Kendall Jenner did not expect to fall for Jacob Elordi this fast, insider reveals

Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi's relationship is reportedly deepening, with insiders saying their recent Hawaiian getaway marked a significant turning point for the pair.

Hawaii changed everything

On Monday, a source told Page Six that the couple's romantic trip to Hawaii brought them considerably closer than Jenner had anticipated. "Kendall really didn't expect to be this into him this fast, but Hawaii kind of changed everything," the insider said.

"They got super close on that trip, and it definitely made their connection stronger. It's becoming a lot more serious than she expected."

Friends and family take notice

The source also noted that those closest to Jenner have observed the shift in her demeanour. The confidant told the outlet that Kendall is "really happy right now and loves how easy things feel" with the Euphoria star. "Her friends and family can see how much she likes him," the insider continued.

A double date in Los Angeles

Over the weekend, the couple were spotted on a double date in Los Angeles with Kylie Jenner and her partner Timothée Chalamet — a sign, sources suggest, of how naturally Elordi has slotted into Jenner's inner circle.

"It's been really fun for her and Kylie being able to hang out with guys who genuinely get along and fit naturally into their lives, because they honestly haven't really had that in a long time," the source said.

High praise for Elordi

Those close to the situation have spoken warmly about the Australian actor's character. "Jacob's just a really good guy," the insider added. "He's super respectful and easy to be around, and it's becoming a lot more serious than she expected."

How it all began

Jenner and Elordi first sparked dating speculation after they were spotted together at the 2026 Coachella festival in April.
