Kendall Jenner Just Left the Biggest Thirst Trap for Ben Simmons and He Fell for It

From Seventeen

While all of the other Kardashian sisters have settled into their love lives, your fave, Kendall Jenner, always seems to be living up the single life. I mean, fries before guys (or pizza boys), no?

But then came a summer fling with basketball player Ben Simmons, which seemed to end as the leaves began to change and the air started to cool. Kendall moved on, possibly with her BFB (best friend's brother). That didn't last too long either, however, and now, with cuffing season upon us, Kendall seems to be settling back in with Ben for the cold months. Need a refresh on this complicated, on-again-off-again relationship? Honestly, same. Check out the timeline below.

January 10, 2019:

If the Kardashian/Jenners know anything, it's how to leave a foolproof thirst trap, which no one can resist. Ben Simmons fell pray to Kendall Jenner when she posted an extremely seductive video on her Instagram. Yeah, she may have been hard at work, modeling for a shoot, but she looks gorgeous af doing it.

Ben wasted no time, commenting, "Come here" on the post.

Unfortunately, Ben was in DC when Kendall posted the photo, playing against the Washington Wizards (at least they won). The good news is, we're sure Kendall will be looking just as fabulous the next time Ben is in LA.

January 1, 2019:

Kendall Jenner attended another of Ben Simmon's basketball games on New Years Day, much to the disappointment of the Philadelphia 76ers fans.

According to People, 76ers fans are scared of the infamous "Kardashian Kurse," which causes basketball players dating one of the famous sisters to lose games whenever she attends. This fear even prompted fans to create a Change.org page to literally ban her from attending anymore of Ben's games.

On the page, one fan blames Kendall for the team's loss against, "the worst team in the league, the Cleveland Cavaliers." The petition already has over 10,000 signatures, but according the Sixers co-owner, Michael Rubin, Kendall isn't going anywhere.

"I think Kendall’s awesome," Michael told Business Insider. "I was with Kendall a few days ago and Kendall insisted on going home and getting a good night’s sleep when Ben wanted to stay out for a late dinner." Michael called the petition "ridiculous," saying, "Kendall’s been a great influence on [Ben], and we’ve won every game she’s been at but one so far."

December 26, 2018:

Kendall's rumored BF, Ben Simmons, must really be missing his bae this holiday season. After the model posted a glam solo shot from the annual Kardashian Christmas Eve Holiday party, the basketball player seemed to be left speechless, simply commenting two drooling emojis on the photo.

Seriously, someone get this guy some water because he is thirsty af!

December 2, 2018:

Last week, it was reported by Us Weekly that while Ben and Kendall are hanging out again following their short-lived summer fling, "they’re not exclusive and they’ll never be boyfriend [and] girlfriend, but they’re still having fun and hooking up." Despite that definitive statement, Kendall's actions prove otherwise.

Kendall recently attended three of Ben's basketball games in one week, even sitting with his mom at the most recent event. The two seemed to hit it off, chatting all night while watching Ben play.

Hm, would you introduce someone to your mom if you never planned to get serious? I don't think so! Seems like things are really heating up for these too, just in time for the holidays.

November 23-25, 2018:

After a rumored fling with model Anwar Hadid led nowhere, Kendall Jenner seems to be back together with her basketball bae, Ben Simmons.

The day after Thanksgiving, Kendall attended Ben's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers (where she also took the opportunity to boo Tristan Thompson).

In response to the heckling, Khloé defended Kendall, saying "my sister was watching HER man play against my man," adding to the suspicion that the model and athlete are back together.

The next night, the two headed out to dinner at a French restaurant, according to TMZ, a very romantic place to have a date, if you ask me. But their weekend together didn't end there. Kendall attended Ben's game on Sunday as well, and was seen going crazy, cheering for her bae in the stands.

So, what do you think? Was Kendall just enjoying her weekend with a friend, or are the two back together?

September 3, 2018:

Apparently, Kendall Jenner has a new man in her life. According to TMZ, Kendall was seen getting pretty cozy with Anwar Hadid, Bella and Gigi's brother. The two of them hung out throughout Labor Day weekend and they were even seen kissing at Nobu on Sunday night.

This isn't the first time that Kendall and Anwar have been linked together. Kendall posted a photo of the two of them back in October 2016 with the caption, "dibs," while tagging his sisters in the photo.

While Kendall is a lot more private about her relationships, including her previous one with Ben, it looks like she doesn't care about privacy when it comes to her new rumored beau.

