Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi's cozy autumn coffee date in NYC - with a kiss
Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi are keeping it cozy this fall. The Kardashians star and the Euphoria alum were photographed grabbing coffee together in New York City on Nov. 8, working the full autumn aesthetic: orange leaves, hot drinks and a steamy-but-chaste moment on a stoop.
Jenner leaned into the fall dress code in a green utility jacket, a cheetah-print scarf, Éterne boot-cut jeans, brown leather boots and a large burgundy tote. Elordi was equally bundled up in a white hoodie, matching sneakers and dark blue jeans, his freshly dyed blonde hair tucked under a black beanie and the hood of his sweater.
The couple, who first sparked dating rumors back in April, matched in sunglasses as they waited for their drinks on a stoop. At one point, Elordi rested his hand on the supermodel's knee, and she wrapped her arms around him, resting her chin on his shoulder. When Jenner took a phone call, she leaned in and gave the Frankenstein actor a quick kiss.
Slowly going public
They've been warming up to public displays of affection for months now. Elordi cheered Jenner on at Paris Fashion Week before the pair attended the Academy Museum Gala together as a couple.
Still, both have made clear they'd rather keep the relationship off the grid. Elordi, who previously dated Joey King, Kaia Gerber and Olivia Jade, told Vanity Fair in 2020 that a romance should stay private. "You want it to be genuine and real and have all the feelings of what you read in 1920s literature," he said. "But when people are watching and talking about it, it makes it a little bit difficult."
Jenner, who has been linked to Devin Booker and Bad Bunny, shares the sentiment. "For me, a lot of things are very special and very sacred, like my friends and relationships," she told Vogue Australia in 2019, "and I personally think that bringing things into the public makes everything so much messier."
