Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi's Milan Fashion Week Moment

Kendall Jenner closed the Bottega Veneta presentation at Milan Fashion Week on Saturday, September 26. Jacob Elordi attended the show from the front row, where he was photographed holding up a little silver digital camera to take a picture of Jenner as she walked the runway in a black, toga-esque garment with a large bow at her left shoulder. Footage of the moment was shared on social media platform X, with one user posting the photo alongside the caption, "Jacob taking a picture of kendall 😭 my fucking parents." Elordi also whistled to cheer Jenner on during her walk. He wore a white long-sleeved shirt, khaki pants, and sunglasses, seemingly designed by Bottega Veneta, and debuted a new goatee he had first revealed during a lunch with Jenner in Los Angeles the week before, on September 19. Fellow attendee Owen Cooper was also present at the show.

Kendall Jenner's personal reflections on relationships

Earlier this year, Kendall Jenner spoke about her approach to relationships. On a January episode of the 'In Your Dreams' podcast, she reflected on her past. I’m actually in a, like, me era right now, she said. Jenner explained that after turning 29, she felt she had been in a lot of relationships throughout her 20s and had never really had that time to herself. She made a commitment to choose herself, stating, I really wanted to have a ‘me year’ where I chose myself. Despite this stated intention, she remained open to connections that felt right. Jenner reportedly remains happy in her current relationship with Elordi and continues to share outdoor-focused quality time with him.
