Kendall Jenner has once again set the rumor mill on fire. On Wednesday afternoon, December 17, the 30-year-old supermodel was spotted in West Hollywood spending time with 48-year-old fragrance industry heavyweight Ben Gorham — and the encounter immediately sparked speculation about a possible new romance.
Eyewitnesses say the pair started their day together early, casually browsing an antique shop before continuing their outing with coffee. Later, paparazzi caught them again in a parking lot as they headed off together, fueling suspicions that this was more than just a friendly meetup.
Jenner kept things low-key but stylish, opting for an oversized black sweater layered over a white T-shirt, loose black trousers, and burgundy ballet flats. She completed the effortless look with rectangular sunglasses and a textured leather tote. Gorham matched the understated vibe in a black leather jacket, charcoal sweatshirt, relaxed black jeans, classic Timberland boots, and a backward baseball cap.
While neither side has commented on the nature of their relationship, this isn’t the first time Kendall and Ben have been seen together. Their initial public appearance dates back to September, suggesting that whatever is going on between them may have been quietly developing for months.
For those unfamiliar with Gorham, he is the creative force behind the cult-favorite Swedish fragrance brand Byredo. After two decades at the helm, he stepped away from the company earlier this year — a move that only added to his mystique.
Coincidence, friendship, or the start of an unexpected romance? Until either Kendall or Ben speaks out, fans are left piecing together the clues — and watching closely for the next sighting.
