The couple has kept a very low profile over the past few months since news broke of their reported love connection, but little details have continued to trickle in that create a pretty compelling case for Kylothée — including a potential diss from Jenner's ex, rapper Travis Scott.
This likely won't play out on a three-episode arc of The Kardashians, so here's everything we know about Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet's relationship thus far.
Early April 2023: DeuxMoi reports Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet are dating.
The dating rumours caught fire during the first week of April via the celebrity gossip Instagram account DeuxMoi, which was lit up with anonymous tips about the potential coupling, including aforementioned rumours that the two would be attending Coachella 2023 together. While people claimed they had seen them together or have insider knowledge, nothing has been acknowledged, confirmed, or denied by Jenner or Chalamet.
17 April 2023: A source confirms the pair are dating.
Shortly after Coachella's first weekend, Entertainment Tonight reported that Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet were actually dating, like, for real. A source confirmed the rumors to ET, revealing that the wild card couple is currently “keeping things casual” for now.
"It’s not serious, but Kylie is enjoying hanging out with Timothée and seeing where it goes," the source told ET. "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 Kardashian-Jenner family does love an unexpected boyfriend, like Kendall's recent public — and romantic — outings with Bad Bunny, and Kim's whirlwind romance with Pete Davidson. (Kylie and her on-again, off-again partner Travis Scott split for the second time in early 2023, several months after the birth of their son Aire.)
Social media did not take the Jenner and Chalamet news well, though. Timothée is one of the Internet's favorite actors, a constant boyfriend-of-the-month, and rumours of his relationship with Kylie are… a shock, to say the least.
Jenner's ex Travis Scott appears to diss Chalamet in a song. Wait, What??
Jenner's ex Travis Scott released his long-awaited fourth studio album Utopia on July 28, and may have weighed in on her new relationship via the the seventh track “Meltdown" featuring Drake. Scott's song references Willy Wonka — the very character Chalamet will portray onscreen later this year: “Chocolate AP and chocolate the Vs (Vs), got the Willy Wonka factory (Vs) / Burn a athlete like it's calories, find another flame hot as me, b*tch.” It might not the most compelling diss of all time, but it certainly doesn't feel like a coincidence.
Jenner and Scott have had an on-again, off-again relationship for years; they have been co-parenting Stormi and Aire since their latest split in early 2023. “Kylie knows she and Travis will always be in each other’s lives, and they have an amazing coparenting relationship," a source previously shared of the former couple. “Part of her dating Timothée is in hopes of moving on from Travis, but that hasn’t happened yet. There’s always a possibility of reconciling with Travis at some point.”
2 August 2023: Rumours of a breakup are shut down by TMZ
On August 2, Life & Style reported that Chalamet “dumped" Jenner after seven months of dating. “She’s telling people that things between them naturally fizzled out because they’re both busy and traveling,” said the magazine's source, “Kylie is playing it casual, but her friends know this must sting.”
However, only a few hours later, TMZ published their own report that shut down those very Kylothée breakup rumors, calling the story one that “couldn't be further from the truth.” According to “multiple sources close to the couple,” Jenner and Chalamet are avoiding the public eye intentionally; their relationship is private, not over. One of TMZ's sources claimed “any reports that say otherwise are false,” while another advised the public “not to believe everything they read.” Well, then.
4 September 2023: Jenner and Chalamet are seen kissing at Beyoncé's Renaissance tour
Well, folks, it's official — Jenner and Chalamet are definitely a thing. The pair were spotted together at Beyoncé's 4 September birthday Renaissance show in Los Angeles, first chatting casually and then cuddling and kissing in the VIP section.
Yep, you read that right: cuddling and kissing.
In a video captured by a fellow concert attendee, the couple are seen dancing together, laughing, holding hands and kissing.
While we still don't have concrete proof that they're together-together (as in, a confirmation or denial from Jenner, Chalamet or their reps), these videos are certainly a compelling argument for Kylothée. Timmy on Kardashians when?
21 September 2023: Jenner uses a picture of herself and Chalamet as her lock screen
Their photog caught her with her phone in hand, and the image on its background is very clearly a pic of Jenner and Chalamet in a very cozy, up close and personal moment together. He's almost — but not quite — kissing her cheek in the zoomed-in couples selfie. (This is honestly really cute and relatable.) The pic probably makes Jenner smile every time she reaches for her phone.
Back in California, TMZ caught up with Chalamet in Beverly Hills and asked him about his romance with Jenner. While the actor didn't answer the queries, but he did give a little smile when her name came up. It's the subtlety for me.
