Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi have been at the centre of romantic speculation since early 2026, and recent sightings have fuelled further intrigue about their relationship.

During their outing, both individuals donned bright raincoats and dark trousers, opting for a casual appearance, complemented by stylish accessories including sunglasses and head coverings. Jenner sported a bandana while Elordi settled on a baseball cap, contributing to the laid-back vibe of their day.
