Kylie Jenner refuses to talk about Timothée Chalamet in new interview amid split speculation
The Khy founder refused to acknowledge whether her new “clean girl” era — consisting of shorter nails, less makeup and neutral fits — was influenced by the “Dune” actor during her New York Times profile published Thursday.
“I don’t know how I feel about that,” she said while fidgeting with her notes. “I just don’t want to talk about personal things.”

Jenner, 26, further said she hasn’t paid attention to fan speculation on social media about Chalamet’s influence on her attire as she solely focuses on feedback pertaining to her businesses.
In recent years, the “Kardashians” star has switched up her look as she went from being an edgy teenager to mom of two.
As a teen hit on Tumblr, she identified herself as King Kylie in 2010 to fit her persona of styling green, turquoise and pink wigs paired with edgy fits.

Jenner held onto the angsty persona for years, and in 2015 she even changed her social media handle to @kingkylie.
Despite her evolving sense of fashion, the reality star told WSJ magazine last year that King Kylie is “who I am at my core.”
In January, she seemingly felt nostalgic for her old looks as she posed in a pink wig and shared the photo on social media, leaving fans in a frenzy.

More recently, Jenner’s social media activity sparked split rumors. After sharing a TikTok of her morning routine — without Chalamet, 28, anywhere in sight — fans took to Reddit to say her new video was possibly a “soft launch” of her alleged breakup with the actor.
“Soft launch breakup coming???” one person asked alongside a screenshot of an article about Jenner’s TikTok, while another wrote, “Yes and talking about how she’s ‘thriving’ all on her own like she doesn’t need a man.”
Jenner and Chalamet, who first sparked romance rumors last spring, haven’t been spotted together since the 2024 Golden Globes on Jan. 7.
Prior to Chalamet, Jenner was romantically linked to ex-boyfriend, Travis Scott, with whom she shares six-year-old daughter, Stormi, and two-year-old son, Aire.
