The pair fell in love on screen and in real life.
Netflix's latest teenage romcom The Kissing Booth (yes, the one originally written by a 15-year-old Beth Reekles!) stars 18-year-old Joey King and 20-year-old Jacob Elordi. The two play a pair of teenagers, Elle and Noah, who struggle to keep their relationship under wraps after falling for each other under her best friend's nose.
The pair make a handsome on screen couple, but fans have been delighted to discover that their romance didn't end when production wrapped on The Kissing Booth.
Unlike some other famous couples, Joey and Jacob haven't necessarily hidden their romance. Both their socials are full of loved up selfies and smiley candids.
Joey revealed their relationship in 2017, writing in one Instagram post last June " Happy birthday to this lovely Australian @jacobelordi Who is not only my boyfriend but my hella dope best friend. We had the luck of meeting each other on the set of a film we did together in South Africa called The Kissing Booth."
