Jacob Elordi, one of the most talked-about and acclaimed Hollywood actors of his generation, has become immensely popular among younger audiences. As he has earned his stardom over the past few years, fans have shown a keen interest in his personal life, particularly his relationships.

The 27-year-old Australian describes himself as a romantic. In an interview with W Magazine, Elordi shared that his first kiss remains “probably still one of the most romantic moments in my life.”

Elordi's career breakthrough came with Netflix’s The Kissing Booth, where he began dating his co-star Joey King. Following a few brief relationships, rumors surfaced about him dating Zendaya, his co-star from Euphoria and one of Hollywood’s most talented actors of her generation.

Here’s a look at the rising star’s dating history.

They broke up before they began filming for the sequel and continued on-screen as a couple while dealing with the breakup. In a 2019 interview with Refinery29, King, who is currently married to filmmaker Steven Piet, discussed the challenges of going through a public breakup.

After The Kissing Booth, Elordi's yet another major and popular role was as Nate Jacobs on Sam Levinson's HBO series Euphoria. Dating speculations about him and Zendaya started to circulate during this time.
