This is the first time that Kendall publicly confirmed she and Simmons are, in fact, dating. The rumors of their romantic indulgence first hit the media on May 2018. Simmons confirmed he was dating the model in August 2018, revealing The Daily Telegraph about their relationship.
The basketball player told the Australian media,
"It is going great."
He added,
"It is one of those things that I don’t like to talk about too much because it is personal,"
The couple always maintains the talk about their romantic life to the bare minimum leaving their fans talking about the back and forth comments they reciprocate in each other's Instagram posts.
Jenner is undoubtedly a basketball fan given how often she is seen on the sidelines cheering on her man. She was even pictured with Simmons' mom at one of the many games she attended.
Jenner explained on Ellen's Talkshow,
"I've been into basketball for a little while, I used to go to games with Khloé a lot and I just got really into it."
And further elaborated,
"I used to [play] when I was in middle school, but I just wasn't that good."
Well, whatever be the case, Kendall Jenner and Ben Simmons are deeply in love with each other. Now, they are an official couple! Cheers to the couple!