August 31, 2018:

After a summer fling, it seems like the couple has called it quits. Despite the fact that the two still like each other and apparently are still in contact, their busy schedules drove them apart.

“Kendall and Ben’s relationship is fizzling and dissipating due to scheduling conflicts,” a source told Us Weekly. “Kendall is so busy and has so much going on and doesn’t want to wait around for anyone."

According to E!, Kendall was never "fully committed" to Ben. "She always wanted to keep her options open. She likes Ben, but she knew it was more of a summer fling."

Now that the summer is almost over, it's time for Kenny to get back to work. Boys can wait.

August 14, 2018: The couple are soaking up some sun together in Mexico, along with Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson.

The couple have been keeping things sort of quiet on social media, but a source told E! Online that they arrived in Mexico right after Kylie's big 21st birthday bash.

"They've had a fun few days of pool and beach time at Joe Francis' house in Punta Mita."

Another source told People that the couple is getting very close, but Kendall will likely not open up publicly about the relationship.

"She’s being very private about her relationship with Ben. Kendall’s really different from her sisters in that sense," the source said. "She honestly doesn’t want people talking about who she’s dating and is very protective of her personal life. She hates the attention."

July 20, 2018: The couple was spotted together at Ben's 22nd birthday party. A bday party invite is a big step in a relationship, so maybe the two are getting serious.

Kendall looks super happy accompanying her bae at the festivities and doesn't that cake look familiar? It totally resembles the ones the Kardashian/Jenner clan gets for every birthday, every year! Maybe it was provided by Kendall! What a sweet gf.

July 4, 2018: Looks like Kendall and Ben were getting extra cozy on the Fourth of July! Kendall's sister, Khloe, threw the most fabulous holiday party and shared a bunch of moments on her Instagram Stories. In one of the videos, which a fan shared on Twitter, you can see Kendall leaning up against Ben.

Ben also posted to his Instagram stories and shared a pic of Kendall's nails.

We know they're Kendall's because they look exactly like the long, bright manicure she showed off on her Instagram account.

June 27, 2018: While fans couldn't help but speculate about how far this budding romance would go, Kendall herself seemed to confirm things recently when she was spotted publicly kissing Ben at a gas station. Ben stuck his head into the car and Kendall leaned over to lay one on him. You can see the pictures here.

Another big step in their relationship: The couple are now living together in a $25,000- a-month rental house, according to TMZ.

Anwar meanwhile, has been out of the picture since their make out was caught on camera.

June 17,2018: Kendall and Ben were recently spotted at fancy health food store Erewhon Market in Los Angeles, according to Page Six. The two had a low-key date where they "were both browsing around right in the front, way out in the open,” a witness told the outlet, and they were “definitely not hiding their relationship from anyone.”

The source also said they were "coy" and "exchanging glances [but were] by no means all over each other.” Interesting.

Before this foodie outing, Ben and Kenny were seen shopping at Barneys with Simmons carrying a shopping bag. Was the bag his? Or did he buy something for his bae Kendall?!

June 12, 2018: So is Kendall committed to Ben? Or is she just trying to put herself out there and date more? It looks like the latter might be true. A source told People that Kendall just wants to have a good time. “Kendall is having fun. She doesn’t want a serious relationship and is just enjoying being single. She feels that whenever she has been serious about guys in the past, it’s kind of a mess and doesn’t work out. She invested time in the relationship with Blake Griffin. She isn’t planning on doing the same right now,” the source said.

June 5, 2018: In the midst of all these cute lovey-dovey hangs, a new bae entered the picture. On June 5, 2018, Kenny was seen locking lips with Gigi and Bella Hadid's little bro, Anwar. The pair was spotted together at Socialista New York where they reportedly spent hours kissing, cuddling, and flirting like fools in love. TMZ caught all the PDA on camera.

After the steamy make out sesh, fans wondered if Simmons and Jenner were officially calling it quits, but it looks like the game is still on (and Kenny is totes playing the field).

June 3, 2018: The two were also spotted riding bikes together in West Hollywood. Kendall rocked a pair of black jeans and an itty-bitty white crop top while riding her blue cruiser. Ben wore a white tee and grey shorts.

May 29, 2018: According to Page Six, the two were reportedly spotted on a lunch date at the Beverly Hills Hotel in late May. They were also seen hanging out at a Manhattan restaurant called Vandal. "Security measures seemed to have been taken to ensure Kendall and Ben enjoyed their night hassle free," a witness said. "They were smiling the night away with their friends."
