Did the model attend a Black Lives Matter protest with Harry Styles?

Kendall Jenner was previously criticized for her silence on the Black Lives Matter movement and racial injustice. Per AceShowbiz, a friend of her ex-boyfriend Harry Styles was the one of the ones to drag the model. Harry attended a protest in Los Angeles, California with a group of his friends. Some of the photos went viral on social media. Of course, fans assumed the dark-haired woman in the photos was Kendall. His friend shot down the claims and threw shade at the reality star.

“For those wondering if any of us are kendall – no lol [sic],” Harry’s female friend wrote. “She was not at the protest. She was looking for a Pepsi.”

This was a dig towards Kendall’s controversial 2017 Pepsi ad in which she handed a can to a police officer at a protest. Harry Styles and Kendall Jenner were first romantically linked in 2013 after they were photographed on a date in West Hollywood. Despite hanging out on various occasions, they never confirmed the romance rumors. The pair was also spotted practicing social distancing via their luxury vehicles back in April.
