In the world of glitz and glamour, Jacob Elordi, the heartthrob from Saltburn, finds himself in a whirlpool of controversy. This time, it’s not about a cinematic scene but a real-life drama that unfolded in Sydney’s Clovelly Hotel.
A Prank Gone Wrong
The buzz around Saltburn took a strange turn when Joshua Fox, a producer from “The Kyle & Jackie O Show,” encountered Elordi with an odd request. Fox wanted some of Elordi’s bathwater as a quirky gift for Jackie O, tapping into the viral fame of that movie scene. However, the situation quickly spiraled out of control. When Elordi asked Fox to stop filming, Fox persisted, citing his discomfort and the need for evidence.

According to Fox, Elordi’s response was to push him against a wall, placing his hands on Fox’s throat. This shocking claim has everyone talking, but the video evidence remains unseen.
Police Investigation Underway
According to Variety, the New South Wales Police are on the case, investigating the alleged assault that occurred in broad daylight.
“Officers attached to Eastern Beaches Police Area Command are investigating after a man was allegedly assaulted outside a hotel in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs,” the statement reads. “Police were told about 3:30 p.m. on Saturday 3 February 2024, a 32-year-old man was allegedly assaulted by a 26-year-old man. The man did not sustain any injuries. Inquiries into the incident is continuing.”
Despite the serious accusations, no one has reported any injuries. As the authorities dig deeper, the public eagerly awaits updates. Yet, Elordi’s side of the story remains unheard, leaving fans and critics alike in suspense.
Impact on Elordi’s Shining Career?
Jacob Elordi isn’t just any actor; he’s a rising star with nominations at the BAFTA Film Awards and projects with big names like Paul Schrader and Guillermo del Toro on the horizon. This incident comes at a critical time, threatening to overshadow his achievements and future in the industry. The silence from Elordi’s camp does little to quell the storm, leaving many to wonder about the repercussions on his promising career.
