Kylie Jenner is reportedly smitten with her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet, and won’t stop bragging about him to her family and friends.
The reality TV star, who has been his plus-one for most of the award shows, is said to be in “awe” of the actor and loves “showing up” for him amid his Hollywood success.
Things may intensify soon as reports suggest Kylie Jenner is getting to know his family, including his mom, while her own family thinks he’s brought out her softer side.
Kylie Jenner Is In ‘Awe’ Of Timothée Chalamet
Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet continue to make headlines for their fairytale romance despite rumors suggesting otherwise.
The couple, who put up an affectionate display at the recently held Oscars, are standing on solid grounds in their relationship as a source revealed that the makeup mogul is in “awe” of the “Marty Supreme” actor and loves supporting him amid his massive success.
“Kylie is really proud of him and is always low-key bragging about him to her friends and family,” an insider told Us Weekly. “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.”
The Couple Turned Heads During The Award Season With Stunning Red Carpet Appearances
Jenner and Chalamet have been at it for about three years now, and usually appear at award shows side-by-side.
Earlier this year, when he won the Critics’ Choice award, Jenner was in the audience and named her in his acceptance speech.
“Thank you to my partner of three years,” he said. “Thank you for our foundation. I love you. I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
More recently, she was by his side for the Oscars even though he lost out on the Best Actor Award for his work on “Marty Supreme.”
Kylie Jenner Is Protective Of The Actor
The Oscars were not a great night for Chalamet, as not only did he go home empty-handed, but he was ridiculed by host Conan O’Brien for his controversial comment on ballet and opera.
Body language reader James weighed in on the dynamics between the actor and Jenner at the event, explaining that the reality TV star became protective of him.
James told the Daily Mail that Chalamet appeared “quite submissive” with his gesture, as Jenner “leaned over him protectively, flashing a maternal-looking warning expression from her eyes as well as a tolerant and calm-looking mouth smile.”
The expert added that while Chalamet “opened his mouth wider in an expression of embarrassment and nodded slowly in a gesture of recognition and acceptance” as O’Brien continued with his monologue, Jenner appeared “less comfortable, clenching and unclenching her hands before performing one very odd, loud clap, suggesting a desire to get the joke over and move on.”
The Business Mogul Is Getting To Know Timothée Chalamet’s Family
Meanwhile, things between them are now understood to be involving families, as reports suggest Jenner has been getting to know his folks, particularly his mom.
“Kylie loves Timothée’s mom,” the source who spoke to Us Weekly shared. “Kylie isn’t as close with the other family members, but they have all been warm and welcoming whenever she sees them.”
It appears her own family has also returned the gesture, as sources previously told the news outlet that her famous sisters and her mom have really “embraced” him, 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.”
Rumors Of Tension Between The Couple Surfaced In Recent Times
However, the road hasn’t really been a smooth ride for the pair as there have been rumors of tension between them, especially after Chalamet lost the Best Actor Award at the Oscars.
Reports claim the 30-year-old actor “took the loss very personally,” and blamed it on his relationship with Jenner and the Kardashian connection.
“Timothée thinks the Kylie relationship hurt his image with older voters,” an insider told Rob Shuter’s #ShuterScoop. “He believes the Kardashian circus cost him the Oscar.”
However, sources close to Jenner have refuted the claims, saying that the “KUWTK” alum has been voicing her frustration over his loss.
“Kylie is furious,” a source said. “She’s telling friends the loss had nothing to do with her.”
