Jacob Elordi and Kendall Jenner Face Scrutiny Over Paris PDA

The viral footage shows Elordi attempting to negotiate with photographers during a late-night walk, pulling Jenner close to navigate the crowded street. While the gesture appeared protective to some, it sparked a wave of backlash from fans who argued the actor was playing to the cameras, noting that Jenner has spent her entire career navigating the spotlight without such displays. Detractors have gone as far as labeling the romance a PR stunt, with some users suggesting Elordi is attempting to emulate the public dynamic of his ex-girlfriend, Zendaya, and Tom Holland.

Beyond public perception, reports have surfaced suggesting that Jenner’s inner circle is wary of the rapid pace of the relationship. Sources alleged that family members worry the model is overextending herself, specifically regarding the financing of their luxury travel. However, Brody Jenner publicly dismissed these claims, labeling the reports as clickbait in a social media comment. Despite the external noise and comparisons to Jenner’s former partner, Bad Bunny, the couple maintains a high-profile presence, with Elordi consistently appearing by her side at major fashion events across Europe.
