Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet are still very much a couple, contrary to recent reports suggesting they had ended their relationship. Despite not being seen together in public recently, sources close to the couple have assured TMZ that they are still together and the breakup rumors are false. The couple has been known to keep their relationship private, and since reports of their dating began circulating in early April, they have managed to keep most details of their romance away from the public eye. While there might not have been recent public appearances together, insiders have made it clear that everything is fine between them. TMZ's sources advised fans to be cautious about believing everything they read and clarified that Kylie and Timothée are indeed still a pair.

Before her relationship with Timothée Chalamet, Kylie Jenner was in an on-again, off-again romance with Travis Scott. The couple, who share two children, Stormi and Aire, started dating in 2017. After a brief split in October 2019, they reconciled in May 2021. In February 2022, Kylie and Travis welcomed their second child, Aire.
