Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet have quietly yet significantly escalated their relationship status, making it Instagram official – at least from Kylie's perspective. On July 1st, Tuesday, Jenner took the bold step of following Chalamet's verified Instagram handle "@tchalamet," marking her first public display of affection towards him on the platform after more than two years of dating. The 27-year-old beauty empire builder maintains an exclusive following list, currently comprising only 119 select accounts, and now, her Oscar-nominated beau graces this elite circle.
While Jenner made the initial social media move, Chalamet, 29, has yet to reciprocate the gesture; his profile still stands resolute in its solitude, following no one. This digital development arrives just over a month after the pair was last seen in public, cosying up courtside at a New York Knicks playoff game versus the Indiana Pacers in Indianapolis on May 31st. The duo didn't shy away from public displays of affection, donning matching Knicks attire and indulging in kisses and hugs throughout the evening.
Jenner and Chalamet's romance blossomed in April 2023, shortly after Jenner's split from Travis Scott, with whom she shares two children, Stormi, 7, and Aire, 3. By May of that year, Us Weekly confirmed their relationship, citing a source who praised Chalamet as "a total gentleman who treats [Kylie] with respect." The insider further described him as "very charming" and "easy to talk to," adding, "He's not like any of the other guys she's dated before. Although he may not seem like her usual type, they share an undeniable chemistry."
