Family Rift Grows as Chalamet and Jenner’s Romance Heats Up
Timothée Chalamet’s close bond with his sister, Pauline Chalamet, is reportedly being tested due to his high-profile relationship with Kylie Jenner. According to a report by The U.S. Sun, sources close to the siblings say Pauline “can’t stand” Jenner and disapproves of the relationship, leading to growing distance between the once-tight duo.
Chalamet and Jenner’s Relationship Sparks Family Concerns
Timothée and Kylie, who have been together for over two years, were recently spotted together at Coachella 2025, fueling rumors of a possible engagement. Reports claim the Dune: Part Two actor has already picked out a $300,000 engagement ring and is scouting European wedding destinations.
Despite the couple’s forward momentum, insider accounts suggest Pauline is uneasy. Sources allege she feels Jenner doesn’t align with her brother’s core values and believes the relationship may be “image-driven rather than rooted in real connection.”
Pauline’s Public Critiques Add Fuel to the Fire
Pauline Chalamet, known for her role in HBO Max’s The Sex Lives of College Girls, has long expressed skepticism about wealth and celebrity culture. Some speculate that her previous Instagram posts — including a reshare of Bernie Sanders’ tweet criticizing billionaires — were subtle jabs at Jenner, who is one of the world’s youngest self-made billionaires.
“She thinks Kylie is with him because it looks good,” one insider revealed. “Pauline is very simple; she likes simple things, and Kylie is the total opposite.” Another source added, “She doesn’t recognize the little brother she loves so much, and it’s making her sad.”
Speculation About Wedding Attendance
The once inseparable siblings are reportedly communicating less frequently, and some insiders say that Pauline may even skip a potential wedding. This development is especially striking given Timothée’s past public comments calling his sister his “best friend.”
However, not all signs point to estrangement. The two women appeared cordial at the Coperni afterparty in Paris last October, where they shared a warm hug. They were also seen interacting positively at the 2025 Oscars, hinting that any tension may remain behind closed doors, for now.
