Jacob Elordi is under police investigation for allegedly assaulting a radio producer

From there, the situation allegedly escalated when the actor “got in [Fox’s] face” and asked if Fox could not only delete the footage from his phone, but also from his recently deleted folder. “I refused to because I’m like, ‘I feel really uncomfortable right now and this is the only evidence,” Fox said. “And then Jacob kind of just flips and he kind of pushes me against the wall and his hands are on my throat.”

Representative for Jacob Elordi did not immediately respond to The A.V. Club’s request for comment on this story. In a statement shared with Variety, the New South Wales police department said they were looking into the matter:

Officers attached to Eastern Beaches Police Area Command are investigating after a man was allegedly assaulted outside a hotel in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs,” a statement from NSW Police 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.

On “The Kyle & Jackie O Show,” Fox and the two hosts reference the fact that Jimmy Fallon also “pretended to sell bathwater” so it’s a “thing in [Elordi’s] world.” While they’re right that the infamous scene was referenced during Elordi’s recent Tonight Show appearance, Fallon was actually joking about the fact that people have made candles “scented” like the bathwater. He was not actually trying to sell it or asking Elordi to make it himself, as Fox implied in his own approach. You can watch that clip below.
