob and Zendaya have been seeing each other for months now. They started as close friends but it became romantic after their show ended.” Unclear when things ended, but by September 2020, they were donezo.
Cari Flowers: 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: 2017-2018
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.
Obviously, it’s pretty awkward that these two kept 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.”
Side note: Let’s not forget Joey calling Jacob out for telling Variety he hadn’t seen The Kissing Booth 2, writing in a since-deleted tweet, “Jacob watched it.”
Ruby: ???
K, so I’m mostly joking here, but Jacob talked to W magazine about his first kiss with a mystery person named ~Ruby~. Ahem:
“Train station in East Malvern, in Melbourne, with a girl named Ruby,’” he dishes. “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.
