Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi debut as a couple at Academy Museum Gala

Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi made their first official appearance as a couple at the 2026 Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles. While the pair walked the red carpet separately, they were seen sharing affectionate moments behind the scenes and sitting together during the event's dinner.

Jenner wore a custom black-and-white polka-dot Valentino gown, while Elordi opted for a custom Bottega Veneta tuxedo paired with sunglasses. The couple, who have been linked since early 2026, maintained a level of discretion by not posing together for the initial press photocall, but they were photographed together inside the venue.

Following the gala, the pair were seen leaving an after-party together at the Chateau Marmont. Although they have not publicly confirmed their relationship status, recent sightings in locations such as Hawaii, Japan, and London have fueled ongoing speculation regarding their romance.
