Fresh off their recent secret trip to Australia, notoriously private pair Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi have been spotted packing on the PDA during a stay at a private estate in Malibu this week – once owned by his ex-girlfriend’s family.
The reality TV star and model, 30, and Aussie actor, 29, were snapped looking completely smitten as they embraced and doted on what appears to be a little puppy. A sign that their relationship is taking a more serious turn? Perhaps.
The two could be seen soaking up the sun while hanging out at the beach house, sharing plenty of cuddles and kisses on the oceanfront patio, oblivious to the lenses that followed their every move.
The estate is familiar territory for the Wuthering Heights actor, who spent plenty of time at the same home during his romance with US model Kaia Gerber, whom he dated for just over a year back in 2020. The beachfront home was previously owned by his ex’s supermodel mother, Cindy Crawford.
The getaway comes off the back of a recent trip Down Under for the star couple. The Frankenstein star and The Kardashians star enjoyed a whirlwind visit in Elordi’s hometown of Brisbane last month, where they were spotted at Brisbane airport doing their best to fly under the radar with black masks, dark sunglasses and baseball caps doing all the work to try and hide their identity.
Unfortunately for them, the thousands of dollars worth of designer luggage they were toting around the airport terminal – from the likes of Gucci, Bottega Veneta and The Row (a luxe label founded by another celebrity duo: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen) – somewhat gave their star status away.
The couple was reportedly in town for Elordi’s 29th birthday and according to Page Six, the visit back home was the first step in the pair taking their relationship to the next level.
“Kendall and Jacob have taken that next step in their relationship and they’ve made things official,” a source told the outlet.
“They’re just in that phase where they want to do everything together and things have gotten pretty serious.”
Jenner and Elordi first sparked romance rumours back in March 2026, when they were seen cosily chatting at an Oscars after-party.
They first crossed paths back in February 2022, when they were photographed hanging out with a group of mutual friends in Paris and have remained close friends since, according to those in their inner circle.
Following the Oscars earlier this year, Jenner and Elordi began spending more time together, with insiders claiming Jenner’s little sister Kylie Jenner and her boyfriend Timothee Chalamet as well as Justin and Hailey Beiber were behind the gentle nudge for them to pursue things romantically.
The plan appeared to have worked when the two were seen getting cosy at Bieber’s Coachella after-party in April and again on a private beach date in Hawaii in the weeks that followed.
A recent trip to Japan confirmed they were very much an item thanks to starstruck tourists and restaurant owners posting photos of them posing with both on social media.
