Is Kylie Jenner forging a new connection with Oscar-nominated actor Timothée Chalamet? According to Star, the beauty mogul and the Dune star have been getting closer since Paris Fashion Week in January. An insider revealed that 27-year-old Chalamet has been pursuing 25-year-old Jenner, adding, "He's made it clear he wants to date her."
The reality star, who recently ended her on-again, off-again relationship with rapper Travis Scott, the father of her children Stormi, 5, and Aire, 1, isn't rushing into anything. The source noted that Kylie's newfound independence from Travis has been bolstered by the attention she's received from Timothée.
The actor, who once dated Madonna's daughter Lourdes Leon in high school, has reportedly been spending more time in Los Angeles after purchasing a home in Beverly Hills last year. The insider shared, "He's very charming and such a huge movie star, Kylie figures, why not see where this goes?"
People also reported on the unexpected romance between Jenner and Chalamet, with a "Jenner source" claiming that the two have been hanging out weekly in a casual, low-pressure relationship. The source said, "She is getting to know him. Kylie is having fun. After years of back and forth with Travis, she just wants to date without any pressure."
According to the source, Jenner and Chalamet met earlier in 2023 at an event in Europe and have since been enjoying each other's company. The insider added that her family is supportive of the blossoming romance and eager for her to move on from Scott.
Entertainment Tonight confirmed on April 17 that Jenner and Chalamet are indeed dating, with a source stating, "They are keeping things casual at this point." The source continued, "It's not serious, but Kylie is enjoying hanging out with Timothée and seeing where it goes. It's been really fun for her because it feels a lot different than her past relationships. It's new and exciting for Kylie, and she's having a lot of fun."
The source also mentioned that Chalamet is friends with Jenner's sister Kendall, making it easy for Kylie to include him in her life. With both stars enjoying each other's company and exploring their connection, fans are left wondering if this could be the beginning of a new Hollywood power couple.
