Timothée Chalamet and Sister Allegedly Talk About Kylie Jenner According to Lip Reader

Timothée Chalamet was in the spotlight at the 98th Academy Awards on Sunday, March 15. Every move of the actor in the front row was closely watched by cameras, but one moment with his sister, Pauline Chalamet, quickly went viral.

Lip-reading expert Nicola Hickling told The Mirror that the brief exchange between the siblings may have involved Timothée’s partner, Kylie Jenner. During the broadcast, Pauline was seen leaning toward her brother for a quick chat before they posed for a photo together.

Hickling claims Timothée whispered to his sister, “Could you go easy on her? I want you to go easy on her.” Pauline reportedly nodded and replied, “Okay,” before returning to her seat.

Some viewers remain skeptical of the lip-reading analysis, but the moment has sparked renewed discussion about the relationship between Jenner and Pauline. Rumors of tension first surfaced in 2025 when Pauline posted on social media about billionaire wealth, which some fans interpreted as a subtle jab at Jenner.

Despite the speculation, Jenner and Pauline seemed friendly during the Oscars. Jenner greeted Pauline warmly and complimented her outfit, showing that any potential tension is far from public.

Sources close to the couple say Jenner’s family has welcomed Chalamet, and he even spends time with her kids when they are in L.A. According to insiders, the relationship has brought Jenner a lot of happiness.

Chalamet has also had a busy year professionally. He starred in Marty Supreme, a sports drama directed by Josh Safdie, playing a professional table tennis player. His performance earned him Best Actor wins at the Golden Globes and Critics’ Choice Awards and has been called one of his best roles yet. The film also stars Gwyneth Paltrow and Tyler, the Creator.

Looking ahead, Chalamet has several major projects lined up. He will start a global press tour for Dune: Part Three, the final installment of Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi trilogy, scheduled for release on December 18. He is also set to appear in a sequel to the 2023 hit Wonka.

In addition, Chalamet is working on a high-stakes thriller called High Side with director James Mangold. In the film, he plays a former motorcycle racer pulled into a dangerous heist world by his estranged brother.

Between a high-profile romance and a busy work schedule, Chalamet continues to dominate the conversation in Hollywood. Fans and industry insiders alike are keeping a close eye on both his career and his personal life.
