Jenna Ortega Linked to Musician Elias Rønnenfelt as Past Far-Right Imagery Controversy Reemerges

Viral footage of the pair renews attention to his prior denials.

Overview

  • Ortega was filmed with the Iceage frontman in a widely shared clip, which fueled unconfirmed dating rumors that she has not addressed.
  • Coverage revisited artwork Rønnenfelt made at 18 that included imagery critics associate with neo-Nazi or quasi-fascist symbols.
  • In a Pitchfork interview, he said the references came from an ’80s film and stated that neither he nor his band holds right-wing views.
  • He apologized for inviting a band with a racially offensive name to an Iceage-run festival and said he deeply regrets not stopping the set.
  • Public interest has built since Ortega appeared in his 2025 Mona Lisa video, with later sightings in Copenhagen and Dublin renewing scrutiny of both figures.
