Kendall Jenner is pulling back the curtain on her personal life, and as usual, her candor is as refreshing as it is unfiltered. During the Thursday, October 15 episode of The Kardashians, the 30-year-old supermodel took a moment to candidly reflect on her decade-long bond with fellow runway icon Cara Delevingne—and the persistent internet speculation surrounding their dynamic.
Reflecting on how their journey began in the high-stakes world of international fashion, Jenner spoke warmly of the 34-year-old British star’s early support:
“We have been friends for a long time now — going on 11 or 12 years,” Jenner shared. “She brought me under her wing — in a way — and made me feel really safe and welcome in the modeling world.”
That fierce closeness, however, frequently sparked fan theories over the years regarding whether their friendship was secretly romantic. Rather than dodging the topic, Jenner tackled the public chatter head-on during her confessional:
“We should address this. It’s because of our love for each other. People think I’m a lesbian to this day,” Jenner noted with a chuckle. “I’m not.”
While clarifying that her romantic orientation centers on men, Jenner proved she maintains a super open, modern perspective on fluid curiosity, openly remarking that she “wouldn’t be opposed to having some fun with a girl.”
“There’s definitely a rumor that her and I dated or something in the past, which is not true. Not that I would have anything wrong with dating Cara but we’ve just always been best buds,” Jenner explained. “I love Cara. She’s my sister and that never happened. For the record, I think being a lesbian would be fun and amazing.”
Injecting her signature dry humor into the conversation, Jenner poked fun at the dating pool at large, joking that “being a lesbian would be fun and easier” because “men suck.”
“By the way, I have nothing against having sex with Cara. I just have never had a desire to have sex with women,” she added playfully. “Never say never, right?”
Whatever rumors may circulate across social media, Jenner’s romantic life in the real world remains firmly anchored. She is currently dating actor Jacob Elordi, with the duo recently spotted sharing sweet, cozy moments during a star-studded trip to Paris Fashion Week.
