Kylie Jenner has subtly responded to rumors of a breakup with Timothée Chalamet by liking his recent Instagram posts, signaling that their relationship remains intact. This move comes hours after reports suggested the couple had split, but multiple sources confirm they are still together and doing well.
Kylie Jenner, the entrepreneur and media personality, appeared to shut down speculation about her relationship status with actor Timothée Chalamet through a simple social media gesture. On Tuesday, she “liked” an Instagram video posted by Chalamet featuring a trailer for his upcoming film “Marty Supreme,” just hours after the Daily Mail published a report claiming the couple had broken up. The actor had captioned the post “MARTY SUUUUUUUUUPREME,” and Jenner’s like was seen as a public statement of support amid the swirling rumors.
The breakup rumors began when sources told the Daily Mail that there was “trouble in paradise” and that Chalamet had “broken up with Kylie.” One insider suggested this wasn’t the first time and that Jenner might persuade him to reconcile, as she is “crazy about him.” However, the timing of Jenner’s Instagram activity quickly countered these claims, with her likes interpreted as an affirmation of their connection. A second source to the Daily Mail claimed their relationship isn’t “completely over,” but that Jenner feels she has to “chase him” due to his busy filming schedule.
Contradicting the breakup narrative, multiple sources close to the couple spoke to People magazine, asserting that Jenner and Chalamet are still together and “great.” One source explained that Chalamet’s absence from recent events, such as Kris Jenner’s 70th birthday party, is due to his filming commitments for “Dune: Part Three” in Europe, not relationship issues. They emphasized that the pair make an effort to see each other every few weeks and are planning to spend time together during the upcoming holidays. “He has a few days off for the holidays so they’re making plans,” the insider said, highlighting their proactive approach to maintaining their bond.
A second source from People highlighted the strength of their relationship, noting that Chalamet frequently talks about Jenner while on set and that she has visited him during filming in New York City and London. “They’re really in love,” the insider said, dispelling any doubts about their commitment. This aligns with Jenner’s action of liking not just one, but two of Chalamet’s recent Instagram posts, as reported by ELLE, further reinforcing their stable relationship. The couple has been navigating long-distance due to Chalamet’s work, but they remain connected through regular communication and visits.
This isn’t the first time Jenner and Chalamet have faced breakup rumors; similar speculation arose in the summer of 2025 when they hadn’t been seen together for weeks. At that time, they quashed the rumors by being spotted on a coffee date in Budapest, and sources attributed their distance to Chalamet’s “grueling” filming schedule. They have been dating since 2023 and have generally kept their relationship private, which often fuels public curiosity and misinformation. Past instances show a pattern where rumors emerge during periods of limited public appearances, only to be debunked by their subtle actions or insider confirmations.
Both Jenner and Chalamet have expressed a preference for keeping their personal lives out of the spotlight. In a previous interview with ELLE, Jenner stated that she finds it important to “keep things to yourself” and that outside opinions can be challenging. Similarly, Chalamet declined to discuss Jenner in a recent Vogue interview, saying he has “nothing to say” on the matter, underscoring their shared desire for privacy amidst constant media attention. This approach contrasts with the very public nature of their careers but helps them maintain a sense of normalcy and protect their relationship from undue scrutiny.
The recent social media move by Jenner serves as a subtle yet effective way to address rumors without directly engaging with the press, a tactic that aligns with their low-key approach to their relationship. As Chalamet continues his busy filming schedule for projects like “Dune: Part Three” and “Marty Supreme,” and Jenner balances her business ventures, including Khy, and motherhood to her two children with ex Travis Scott, the couple appears to be navigating the challenges of a high-profile romance with resilience. Fans and followers can likely expect more discreet signals of their status in the future, rather than public declarations, as they prioritize their privacy and personal happiness over external validation.
