What’s up?
It’s Sussan Mourad here with Clevver News and as Jacob Elordi and Kaia Gerber’s relationship
continues to heat up, Jacob got real with his fans on Instagram about his mental health
saying he’s just “a human being.”
Alright, so it’s basically been impossible to look on any social media platform these
last couple weeks without seeing pics of rumored new couple, Jacob Elordi and Kaia Gerber,
out and about together.
Last week, Jacob and Kaia sparked romance rumors when the two were both seen at dinner
in Malibu for Kaia’s early birthday celebration.
Then, earlier this week, they were spotted holding hands in New York City and photos
were shared of their outing by Instagram account Deux Moi.
At the time, fans were still concerned about Jacob’s rumored relationship status with
his Euphoria co-star Zendaya, as many people thought those two were an item.
And while we aren’t 100% sure if Z and Jacob broke up or were ever even officially together,
a source told E! News that he and Kaia aren’t official yet.
They said quote, “Jacob definitely has interest in dating Kaia, but there is nothing serious
going on there.
They have many mutual friends and have hung out many times in the past.
They both have very chill personalities and similar interests.
Jacob makes Kaia laugh and her family adores him.”
But that didn’t stop them from going out on yet another PDA packed outing holding hands
through NYC as they headed to dinner at the French bistro Lucien.
Deux Moi also shared more pics of Jacob and Kaia walking together on Wednesday afternoon.
Another source also told E! News that Jacob and Kaia are QUOTE: "definitely interested
in each other," but they're not in a rush to put a label on things right now.
The source continued to say, "Kaia is the one that doesn't want to be in an exclusive
relationship right now.
She has a lot of projects on her plate and wants her freedom.
She does love hanging out with Jacob and they are spending time in New York City for the
week while she works."
As for Jacob, the source also added, "He is definitely interested in her and is happy
to see where things go for now."
And amid all these relationship rumors and even Zendaya cheating rumors, Jacob took a
moment to remind his 10.5 million fans on Instagram that he’s still a “human being.”
Jacob, who is originally from Brisbane, Australia, noted how hard it’s been to be away from
his family for so long during these lockdowns.
He wrote quote, “A picture of myself and my mother and father sharing a video call.
We communicate like this because I’m really far from home and I don’t get to see them
too often.
They live in a space of constant anxiety when I am away from them, as do I in the reverse.
This is a reminder that I am a human being.”Asset: screenshot of IG story
And Jacob went on to share some supportive words for his fans writing “If you find
it difficult to make your way through the day, I get it, life is heavy.
I implore you when you feel like this is to try a little kindness, pay it forward and
I promise it will find [its] way back to you.
I hope it helps you as I find it helps me.
Always in love, J.”Asset: screenshot of IG story
And fans were quick to take to social media to send Jacob their love and support after
he shared his heartfelt post.
One person wrote quote, “It’s seriously suicide prevention month & millions are sending
hate to a guy that they know nothing about.
No one knows what happened between him and zendaya, stop assuming.
Spread love.
You’ll regret it when it’s too late.
Jacob Elordi, I hope you’re okay”
This fan chimed in saying “YALL i love zendaya as much as all of you do but there’s no
reason to hate on jacob elordi just for having a new gf”
And this person decided to add some lightness and humor to the situation sharing Jacob’s
IG story writing “wait did u guys know that jacob elordi is in fact a human being?!! this
information is very new to me.. i had no idea…”
And as much as that fan was joking around, it is a good reminder that celebs really are
humans too.
We know people like Jacob from some of our favorite movies and shows, but at the end
of the day he’s just a person like all of us and you never know what someone is going
through.
We will keep you guys posted if he or Kaia officially address their relationship or share
any pics on social media.
