Jacob Elordi wants photographers to stop keeping up with him and Kendall Jenner.
The actor confronted snappers taking pictures of them during a Paris outing, in a viral video shared to social media Monday.
The “Euphoria” alum, 29, begged the paparazzi to “wait, wait, wait” and asked, “Can we just walk home?”
Elordi, while hand-in-hand with his girlfriend, put on a pair of sunglasses and repeated, “Can we just walk home back to our hotel?”
He requested, “No flash, just let us walk. Just let us go.”
Jenner, meanwhile, shaded her eyes with her hands as her partner put an arm around her waist and helped her across the street.
She wore a plunging gray dress and black heels, while Elordi sported a white button-down tucked into black pants, completing his look with loafers.
Social media users poked fun at the “Frankenstein” star’s heated reaction to the paparazzi.
“Dude don’t realize he’s dating a Jenner,” one wrote via Instagram, with a second adding, “This is new to HIM, she’s used to it.”
Others, however, praised Elordi for being “protective” of Jenner, whom he has been romantically linked to since April.
While he and the “Kardashians” star, 30, have kept their romance private, Page Six hears Jenner views Elordi as “husband material” since he is “grown-up and solid.”
In August, an insider told us the Golden Globe nominee is “such a gentleman” who “treats Kendall incredibly well.”
Elordi’s resistance to the spotlight pre-dates his romance with Jenner, as the Oscar nominee recently explained his decision to abstain from social media.
“My dream was to be an actor. … I’m far too nervous to ask for more than that,” he noted during a February “CBS Mornings” interview. “I’ve been given exactly what I wanted, and I see it exactly how I dreamed it. And I live it how I dreamed it. So that’s about all I can handle.”
In June, Elordi made headlines for snapping at a touchy fan in Japan and demanding, “Don’t touch me, bro.”
While Jenner has been in the public eye for nearly two decades, she has kept past romances — with Bad Bunny, Devin Booker and more exes — away from the limelight.
“I got a glimpse of how my sisters dealt with [the attention] and it’s cool to learn from that,” she explained to Vogue Australia in 2019, calling her personal connections “special and very sacred.”
She added, “Bringing things into the public makes everything so much messier. … A relationship is only meant to be between two people, and the second you make it the world’s business is when it starts messing with the two people mentally.”
