Elordi was first linked to Gerber in late 2020. The model gushed about Elordi in a 2021 interview with Vogue, saying, "Being able to be with someone I trust, where we don't want anything from each other, having a safe, steady relationship like that, has really opened my eyes to the possibilities of love and what it feels like to love without conditions. Lust is touching other people or wanting them, but love is really seeing someone." At the time, Gerber revealed to the magazine that she was living at Elordi's home part-time.
However, the pair split in November 2021. Weeks later, Gerber was linked to actor Austin Butler.
