Multiple outlets reported that signs of strain between Jacob Elordi and Olivia Jade Giannulli were building up before their breakup. However, the couple’s busy schedules and the distance between them remained a major factor, according to Star. One source told the magazine, “Jacob’s work calls him away for weeks at a time, and he didn’t have time for Olivia in the way she needed.” The individual added that Giannulli’s recent relocation to France “pretty much signaled the end.”
Moreover, “Olivia’s having fun in Paris and meeting new people,” the insider claimed. They continued, “She seems determined to wash this guy out of her hair, one fashion show at a time.” The pair maintained a relatively private approach to their four-year, on-and-off romance. Sightings of the couple occasionally appearing together during trips to Europe and a summer getaway to Idaho with Giannulli’s parents sparked public interest.
As per PEOPLE’s exclusive report from August 7, the couple split in August 2022 after early sightings together in late 2021. They later reconciled and traveled to Italy in June 2023, and appeared to be “getting serious” by the following month. Additionally, as recently as January 2024, multiple sources told PEOPLE the two were still together.
The public clues in the months leading up to Jacob Elordi and Olivia Jade’s breakup were mixed. According to E! News, in April, Giannulli liked an Instagram post from Elordi’s sister. More recently, Giannulli told Teen Vogue she has “exciting change is also coming in the future,” which reportedly includes plans to launch a business. Meanwhile, Elordi continues to manage and be busy with multiple projects.
Neither Jacob Elordi nor Olivia Jade Giannulli has publicly commented on the breakup. But for now, the two appear to be focused on their work and personal growth.
