Zendaya has previously dated her Euphoria co-star Jacob Elordi, who is now in a relationship with model Kaia Gerber.
The two are on good terms, and Jacob was among those who congratulated Zendaya on becoming the youngest winner of the Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series Award.
She was also the second black woman to win in that category, after Viola Davis for her role as Annalise Keating on How To Get Away With Murder, and Jacob, 23, paid tribute to her on his Instagram account.
“Congratulations captain, bravo,” he wrote on his Instagram account, beside a photo of Zendaya as Rue in HBO’s Euphoria and a collection of love hearts.
In the popular show, Zendaya plays Rue Bennett, a teenager who spent her summer in a treatment centre to stay sober. She returns home for a new school year.
Meanwhile, Jacob portrayed local jock idol Nate Jacobs, who frequently fought with Rue and her new best friend Jules (Hunter Schafer).
Season two of the sitcom was supposed to premiere in 2020, however owing to the epidemic, filming did not start until 2021.
