Watch: Kendall Jenner, Jacob Elordi Hang With Kylie Jenner, Timothée Chalamet
Kendall Jenner isn’t really interested in having fans keep up with her love life.
Sure, she’s been impossibly famous for more than half of her life, making her debut on the family’s flagship reality show Keeping Up With the Kardashians at age 11, but that doesn’t mean the world is privy to her every move.
Because, yes, she’s got game, with a dating life so prolific sister Kim Kardashian wore a fan-made “Kendall’s Starting Five” T-shirt on a 2023 episode of The Kardashians, featuring the runway regular surrounded by rumored and actual love interests Blake Griffin, Ben Simmons, Jordan Clarkson, Kyle Kuzma and Devin Booker.
But just because Kendall is huddled up with a guy doesn’t mean they’re endgame.
As she put it to Harper’s Bazaar in 2017, “If I’m not fully, fully in it with someone, why would I make it public to everyone else? If I don’t even know what it is, why would I let the world know?”
The situation between her and actor Jacob Elordi might seem awfully, uh, euphoric at the moment, the two enjoying a May 16 outing with her sister Kylie Jenner and boyfriend Timothée Chalamet.
Still, “I try [to] find the balance of keeping things private and keeping things sacred, [and] also not letting the unfortunate frustration and stress of everyone trying to get in on it stop me from enjoying my side,” the 30-year-old explained to WSJ. Magazine in 2023. “I just think that that’s the healthier way of dealing with relationships anyway.”
But once she’s in it, she’s all in.
“I love really hard, and I love without apology,” she told Harper’s Bazaar in 2023. “I don’t like goodbyes, and I will fight to not have to say goodbye. I will always fight for relationships. I’ve been that way since I was little, although I was shy and sometimes very closed off. I don’t give up on anything.”
At times, she continued, “people aren’t willing to meet me at that level. But that’s okay. I’d rather do that than shut myself off to something and not give it a proper chance.”
As for which guys she’s courted, we’re breaking down the partners she actually teamed up with versus those that never really got off the bench.
