Kendall Jenner’s closest loved ones have given their stamp of approval to her relationship with Jacob Elordi.
“They are very serious and exclusive,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly. “Everyone around them can see how madly in love they are and how well their relationship works.”
The insider shares that Jenner, 30, and Elordi, 29, spent the 4th of July together in Idaho with Hailey and Justin Bieber, adding that the “entire group has now become close friends.”
“They both share a love for the outdoors, so traveling together and escaping into nature has become one of their favorite ways to spend quality time,” the source says. “Friends think Jacob brings out the best in Kendall, and she is really happy right now. Everyone approves of him, and it’s going well so far.”
Us Weekly reached out to Jenner and Elordi’s reps for comment.
Jenner and Elordi were first spotted together at the Vanity Fair Oscars Party in March and have since enjoyed several outings — including a trip to Kauai, Hawaii, in May.
“Kendall and Jacob have become very close recently,” a source exclusively told Us at the time. “They were excited to get away to Hawaii and have some downtime together.”
The insider shared that their romance has been “going on since January, but things are progressing, and they have been consistently seeing each other when they can.” The source added that the pair have a “very natural connection.”
“Kendall especially likes that Jacob is very funny and easy to be around, and she seems really happy and relaxed when she’s with him,” the insider said. “They’ve been spending more private time together behind the scenes and have become much more comfortable in each other’s inner circles.”
Elordi last dated Olivia Jade Giannulli on and off from 2021 to 2025. Jenner has been single since 2025 after being in relationships with Devin Booker and Bad Bunny.
“I’m actually in a, like, me era right now,” she said on the “In Your Dreams” podcast in January when asked about dating. “I know that might sound corny … but when I turned 29, I had a crash-out about turning 30. When I turned 29, I remember saying to myself, I do feel like I’ve been in [relationships], and there’s nothing wrong with it.”
She continued, “I’ve had great relationships, I’ve had not-so-great relationships, but I felt like through my 20s, I was in a lot. I was in a few long-term consistent relationships … near each other. … When I turned 29, I made a minor commitment to myself. I was, like, ‘I’m not going to reject anything [and] I’m going to stay open to anything that feels like it would suit me,’ but I really wanted to have a ‘me year’ where I chose myself.”
