Jacob Elordi's new look is turning heads after he was spotted on a date with Kendall Jenner in Los Angeles.
As Elordi and Jenner are quickly becoming Hollywood's newest hot item, rumours have been circulating surrounding the Kardashian-Jenner clan and their attitudes towards their relationship. Elordi's new look drew comparisons to Jenner's ex-boyfriend, Bad Bunny, because of the presence of facial hair.
Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi's Lunch Date Had Fans Comparing Him To Bad Bunny
Elordi and Kendall enjoyed a low-key lunch date in Los Angeles over the weekend. The Frankenstein actor and model were dressed in coordinated black outfits and shades. While their attire kept the meeting casual, photos of Elordi's new moustache immediately had fans comparing him to Bad Bunny, who Kendall dated in 2023.
Fans on X reacted to the photos with surprise. One said, 'Is he morphing into Bad Bunny?????' Another stated, 'Kendall done turned him into Bad Bunny.'
The jokes didn't stop there. 'Bro had some Kendall, and now he has some sauce,' said one. Another user observed, 'Soo is it just me or does he not look hella Mexican in this picture??'
The Bad Bunny references come after the singer's interaction with Kendall's mother, Kris Jenner, at the Met Gala earlier this year.
The Super Bowl star reportedly stretched his arm out as a greeting for Jenner's mother. However, she only reciprocated with a side hug while patting him on the arm.
The awkward interaction became one of the most discussed incidents of the night while highlighting how Bad Bunny managed to stay in the Kardashian-Jenner family conversation even after breaking up with Kendall.
Rumours About Kendall Jenner's Family Attitudes Towards Elordi Debunked
Elordi and Kendall's relationship seems to be blossoming following the news of their lunch date. However, their growing connection is reportedly gathering attention from the model's close family and friends.
Last month, an insider reportedly indicated that Kendall's loved ones were worried about her spending too much time with Elordi and catering too much to him, including arranging luxury travel and private accommodation.
The insider described Elordi's interest in Kendall as 'a drug to his ego', as another source claimed that some family members feared that she was accommodating him too much.
However, Kendall's brother Brody Jenner quickly disputed these claims by commenting under a post on Instagram, writing, 'I can confirm that this is clickbait,' alongside a thumbs-down emoji.
Despite the reports, the couple has made significant steps in their relationship. Kendall had reportedly introduced Elordi to Caitlyn Jenner. According to The Blast, the model introduced Elordi to Caitlyn at her Malibu home in May. An insider described this as unusual because Kendall does not usually do introductions like that.
The meeting was reportedly casual and private. 'They hung out for a while; it was not a big deal, it was super chill,' the insider reported.
Elordi is also close to his own family, so getting to know Kendall's marked a huge step in their relationship.
