Kylie Jenner is not afraid to brag about her man, Timothée Chalamet, in the midst of his massive success.
“Kylie is really proud of him and is always low-key bragging about him to her friends and family,” a source told Us Weekly on Wednesday, March 18. “She is super supportive of his career and feels it’s very important. Even though it overlaps with her world a bit, going to premieres and awards shows still feels [like] new territory for her and she can get a little shy in that setting.”
The source continued, “Kylie is really in awe of how respected he is by his peers and loves showing up for him. She’s always hyping him up and had the best time being by his side at the Oscars. He says she calms his nerves, and he equally loves having her with him.”
Jenner and Chalamet were first romantically linked in 2023, when news broke that the reality TV star and the Wonka star were spending time together following Jenner’s split from on-again, off-again boyfriend Travis Scott. (Jenner shares daughter Stormi and son Aire with Scott, whom she broke up with after the 2022 holiday season.)
Inside Timothee Chalamet’s ‘Seamless’ Dynamic With Kylie Jenner’s Family
After Us confirmed Jenner and Chalamet’s romance that April, a source exclusively told Us that the actor “is a total gentleman and treats [Kylie] with respect.”
While the pair are famously private when it comes to their relationship, Jenner has joined her beau at various awards shows to support him amid a flurry of nominations for both 2024’s A Complete Unknown and 2025’s Marty Supreme. When Chalamet won his first Critics Choice Award earlier this year, Jenner was in the audience — and featured in the actor’s acceptance speech.
“Thank you to my partner of three years,” he said in January. “Thank you for our foundation. I love you. I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
In addition to supporting her boyfriend publicly, Kylie has privately been getting to know Chalamet’s family — including its matriarch.

“Kylie loves Timothee’s mom,” the source also told Us on Wednesday. “Kylie isn’t as close with the other family members but they have all been warm and welcoming whenever she sees them.”
As for Kylie’s famous family, sources previously told Us that Kris Jenner and Kylie’s sisters — Kendall Jenner, Kourtney Kardashian, Kim Kardashian and Khloé Kardashian— have really “embraced” the actor, adding that they “really like” Chalamet and believe he has “brought out a softer side to Kylie.”
“The kids love him, and Timothée has been integrated seamlessly into their lives,” the insider added. “It took a while for Kylie to introduce them, but now things are very normal, and he spends a lot of time with them.”
