Hollywood has a way of turning great on-screen chemistry into real-life curiosity, and Jacob Elordi and Cailee Spaeny appear to be the latest pair caught in that mix. Ever since their performances as Elvis and Priscilla Presley in Priscilla, people have wondered whether their bond extended beyond the camera. The two were spotted sharing easy laughs and genuine warmth during interviews promoting the film. And now, with Elordi recently dropping an intriguing comment about his co-star, social media, especially X, is buzzing again.

Many are convinced there is something special going on between Jacob Elordi and Cailee Spaeny; however, what was the comment that ignited the conjecture?

Jacob Elordi recently sat down with Josh Horowitz for an episode of Happy Sad Confused podcast, where he opened up about everything from his past project Saltburn to his hit series Euphoria, to the recently released Frankenstein and upcoming film Wuthering Heights. But it was the lighthearted final segment that stole the spotlight, as Elordi answered random questions about his personal preferences. When asked about his current phone wallpaper, notably, he replied, “Right now, my wallpaper is me and my beautiful friend Cailee Spaeny from Priscilla,” and even showed the photo on camera.

The picture that the world got a glimpse of via the Happy Sad Confused podcast featured Jacob Elordi and Cailee Spaeny at an event, with the Australian talent laughing his heart out as the actress seemingly engaged with the crowd via a microphone. Despite the picture not showing the two engaging in any acts of romance whatsoever, social media went buzzing with theories explaining how Elordi having his co-star as his wallpaper hinted at them being more than just friends.

From sly suggestions to sure-shot speculations, X did not hold back in hypothesizing how Jacob Elordi and Cailee Spaeny could be an item.

X wasted no time reacting to Jacob Elordi’s sweet revelation about his Priscilla co-star, flooding the platform with playful commentary and excited chatter. Many users poked fun at the actor’s use of the word “friend,” while others could not stop gushing over how “gorgeous” the two looked together. From fans jokingly suggesting they were aware of who Elordi really was to others declaring that Spaeny “wonnn,” X quickly turned the moment into a full-blown frenzy of admiration, amusement, and romantic speculation.

Alternatively, some appeared taken aback, questioning if Jacob Elordi was single because the whole thing would only make sense then. One took that narrative further, opining that it would be wild if he were someone’s boyfriend but had his friend’s picture as his wallpaper.

Whether Jacob Elordi’s wallpaper choice was a gesture of friendship or something deeper remains a guess, but it has certainly reignited the public’s fascination with his off-screen life. The actor is not new to sparking romance rumors with his co-stars, though, and this latest moment only adds fuel to that familiar fire. For now, neither Elordi nor Cailee Spaeny has addressed the speculation, leaving fans to keep theorizing and scrolling, hoping for another glimpse into their undeniable connection.
