Jacob Elordi, known for his roles in “Euphoria” and “The Kissing Booth,” has captivated audiences not only with his talent but also with his undeniable charm and striking appearance, securing a place in the hearts of many admirers across social media platforms like TikTok. His performances in various films, including “Deep Water,” “Saltburn,” and particularly “Priscilla,” where he portrays the iconic rock and roll figure Elvis Presley, have further heightened his popularity, especially among fans eagerly anticipating his role in capturing the essence of Presley’s relationship with Priscilla over the years.
With Elordi’s rising fame, discussions regarding his sexuality have resurfaced among his followers, intrigued by the actor’s personal life. However, officially, Elordi has not made any public statements or comments regarding his sexual orientation. Throughout his public dating history, he has been romantically linked with women, including his most recent relationship with Olivia Jade. Nevertheless, Elordi’s previous statements and actions have led to speculation and questions about his sexuality from fans and the media.
In various interviews, Elordi has candidly discussed his early celebrity crushes on actors like Orlando Bloom (as Legolas in “Lord of the Rings”) and Brad Pitt (as Achilles in “Troy”). Additionally, in a GQ interview, he opened up about being bullied in school and called “gay” due to his involvement in theater. Instead of shying away from the remarks, he embraced his feminine side, accentuating it through makeup and embracing characters that leaned into femininity, stating that he aimed to be the best at portraying such roles.
However, a significant piece of evidence that has sparked conversations about Elordi’s sexuality revolves around some photos from 2020 featuring him and “13 Reasons Why” star Tommy Dorfman. These images, shared on Twitter, showed a trip they took together, including a photo of Elordi kissing Dorfman on the cheek. It’s essential to note that these photos were taken before Dorfman came out as a trans woman, and at the time, she presented a more masculine appearance. The images sparked speculation among some fans regarding Elordi’s sexual orientation, although they were meant to showcase the bond between close friends rather than suggesting a romantic relationship.
The discussions about Elordi’s sexuality raise the question of whether he identifies as bisexual. However, the decision to publicly address his sexual orientation remains solely within Elordi’s prerogative. It’s crucial to respect his privacy and allow him the agency to share or withhold such personal information as he deems appropriate, avoiding any assumptions or pressures that could infringe upon his individuality or personal decisions. Ultimately, whether Elordi chooses to come out or not should be respected, prioritizing his autonomy and comfort over speculation or external expectations.
