Jacob Elordi Is Back On The Market After Splitting From "Off And On Again" Girlfriend Olivia Jade (2024)

Jacob Elordi might’ve embodied the ultimate player as Nate on Euphoria, but the Australian actor has actually been in several serious relationships throughout his 20s. The star’s current relationship status is unknown, but with interest in the heartthrob through his roles in Saltburnand Priscilla, we can expect this to change at a moment’s notice.

Of course, while Elordi might currently be single, his past girlfriends, including some of the biggest names in young Hollywood, hint at his dating style. Or more specifically, his type.

A romantic at heart, Elordi once toldW Magazine about his first kiss, revealing some serious water-sign energy (Jacob Elordi’s star sign is Cancer). “Train station in East Malvern, in Melbourne, with a girl named Ruby. 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.”

Some of his ex-girlfriends and past relationships you may know (ahem, Zendaya and Kaia Gerber). Others might surprise you (Joey King! Olivia Jade!). Ahead, a look back at the famous faces in Jacob Elordi’s love life.

2017 – 2018: Joey King

Jacob Elordi’s big break was as Noah in the Netflix film series The Kissing Booth. It was also on-set of the trilogy where he met his first famous girlfriend, Joey King. King played Elordi’s co-star and love interest, Elle, but the actors also fell in love in real life.

King toldBello back in 2018, “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 realise, ‘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.”

Here’s an awkward twist: Jacob Elordi and Joey King broke up before the filming ofThe Kissing Booth 2 began, which meant they had to play a couple on screen while dealing with whatever tension was left post-split. According to King, it was a challenging experience, but she doesn’t regret their relationship.

“I think it’s a good thing we dated in the first place. I learned the most I’ve ever learned in my life from him,” she told Howard Stern. Although she also added that she “couldn’t” date another actor, she added “I think that it’s awesome to date someone in your field, who gets it, but doing the same exact thing as somebody is tough. It’s really tough.”

All’s well that ends well though, with King now married to director Steven Piet, whom she met while filming another project, the true crime limited-series,The Act.

2019: Cari Flowers

This one is all Instagram drama. According toElite Daily, model Cari Flowers might have enjoyed a short relationship with Jacob Elordi in mid-2019, based on her social media behaviour.

For the uninitiated, Flowers posted a photo and tagged Elordi, implying he took the snap. She then un-tagged him, but later on June 2, the model shared a series of photos captioned “friends in Australia!”, one of which was Elordi shirtless. Later, the outlet reported she also posted photos of them kissing.

All of these were then removed from her Instagram account in June, so whatever their status was, it’s clear both parties didn’t want to publicise it. Thankfully, whatever is uploaded online lives forever, so we’ve tracked down some of the pictures in question.

2019 – 2020: Zendaya

Jacob Elordi might have a thing for dating co-stars – his next serious relationship was with none other than fashion icon andEuphoria actress Zendaya, who plays Rue in the HBO drama. While Rue and Elordi’s character Nate don’t exactly get along (let alone hook up), the pair met on set and quietly pursued a relationship over the course of a year.

Elordi kept things very under wraps. Even though the couple were snapped holidaying in Greece together in August 2019, the actor toldGQ Australia in an interview for their December issue, “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.”

Throughout the end of 2019 the couple were spotted together kissing or on dates – Zendaya even came down to Australia for Thanksgiving to spend it with Elordi’s parents – but they never confirmed their relationship. A source spoke toPeople after Zendaya and Jacob Elordi were spotted backstage at the Broadway show Dear Evan Hansen, saying “She did not introduce him as her boyfriend, but it was very obvious that they were together. They were trying not to hold hands and stuff and give away that they were a couple since there were lots of people around.”

It’s not known when exactly the couple broke up, but most reports speculate it was early 2020.

2020 – 2021: Kaia Gerber

After splitting from Zendaya, Jacob Elordi’s next high-profile relationship was with model Kaia Gerber. Speaking to Men’s Health at the time, Elordi said Gerber “handles herself wonderfully publicly,” and I’ve learned so much from her about how to handle it, how to deal with it and just kind of bewhatever about it, you know?”

As with all of Jacob Elordi’s relationships, he and Gerber kept a low profile – but things were a little more public than his past love stories. Gerber and Elordi were snapped kissing in public, confirming their relationship, in October 2020. Then for Halloween, Kaia Gerber shared this photo of their couples costume.

Gerber opened up about their romance to Vogue for their June 2021 issue, saying “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.” Still, the relationship didn’t last – by November 2021, the couple had split up.

Ironically, Kaia Gerber now dates Elvis himself – well,Elvis star Austin Butler. Even more ironic – Jacob Elordi also played Elvis, this time in Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla.

2021 – 2023: Olivia Jade Giannulli

In December 2021, Elordi was snapped by People getting coffee with Olivia Jade Giannulli, a famous YouTuber who was embroiled in the “Varsity Blues” college admission scandal. The L.A. socialite, who just goes by her first and middle names, was part of a group federal indictment after it was revealed her acceptance into the University of Southern California was fraudulent.

Jade’s mother, actress Lori Laughlin, bribed a rowing coach to imply she was a competitive rower to assist her getting into college, with photos of the social media star posing on an ergometer going viral. Nevertheless, this didn’t stop Elordi from taking an interest.

Elordi and Jade have dated on and off since connecting in late 2021. By May 2022 they were “official”, according to reports from Us Weekly –but just a few months later the relationship was over. “He’s not looking for a serious relationship at the moment,” the source said of Elordi, referencing their rumoured relationship as “hanging out together”.

Elordi spent the summer of 2023 with Jade in Italy. Most recently, she supported hisGQMan Of The Year recognition by attending the celebratory event. The pair walked the red carpet separately but were later seen hanging out together afterwards.

In January 2024, it was reported that Elordi had put their relationship back on “pause”, with reports emerging that the star had broken up with the social media sensation. Conflicting reports were published byTMZ, with the tabloid claiming Elordi and Jade were still very much in a relationship. They added that Jade was even present backstage at Saturday Night Liveto support Elordi’s hosting debut.

There’s no telling where these two currently stand. But if things are getting serious, you can rest assured the pair will follow in the footsteps of Pete Davidson and Madelyn Cline and Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet and attend the weekly after-party together.
