AWW: ‘The Kissing Booth’ Couple Are Together IRL & Spilling Their Love All Over Instagram

If you thought Netflix’s teen rom-com The Kissing Booth couldn’t get more loveable, you’ll be keen to hear that co-stars Joey King and Jacob Elordi are actually together IRL.

Movies are real! True love knows no bounds! I’m gonna die alone!

It turns out the film inspired the couple to give it a go in the real world and luckily for us, they keep posting adorbs couple shots all over each other’s ‘grams and we can live vicariously through them.

Joey told Seventeen that her romance with Jacob blossomed from a friendship.

“We were so close, and throughout filming I was just best friends with Jacob. I guess there was no moment, but I feel like the friendship kind of naturally was like, ‘Oh hey, this person is super frickin’ awesome.’ We have so much in common and we really love spending time together.”

As the two continued to film The Kissing Booth, Joey says she eventually realised they were more than friends.

“It was never like this moment of ‘Omg, I can’t let him see me like this.’ You know what I mean? We were open books with each other. There was nothing we wouldn’t talk about. He’s just so great. After the first month [of filming], I was like, ‘Hmm, I think I like him.'”

Both of their Instagrams are filled with cutesy pics like this:

They are just too pure.

They go on a lot of cute dates.

 

And even attend gun control protests together.

They are pretty much ultimate couple goals.

 

Though Joey does post some weird shit tbh.

Jacob even introduced Joey to our national dish: a jar of Vegemite. (I’ve eaten two today already!)

It looks like Joey visited Australia last Christmas. Damn. Things have been serious for a while.

And the award for tiniest swimwear goes to….. @jacobelordi. #ILoveAustralia
