Timothee Chalamet and Kylie Jenner Engagement ‘Going to Happen’: ‘It’s Right Out There in the Open’

Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet are madly in love and looking to get engaged soon, as a source exclusively reveals to Life & Style there’s been a major power shift between the pair that’s left the reality alum calling the shots like never before as they prepare to squeeze the most they can out of the upcoming proposal. 

“Nobody predicted when Timmy started dating Kylie that it would become this intense, serious, pre-marital relationship, but that’s exactly what has happened and both of them do say they want to spend the rest of their lives together,” the insider explains of the relationship that took many fans by surprise after they were picture spending time together in June 2023, confirming the romance rumors that had been swirling for a few months prior. 

According to the source, the serious tenor of Tim and Kylie’s relationship isn’t a secret to those around them. “They’re not hedging that kind of talk or beating around the bush about it — it’s right out there in the open among their personal circle that an engagement is going to happen, sooner rather than later,” the source adds.

However, for both parties there’s something more to be gained from this romance than just a spouse. Namely, their proposal, engagement, wedding and marriage could take them to even greater heights of fame and recognition, a fact that isn’t lost on Tim, specifically.

“Now, that doesn’t change for one minute the fact that when Timmy proposes, he has to get something big out of it in terms of attention and publicity, but Kylie’s famously high standards will assure that Timmy does it right and doesn’t make a fool of himself, or Kylie,” the source explains. 

Most fans assumed Kylie is the one out for attention, given her history with reality television and momager Kris Jenner’s pleas to bring her beau on their show, The Kardashians, but that’s not to discount Timothée’s PR savvy.

“For both of them, getting engaged has the potential to be one of the biggest social media moments in history if they play their cards right, and Timmy is all about mixing business and pleasure to achieve that magical, viral result that gets him everything he wants and, naturally, makes him even more famous in the process.”

Having a huge, documented proposal and engagement could pretty much be expected for the couple, though. Billionaire Kylie is one of the most successful Kardashian sisters, despite being the youngest, and did it by marketing herself with prowess.

“That may sound a little shallow, but he’s mostly deferring to Kylie and her wishes on this front and he’s not going to blow it and fail to give her the engagement of her wildest dreams,” the insider adds. “He just isn’t capable of fumbling the ball that way and he’s always playing to Kylie’s controlling instincts in order to make her happy.” 

“She’s playing for keeps and he totally recognizes that, as well as how much this relationship can mean to both of them if they finally make things official and permanent.”
