Since April 2023, Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet have quietly nurtured a relationship that has become one of Hollywood’s most intriguing romances. After more than two years of togetherness, the couple made their red carpet debut in May 2025 at the prestigious David Di Donatello Awards in Rome. Their public appearances continued to draw attention, particularly during significant events like the 2026 Critics Choice Awards and the Golden Globes, where Chalamet publicly thanked Jenner, further cementing their bond.
Caitlyn Jenner called Timothée Chalamet a ‘great kid’ and wants Kylie Jenner to be happy
Their high-profile relationship has inevitably drawn interest from the public and media alike, but what truly makes it noteworthy is the endorsement from Kylie’s family. Caitlyn Jenner, in particular, has been vocal in her praise for Chalamet, describing him as a “great kid” and “phenomenal actor.” During an interview at Los Angeles International Airport, Caitlyn expressed her pleasure, emphasizing that she values Kylie’s happiness above all. “I just want my daughter to be happy,” she commented to People. “And she is, and I like that.”
Such warm remarks from Caitlyn suggest a solid family approval amidst the media spotlight on Kylie and Timothée’s romance. Her positive impression of Chalamet comes at a time when his career is soaring, highlighted by his award-winning role in Marty Supreme.
On the other hand, Kris Jenner, Kylie’s mother, has shown her support more subtly but no less effectively. One of the most telling instances occurred in December 2025, when Kris featured on her Instagram Stories wearing a Marty Supreme bomber jacket. This choice of attire seemed to be a nod of approval for both Chalamet’s professional achievements and his relationship with her daughter, Kylie.

With such endorsements from her family, Kylie and Timothée’s relationship seems to be on a solid path, embraced by those closest to them as they navigate life in the public eye.
In early 2026, Kris also publicly celebrated Chalamet’s awards success by engaging on social media with his family’s posts. After Chalamet’s mother shared a clip of his Critics Choice Award win for Marty Supreme, Kris enthusiastically commented on the post with celebratory emojis and praise. “So exciting!!!!!!!” Kris commented, according to People. Her online interaction came at the same time Chalamet publicly thanked Kylie as his “partner” during his award acceptance.
Khloé Kardashian slyly mentioned Timothée Chalamet on an episode of The Kardashians
Khloé Kardashian has only occasionally commented on Kylie Jenner’s relationship with Timothée Chalamet, and when she does, it’s usually playful. On a November 2025 episode of The Kardashians, Khloé joked about going to NBA games with her sister. She said, “We’re not dating basketball players — we’re going to the games courtside, baby!”
The remark was a lighthearted way of acknowledging Chalamet’s presence in Kylie’s life without directly praising or critiquing him, reflecting Khloé’s style of supporting her sister while keeping the family’s personal matters private.
Kylie Jenner mouthed ‘I love you’ to Timothée Chalamet at the 2026 Critics Choice Awards
Kourtney and Kim Kardashian, as well as Kendall Jenner, haven’t publicly spoken about Timothée Chalamet. While Kylie Jenner herself has been relatively private about her relationship, she’s occasionally shared insights into how she feels about keeping their romance out of the spotlight and how she supports him publicly.
In a past interview, Kylie explained that she prefers to keep her personal life, especially her relationship with Chalamet, to herself rather than making it fodder for media speculation, noting that public opinion can make decisions “tougher” when a relationship is constantly analyzed online.
Their connection has still played out in visible moments. At the 2026 Critics Choice Awards, Chalamet gave a heartfelt shoutout to Kylie, calling her his “partner of three years” during his Best Actor acceptance speech. Kylie mouthed “I love you” back from the audience, signaling mutual affection in front of millions.
