Switch Krobus not accepting the void ghost pendant

[NexustheChocoholic]

I have both full hearts with Krobus and the first house upgrade yet he won't accept the void ghost pendant even though I'm not married to anyone nor have given anyone a bouquet. I have restarted my game and console multiple times, checked for new updates, etc. but nothing seems to be working. I'm on Switch Version 1.6.9.37, have my language as English, and am in single player. This has never happened before the 1.6 update and this is my first time trying to get Krobus as a roommate in 1.6.

Since somebody reported yesterday that they accidentally gifted Krobus the mermaid’s pendant and he moved in, I’d be curious to know if that works for you.
