American actress Joey King only began her acting career in 2006 at the age of 4, but her filmography is extensive, to say the least. She is known for films such as Ramona and Beezus, Oz the Great and Powerful, and in 2018 for the romantic Netflix film The Kissing Booth.
Although King had already established herself in Hollywood, the success of The Kissing Booth took her career to a new phase. Let us learn more about her…

While accepting commercial appearances, Joey King began auditions for film and television show roles. She was cast in episodes of The Suite Life by Zack & Cody, Malcolm in the Middle, and Jericho. In 2010, Joey was cast in her first leading role in the adventure comedy Ramona and Beezus, in which she plays Ramona Quimby, the younger sister of Selena Gomez’s character Beezus Quimby.

Boyfriend and Relationship Timeline
One of the main points of discussion in The Kissing Both was Joey’s chemistry with her screen match-up Jacob Elordi. The two constantly exchanged their PDA images on their respective social media sites to spark more interest in the romantic film comedy, and it worked. The fans became more and more curious about their relationship status in real life.
They met on the set of the film, but at first, they started off as friends only. In her interview with Bello Magazine, Joey revealed that when she first met Jacob she thought he was cute, but they started their relationship only as friends. But when they spent about 17 long hours on the set during the shooting in South Africa, they became very close and soon they developed feelings for each other.
The lovebirds did not hide their relationship when they went to Instagram to post sweet snapshots of themselves. Their individual Instagram statements reveal the details of their relationship timeline. The couple was named Social Media Officer by Jacob’s Page in April 2017.
