Jacob Elordi confronted paparazzi in Paris on Monday night after photographers interrupted a romantic walk with his girlfriend, Kendall Jenner.
The 29-year-old Australian actor and Jenner, 30, were strolling through the French capital when a group of photographers began taking pictures of the couple.
Clearly frustrated by the intrusion during their date night, the Euphoria star directly addressed the photographers.
“Wait, wait, wait. Can we just walk home?” Elordi said, appearing irritated as the cameras followed them.
When the photographers continued shooting, the actor made a further appeal for privacy.
“Can we just walk home back to our hotel? No flash, just let us walk. Just let us go,” Elordi pleaded, shaking his fist in frustration.

Despite the disruption, Elordi and Jenner appeared affectionate as they held hands while walking through the City of Light.
Elordi was accompanying Jenner after she walked in the L’Oréal show during Paris Fashion Week.
The couple had also spent the previous evening together in Italy, where Jenner was attending events for Milan Fashion Week.
Online commentators were quick to tease the Brisbane-born actor, suggesting he should expect intense public attention while dating into the Kardashian family.
“Dude doesn’t realise he’s dating a Jenner,” one social media user joked.

“This is new to HIM, she’s used to it,” another person commented.
Others, however, praised Elordi for appearing protective of his high-profile girlfriend.
Elordi and Jenner confirmed their relationship in April after they were seen sharing a passionate kiss at the afterparty for Justin Bieber’s Coachella performance. The pair were reportedly introduced by Jenner’s younger sister, Kylie.

Was Jacob Elordi right to ask photographers to leave him and Kendall Jenner alone on their date night?
In the intervening months, their romance saw them visiting Hawaii and Japan together, with the pair even going viral on TikTok for holding hands in Tokyo.
Jacob has developed a reputation for being averse to the spotlight, even refusing to have a public social media presence.
‘My dream was to be an actor. I’m far too nervous to ask for more than that,’ he told CBS Mornings in February.
‘I’ve been given exactly what I wanted, and I see it exactly how I dreamed it. I live it how I dreamed it. So that’s about all I can handle.’
