However, social media users who attended the music festival claimed to have witnessed an especially intimate moment between the pair, fueling rumors of a blossoming romance.

Gossip blogs such as Deux Moi even reported that multiple sources had claimed Kendall and Jacob were locking lips at Justin's after-party.

This rumored romance comes eight months after Jacob, 28, and Olivia Jade called it quits in August after four years of on-off dating. While there was speculation that they had reconciled one month later when Olivia attended the premiere of Frankenstein in September, neither she nor Jacob confirmed their status at the time.

As for Kendall's dating history, she has been linked to Devin Booker and Bad Bunny in recent years. While she tends to keep her relationship status under wraps, she and Devin enjoyed a flirtatious exchange in January that had fans raising their eyebrows. Under an ad Kendall did for Fanatics, where she bet the Patriots would beat the Seahawks, Devin commented, "I bet a million the Seahawks get that ring before you do," alongside a blushing emoji. When Kendall replied by poking fun at the Phoenix Sun player's recent sprain by asking how his ankle was, Devin replied, "Come rub it."

Despite living her life in the spotlight on Keeping Up With the Kardashians and The Kardashians and with a modeling career to boot, Kendall has always kept the details of her private life to herself. This is why it was unusual when she recently shared some rare insight into whether she envisions her future including children. "I want to have some, but not right away," the 30-year-old told Vogue France in an interview published on Feb. 24. "I want to make sure I can dedicate a lot of time to them, and for now, I'm still too busy."

As for her more immediate future, she simply wants to keep 2026 fun. "The most important thing will be to stay true to myself and continue having a good time," she said. "It might sound like a cliché, but it's very important to me."
