Jacob Elordi and Kendall Jenner may have cemented their status as one of Hollywood’s hottest new couples following their recent date night in Santa Barbara.
But there is one detail critics have pointed out after footage emerged of their PDA-packed after-dinner display on Sunday.
While the Aussie movie star, 28, couldn’t keep his hands off the model, 30, many have pointed out that she didn’t appear to share the same affection for him.
‘Not an ounce of PDA going on. She looks fed up tbh,’ one person wrote.
‘She doesn’t seem that bothered,’ added another, while one said: ‘Her body language is “don’t touch me”. Arms crossed, leaning away from him, not into him in any way.’
Others agreed, pointing out Jenner’s body language in the video that surfaced of her and Elordi walking back to the car following their date night.

‘He’s the touchy feely type. She always crosses her arms,’ someone noted.
‘She is standing in a very defensive position with her arms crossed and that does not signal an openness to affection. She has never looked comfortable showing affection to men,’ commented one.
‘She does not seem happy with him. Probably got in some type of argument. He’s trying to get her past it and she’s having none of it,’ another theorised.
‘Looks like she is recoiling. Seems unwanted from her,’ one person wrote, while another added: ‘Her body language screams “get off me”. She’s really not into him.’
Reports emerged over the weekend of Elordi and Jenner looking smitten as they headed out in Santa Barbara in matching black outfits on Sunday.
Euphoria star Elordi couldn’t keep his hands off Jenner as he placed an affectionate hand on the back of her neck while they waited for their car.
The Oscar nominee, who recently enjoyed a getaway to Hawaii with Jenner, was also pictured wrapping an arm around the reality star as they chatted with friends.
A casual Elordi gave Jenner his full attention as they stared into one another’s eyes – while their romance becomes increasingly public.

Do you think Kendall’s body language signals trouble or is PDA overrated?

Earlier this month, the new couple were seen drinking rosé on the beach in Hawaii – marking their first public sighting together since news of their relationship emerged.
They were later seen on a giddy double date with Jenner’s sister Kylie, 28, and her boyfriend of three years and Oscar nominee, Timothee Chalamet, 30.
Jenner and Elordi were first romantically linked after they were seen ‘making out and all over each other’ during Justin Bieber’s post-show party at Coachella last month – with a source telling Daily Mail that Kylie had played matchmaker.
‘Kylie was around Jacob a lot during Timothee [Chalamet’s] award season marathon because Jacob was nominated for Frankenstein and Timothee was nominated for Marty Supreme,’ the source revealed.
‘Kylie is the alpha sister and pushed Kenny to start a romance with Jacob because she wanted to set up double dates with Timothee.’
Jenner and Elordi have been friendly for years. Elordi attended Jenner’s 2022 birthday bash and they were seen locked in conversation at the Vanity Fair Oscars party in March.
Elordi has been linked to a slew of love interests over the years, each with varying degrees of fame. He memorably dated his The Kissing Booth co-star Joey King for a year before their relationship ended in 2018.
He then moved on to Euphoria co-star Zendaya – with the pair seen kissing in early 2020.
Next up was Cindy Crawford’s supermodel daughter, Kaia Gerber, whom he dated for a year until late 2021.
Most recently, the Wuthering Heights star had a highly publicized several-year on-off romance with Lori Loughlin’s influencer daughter Olivia Jade Giannulli, which ended in 2025.
For her part, Jenner has enjoyed a string of famous boyfriends, including professional athletes Devin Booker and Ben Simmons, as well as rapper Bad Bunny.
