Are Ben Simmons and Kendall Jenner Still Dating?
The last #Bendall update went something like this:
- Terez Owens claimed the pair had broken up.
- Philadelphia papazarro HughE Dillon called bullshit.
- He later apologized to Terez.
Along the way, that Robert Littal guy at Black Sports Online reported that Kendall had been hanging out with ex-boyfriends Blake Griffin and Jordan Clarkson. Blah blah blah and so on.
Anyway, Kendall is on the June cover of Vogue Australia, and the entire story is posted online. There’s a section that touches on Simmons, who is from Melbourne, that reads like this:
Navigating her way, on her own terms, is an approach that has spilled over into Jenner’s personal life. She is dating Australian-born basketballer Ben Simmons, also 23, and although the pair do not talk openly about their relationship, they are clearly smitten. Jenner revealed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in February that they’d been dating “for a bit now” and on the day of Vogue’s shoot she streamed Simmons’s game for the Philadelphia 76ers while she was in hair and make-up. Later, she Face-timed Simmons, cheekily holding up the March/April issue of GQ Australia that had him on the cover.
“she is dating Australian-born basketballer Ben Simmons”
Is she? Maybe this interview was done a while ago. I think that’s usually how it works, but I dunno; it been an “on and off” type of thing with #Bendall.
I have asked HughE to weigh in on this. I will also contact my sources.
Reporting for E! News, I’m Kevin Kinkead.
EDIT:
I heard back from HughE, who wrote this on his blog:
Are they , aren’t they. I’ve been quoted in the media on both sides. But according to the June edition of Vogue Australia, Kendall Jenner chats about dating Ben Simmons, who hails from Australia.
Posing for the magazine’s cover, Kendall hinted in the interview that she’d possibly like to get engaged to Ben ‘one day’.
The interview was done about a month ago, and since both of them are low profile peeps, we’ll just have to wait. I’m pretty sure the rumor of her hanging out with ex-boyfriend Harry Styles, is just that a rumor. I don’t think she’s his type anymore. I believe he’s going the way of George Michael, right now bi sexual, and at some point he’ll come out.
We’ll have to wait and see what happens with #Bendall (and Harry Styles).
