Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi share rare romantic moment at Academy Museum Gala
Jacob Elordi has reportedly turned up the romance with a lavish gesture for girlfriend Kendall Jenner, as the couple offers a rare glimpse into their relationship at the sixth annual Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles on October 17.
During the star-studded event, the 30-year-old supermodel, and the Frankenstein actor, who have largely kept their reported romance private, were spotted getting cozy inside the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures.
Although the pair arrived separately on the red carpet, they were later photographed sitting together for a meal.
Jenner leaned against Elordi as he wrapped an arm around her waist, while the model placed her hand over his.
For the event, America's highest-paid model turned heads in a custom polka-dot gown by Valentino, while Elordi wore a black suit, white shirt and sunglasses.
The appearance followed another public show of support in September, when Elordi attended Jenner’s runway appearance at the Bottega Veneta show during Milan Fashion Week.
A report suggested the actor appeared taking photographs of Jenner as she walked the runway and cheering her on from the audience.
Despite these public moments, the pair appear keen to maintain their privacy. During a recent outing in Paris, Elordi was filmed asking photographers to stop taking pictures as the couple attempted to walk back to their hotel.
