Did Jacob Elordi And Zendaya Ever Date? 'Euphoria' Co-Stars' Rumoured Relationship, Split And More

Euphoria, the drama series that explores the web of complicated and interconnected relationships of a group of high-school students, has established its name as one of the most popular series of the present time. Each actor and actress who appeared on the show has gone on to make a great name for themselves. Especially, Jacob Elordi and Zendaya, who have been part of many huge projects. 

However, even though in the show, 'Rue' (played by Zendaya) and 'Nate' (played by Jacob) do not cross paths much, behind the scenes, the two actors were reportedly quite close. Numerous reports suggested that Jacob Elordi and Zendaya were dating during Season 1 of the show. So, let's take a look at their rumoured relationship and what could have led to the split. 

Jacob Elordi was in a relationship with his The Kissing Booth co-star, Joey King before dating Zendaya

Jacob Elordi became a household name after appearing as 'Noah Flynn' in the 2018 film, The Kissing Booth. After watching the romance between 'Noah' and 'Elle', people had started shipping him with his lead co-star, Joey King. Fans were elated to find that Jacob and Joey were, in fact, dating in real life. However, their relationship, which had started before the filming of The Kissing Booth, ended soon after the movie was released on Netflix. However, the two exes remained on cordial terms and starred in two more films in the franchise. In a chat with Howard Stern, Joey revealed about dating her co-star:

"I think it's a good thing we dated in the first place. I learned the most I've ever learned in my life from him. I think that it's awesome to date someone in your field, who gets it, but doing the same exact thing as somebody is tough. It's really tough."

Jacob Elordi and Zendaya's romantic vacation and PDA made headlines during Euphoria Season 1 

Jacob Elordi and Zendaya met on the sets of their series, Euphoria. US Weekly had reported that sparks were flying between the co-stars. However, people became convinced that the two were in a relationship after they were photographed on a romantic vacation in Greece. Despite this, Jacob subtly denied the rumours by referring to Zendaya as 'like a sister' while in an interview with GQ. But the rumour mill started churning again after the two were spotted kissing in a secluded neighbourhood. 

Jacob and Zendaya have never confirmed that they ever dated. However, the many clues, including photos and insider information, make it undeniable that they were more than just friends. After the PDA incident, they were also seen cuddling while watching the musical, Dear Evan Hansen. A source said to People that they took a lot of effort to keep their relationship a secret. The rumoured couple even declined to have photos taken when they met the cast of the musical. The source shared:

"They gushed about the musical and each other. She did not intro him as her boyfriend, but it was very obvious that they were together. They were trying not to hold hands and stuff and give away that they were a couple since there were lots of people around."
