THE RUNDOWN
Model Kaia Gerber has been in the spotlight since childhood, being the daughter of super model Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber and in brand campaigns since she was a child. When she was still a teenager in 2019, she told British Vogue that her early career kept her too busy for relationships.
'When I'm working, I don't have the energy to even flirt with anyone. I'm sorry, I just can't,' Gerber said. 'But I'm not losing hope in all love forever.'
In 2021, while talking to Vogue, Gerber expanded on how her romantic life had developed.
'I found myself in situations where I was, like, I actually don't have the life experience that I need to handle this,' she said of dating. 'You know, I was doing fashion month, but I was so young I had kissed, like, only one person. I had never had a high school sweetheart or anything.'
Gerber has frequently been linked to older men, and explained that while working in fashion, she was mostly surrounded by older people.
'I got put in situations where one day I'd wake up and be like, 'How did I get here? I have no idea what I'm doing, and I need help,'' she explained. 'And being able to ask for that help was amazing. That's what real growing up means, not being afraid to ask.'
In her process of discovery, Gerber has been in a number of high-profile relationships with other stars. Here's everything to know about Kaia Gerber's dating history so far.
Model Wellington Grant was linked to Gerber in early 2019, but they never confirmed if they were dating. In February, they were seen several times in New York, including leaving the Mercer Hotel together on Valentine's Day. They later were spotted in Milan and Paris.
They were seen together in March that year at a Stella McCartney show during Fashion Week. Since neither model ever admitted to being in a relationship, there's no known reason for why it may have fizzled out.
In late 2019, the then 18-year-old model was reportedly dating the then 25-year-old comedian Pete Davidson. Page Six stated that they likely met while at an Alexander Wang show in June 2019, where Davidson made his fashion debut and Gerber also modeled. Davidson had been dating actress Margaret Qualley, but they split sometime in August.
By November, sources told E! that Gerber and Davidson were official.
'Kaia and Pete are definitely in a romantic relationship,' one insider stated. 'They have been friends for a while now and run in the same friend circle, but became romantic recently. They started hanging out alone more often after meeting up in NYC in October. Kaia expressed she loved Pete's personality. She thinks he is charming and is very intrigued.'
Davidson was living in New York City, but had been visiting Gerber in Malibu.
'They have been texting a lot this past month and are definitely seeing where it goes,' the source said.
For his birthday on November 18, Gerber brought the Saturday Night Live star a birthday cake. She also brought him to a Miami wedding as her date that month. They broke up soon after, and Davidson spoke in February 2020 about how he needed to go to rehab while they were dating.
'She's very young, and I'm fucking going through a lot, and it was before I went to rehab,' Davidson said. 'It's just like, she should be having fun. She shouldn't have to worry about some dude that just has issues and shit. She should be enjoying her work."
He added, 'It just wasn't the right place or the right time at all. Her parents were really helpful and stuff, so they're cool.'
Cindy Crawford told Vogue in an interview that they tried to be supportive of Gerber dating Davidson while conscious it might not work out.
'So many people have difficult teen years with their kids, and we thought we'd kind of skated through that period,' Crawford said. 'And a little later, it hit us in ways we didn't necessarily expect. But you just have to let your kids fly and be there to pick them up if they fall.'
In September 2020, Gerber was linked to Euphoria actor Jacob Elordi after they were seen together on both coasts and during a Los Cabos trip that month with her parents.
'Jacob is very sweet to Kaia,' a source told People in November. 'They are always very loving and cute together. It's obvious that Cindy and Rande approve of Jacob, too. They spend a lot of time together.'
In her June 2021 interview with Vogue, Gerber said of her relationship, '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.'
In September 2021, they walked the red carpet at the opening gala for the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures.
They broke up a month later. In early 2022, while being interviewed by Men's Health, Elordi had nothing but kind words for his former flame.
'She handles herself wonderfully publicly,' he explained. 'And I've learned so much from her about how to handle it, how to deal with it, and just kind of be whatever about it, you know?'
In December 2021, Gerber was linked to actor Austin Butler, but they weren't red carpet official until May 2022, when they were photographed at the 2022 Met Gala.
A few weeks later, they were seen kissing at the Cannes premiere of his film Elvis.
Butler won a Golden Globe for the film in January 2023, and Gerber was by his side. She joined him again in March at the annual Vanity Fair Oscar Party.
They continued to date throughout the year and into 2024. They were last seen in New York City in August of that year.
In January 2025, TMZ reported that they'd broken up before the new year, with a source saying, 'The relationship just simply ran its course after a good three years together.'
In early 2025, a source told People that Gerber was dating actor Lewis Pullman, the 32-year-old son of actor Bill Pullman. They were seen together on his birthday at Los Angeles restaurant Salazar.
'They've been spending time together the last few weeks,' the source said. 'They're a cute couple and very low-key.'
Another source speaking with Us Weekly said they'd actually been dating for several months.
'Kaia and Lewis have actually been together for a while now,' the insider explained. 'They started dating in early December [2024]. They kept it under wraps until the news of her and Austin's split came out. Kaia and Austin have been broken up since October.'
The source added, 'In early December, Kaia and Lewis started seriously hanging out and were seen all around L.A., but mostly on the east side. Kaia would make sure to be in a hat to try and be unnoticed, but they would be at their favorite restaurants, bars and clubs, holding hands and showing PDA. They were just frequenting crowds that didn't really know them.'
The new couple has 'known each other for a while now,' and 'run in the same circle and have similar friend groups, and that's how they were introduced,' the insider went on, saying their connection is 'very natural and relaxed.'
They continued, 'Kaia likes that this relationship feels low-pressure and that Lewis is a very low-key guy...They have a lot of chemistry and a very easygoing relationship. She's really happy and feels like she can be herself. There's no pressure to be an A-list couple like there was in her past relationships.'
