LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner's relationship has been relatively private but has grown steadily since early 2023. The actor publicly confirmed the 'three years' milestone in his acceptance speeches at the 2026 Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards.

However, in mid-February, a rumor circulated online claiming that Timothée Chalamet & Kylie Jenner are reportedly breaking up after three years. But is there any truth to this? Let us find out below.

Claim: Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner are reportedly breaking up 

An X post claimed on Thursday, February 19, "Timothée Chalamet & Kylie Jenner are reportedly breaking up after 3 years."

The post garnered more than 2 million views, and more than 13,000 users reacted to the X post. The post also had a picture of Jenner and Chalamet together.



The couple was first linked in January 2023 when they were spotted interacting at the Jean Paul Gaultier show during Paris Fashion Week. A viral clip showed them chatting and crossing paths, which sparked initial interest.

In April 2023, dating rumors further ignited after Kylie's car was spotted multiple times at Timothée's Beverly Hills home. Some insiders also describe them as 'hanging out and getting to know each other' casually, following Jenner's split from Travis Scott

The couple was then seen together during several functions, confirming that the two were dating.

Fact Check: False, no credible evidence to back the claim

The claim made in the viral post is false, as there is no credible evidence to prove that Timothée Chalamet & Kylie Jenner are breaking up.

Several insiders have repeatedly dismissed split and affair rumors and emphasized that the couple is 'really in love' and trusts each other implicitly.

Moreover, the social media post seems to be unsubstantiated gossip or satire, amplified on social media platform X, but not supported by credible reporting.

Furthermore, the claim originated from @HoopsCrave, an X page that mimics pop culture accounts like @PopCrave but labels itself as a parody. Similar unverified breakup claims have circulated since late 2025, tied to misinterpreted events.

The couple was recently photographed at Flour Pizzeria & Cafe in LA. This aligns with earlier reports, where insiders noted they've been 'basically living together' in LA for over a year.

Breakup rumors are common for the couple due to their privacy. However, no mainstream sources reported an actual split. As of February 20, 2026, all indications pointed towards them remaining committed.
