Sources say Timothée Chalamet is hesitant to fully commit to his relationship with Kylie Jenner, reportedly because he’s worried about the negative attention often given to those who date into the Kardashian family – a phenomenon known online as the “Kardashian curse.” He’s allegedly concerned about being overwhelmed by their intense media presence and has observed how others have been affected by that level of fame.
Because of this, the relationship is said to be progressing at his pace, with him keeping his distance from the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner family. Meanwhile, Jenner’s family is reportedly wary of Chalamet’s motives, with some believing he’s using her for publicity.
One source claims Chalamet only seems interested in spending time with Jenner when he has a movie to promote, pointing to their public appearances during awards season as evidence. The insider also alleges that Jenner frequently has to plead for his time, and even when they do go out, he prefers private dates away from her family and any cameras.
