It looks like there might be trouble in paradise for one of Hollywood’s most unexpected couples. Timothee Chalamet is reportedly getting cold feet about his relationship with Kylie Jenner, according to a RadarOnline report citing an anonymous source close to the situation.
The “Dune” star is said to be looking for a way out—and quickly. The source claimed that Chalamet is growing “desperate” to break things off with the reality TV star turned beauty mogul. Apparently, what started as a low-key, maybe even fun pairing, might now be turning into something he didn’t sign up for.
“She knows he’s getting antsy,” the insider told RadarOnline, alleging that Kylie’s behavior has shifted over time. According to the source, she’s been treating Chalamet “like a prized possession,” and it hasn’t gone unnoticed. As reported by Reality Tea, the situation is getting more complicated due to concerns from people close to Chalamet that dating a reality star could start to affect his image. “Having a reality star girlfriend could hurt his credibility,” they claimed.
Fans first started buzzing about the two back in 2023, when dating rumors popped up online. Since then, they’ve kept things pretty quiet—no red carpets or PDA-heavy social media posts—until recently. Even now, neither Chalamet nor Jenner has made any public statements about their relationship or the new rumors.
Still, the insider claims the dynamic has changed behind the scenes. Kylie is allegedly “getting increasingly needy and insecure around Timothée,” the source said. It doesn’t help that Chalamet is known to have what the source described as a “roving eye” when she’s not around.
Despite the reports, the two were very much seen together just days ago. On May 31, they showed up courtside for Game Six of the Eastern Conference Finals at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, where the New York Knicks took on the Indiana Pacers.
They were both decked out in Knicks gear—Chalamet wore a bright orange Knicks jacket and matching orange and blue pants, while Kylie sported a Knicks jersey jacket over a white tank top with jeans. They looked happy, relaxed, and totally into the game, which made the rumors of a breakup feel a little more complicated.
This isn’t the first time public perception has collided with private drama in a Kardashian-Jenner romance, and if history is any indicator, the story may continue to evolve—on or off the record.
While the couple hasn’t commented publicly, the swirling gossip is already fueling fan theories and online speculation. Whether they’re drifting apart or just dealing with the pressures of fame and wildly different careers, all eyes will be on their next move.
