According to a recent report by Radar Online, the Oscar-nominated Dune star is growing increasingly cautious about how deep he treads into the Kardashian universe. Despite dating Kylie Jenner, Chalamet has reportedly made it clear he has no interest in becoming part of the wider Kardashian-Jenner circus, much to the frustration of Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, and Khloé Kardashian.
'Too Smart for the Reality Game'
An insider told Radar Online “Timmy appreciates that Kylie’s family is trying to get to know him, but he’s wise enough to be aware that they almost certainly have ulterior motives, like getting him onto The Kardashians and using his name and connections for networking purposes.”
Though Chalamet has attended a few family functions at the behest of Kris Jenner, sources claim he only drops by briefly and quickly finds excuses to leave. He’s allegedly turned down lavish family trips to Palm Springs and Turks and Caicos, and avoids too much contact with Kim and Khloé, despite their repeated invitations.
One notable exception is Kendall Jenner, who at 29 is closer in age to Chalamet. “He and Kylie will occasionally hang out with Kendall,” the insider noted, suggesting that his snub isn't aimed at the entire family—just the machinery of their fame.
Fear of the Kardashian Curse?
The actor's reluctance appears rooted in more than just social preference. Those close to Chalamet are said to have warned him about the potential career pitfalls of associating too closely with reality TV royalty. With names like Kanye West, Lamar Odom, and even Caitlyn Jenner having faced well-documented turmoil after stepping into the Kardashian spotlight, Chalamet may be choosing self-preservation over spectacle.
“Timmy’s seen the likes of Caitlyn Jenner, Kanye West, Lamar Odom and so many other dudes who’ve been ruined once Kris got her claws into them,” the source added. “He’ll be damned if that’s his path.”
A Calculated Romance
Despite all the caution, insiders claim the actor is still enjoying his romance with Kylie, with one source bluntly stating, “She’s giving him the sex of his life,” while also acknowledging the “ton of free PR” the relationship has brought him. But make no mistake—Chalamet’s refusal to merge with the Kardashian media machine appears intentional.
“He’s got a very smart head on his shoulders and he’s made this decision for himself,” the source concluded, suggesting that while the heart may be entangled, the brand remains intact.
So, is Timothée Chalamet simply protecting his career—or is this the start of Hollywood’s next great love story with clear boundaries? Either way, it’s clear he wants Kylie without the Kardashian chaos.
