Is Khloe Kardashian hinting at a new romance?

Khloe Kardashian has surprised fans by engaging in a playful moment with a high school teacher whose social media videos have made him a rising online favourite.

Jacob Myers-Norys, a maths and biology teacher from Santa Cruz, California, posted a video on Instagram on 5 December sharing facts about himself. He highlighted his Italian roots, academic degrees, former college athlete background and love for cooking. He ended the post with a tongue-in-cheek caption: “Somewhere out there is the woman who’s gonna ask how my school day was.”

Khloe then jumped into the comments, asking him, “How was your day??”

Fans encourage Khloe to ‘shoot her shot’

The interaction quickly caught fans’ attention. Commenters joked that Khloe had found her “Italian stallion”, while her best friend Malika Haqq joined in to praise her.

Jacob later shared a follow-up video revealing the moment had gone viral in his hometown.
“My entire town knows about it,” he said. “My students keep bugging me about it and my family group chat’s just been nonstop.”

He even invited Khloe to his school’s staff holiday party, and joked that he would happily attend Kris Jenner’s Christmas celebration if that didn’t work out.

Khloe’s dating outlook

Whether Khloe will respond remains to be seen. She has spoken in recent months about approaching dating more cautiously, explaining that becoming a mother has changed her priorities and the way she views relationships.

“Once I really was working on myself, I didn’t have the energy to date anyone else,” she told Elle last month. “My kids are my priority.”
