Timothée Chalamet Shares Anxiety About Falling Victim to the Kardashian Curse

Timothée Chalamet is one of Hollywood’s biggest stars, but when it comes to dating Kylie Jenner, he’s reportedly drawing very strict boundaries. Sources tell RadarOnline that despite the couple’s frequent public appearances at events like the BAFTAs and Golden Globes, Chalamet has no plans to appear on the Kardashian family’s reality show.

The insider explained that Chalamet, who recently turned 30, has been with Jenner for about three years. He has publicly acknowledged her in award acceptance speeches, but when it comes to the cameras rolling for The Kardashians, he’s nowhere to be seen.

The source said it’s a firm no for reality TV because Chalamet allegedly thinks he’s above it. This stance has reportedly caused some tension. Chalamet has allegedly insisted that Jenner’s famous sisters and mother, Kris Jenner, stay out of their private life.

Another source claimed that the actor’s caution stems from fear of the so-called Kardashian curse, an internet theory about men who date into the family and struggle with fame or relationships. The insider added that Chalamet is terrified of getting swallowed up by the family’s massive media machine.

As a result, the couple’s relationship is said to operate mostly on his terms. Sources say Jenner’s family is skeptical of him, with some members warning her that he might be using her for publicity.

The insider claimed that Chalamet only engages publicly when it suits him, pointing to coordinated red-carpet appearances and public declarations of love. Even when they do go on dates, he reportedly prefers to see her privately, away from cameras and her family.

Despite these privacy measures, Chalamet remains open to professional advice from Kris Jenner, especially if it helps him navigate awards season. Meanwhile, his career continues to soar. He recently starred in Marty Supreme, directed by Josh Safdie, where he played table tennis legend Marty Reisman.

His performance earned him a Golden Globe for Best Actor and a BAFTA nomination. The film also features Gwyneth Paltrow, Tyler, the Creator, and Fran Drescher, and Chalamet serves as a producer on the project.

Looking ahead, he is preparing for the December 18 release of Dune: Part Three, reprising his role as Paul Atreides alongside Zendaya and Florence Pugh. He is also set to appear in the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown and is working on several indie projects as a producer.

Sources say that while Chalamet’s professional star continues to rise, he is determined to keep his relationship with Jenner private. He reportedly wants their time together to remain a foundation free from the glare of reality TV, proving that even in the midst of Hollywood hype, some boundaries are non-negotiable.

Fans have been following every development closely, debating whether Chalamet’s approach is smart or overly cautious, but one thing is clear: he is committed to keeping his personal life out of the reality TV spotlight.
