Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet are still going strong, but their relationship is facing outside pressure that’s reportedly taking a toll.
A source tells In Touch that Jenner, 29, has been left extremely rattled by ongoing speculation about her romance with the actor.
“Kylie normally has a pretty thick skin, but not when it comes to her relationship with Timmy,” the source says. “She’s so attached to him, the thought of losing him sends her into a total panic so any sort of threat to their relationship is magnified times a hundred.”
According to the source, the constant noise surrounding the couple has made things increasingly difficult for Jenner.
“It’s very tough to navigate because there seems to be something to get her anxiety going every other day,” the source continues. “She says it feels like there’s a constant stream of people trying to tear them apart.”
The concerns aren’t just coming from online chatter, either.
“And it’s not only random strangers on the internet,” the source explains. “There are people in his circle as well as his family who clearly don’t think she’s the right fit for him and that’s incredibly triggering for Kylie because she knows they’d all be happy to set him up with someone else.”

During the Oscars on March 15, cameras caught what appeared to be an awkward moment between Jenner and Chalamet’s sister Pauline.
The source adds that past relationships are also adding to the tension.
“Then there are all the exes that pop out of the woodwork,” the source says, pointing to a recent claim from a woman alleging she was involved with Chalamet, 30, for years before his relationship with Jenner.
“This latest woman, who’s claiming that she was hooking-up with Timmy for three years before he and Kylie got together, has set off Kylie’s alarm bells,” the source adds.
However, the situation has reportedly become even more frustrating due to Chalamet’s response.
“But when she tries to grill him for details he won’t even go there,” the source claims. “He says he doesn’t want to dignify this gossip with his energy, which just leaves Kylie even more upset and anxious.”
Jenner and Chalamet first began dating in 2023, but their relationship has seemingly had its ups and downs.

As In Touch previously reported, last week a former adult entertainment star claimed to the Daily Mail that she had been “blindsided” by Chalamet’s relationship with the Kardashians star because she was dating him at the time.
