Half the world is totally rooting for Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet’s relationship to thrive, while the other half is bracing for the inevitable tabloid meltdown. When it comes to celeb couples, fans often love or loathe— there’s rarely an in-between!
But when it comes to Timmy’s mom, she’s way more Team Kylie than fans expected.
Some fans might automatically assume Timothée’s mother would disapprove of Kylie for a bunch of reasons, like seeing all of her extra revealing selfies on Instagram. But that just isn’t the case. Here’s what Timmy’s mom actually thinks of the Kylie Cosmetics founder.
Timothée Chalamet’s Mother is a Huge Kylie Jenner Fan
Timothée’s mom, Nicole Flender, just shared her thoughts on her son’s increasingly serious relationship with Kylie. As a reminder, Kylie and Timothée have been going strong since April 2023, and the chemistry keeps heating up.
While Nicole hasn’t spoken at length about Timothée and Kylie, she did offer a surprising glimpse into their budding romance in an interview with Curbed. She kept it short and sweet when she said, “I have to say she’s lovely. She’s very nice to me.”
Is it all that shocking that Nicole would describe Kylie as being lovely and nice? Millions of Kylie’s Instagram followers agree that she’s simply gorgeous. And based on some of the content she’s shared in support of her friends, sisters, and kiddos, she comes across as someone with a decently nice personality.
Nicole didn’t offer any other words regarding the couple, but the little bit she did share speaks volumes. Those stressing that Kylie was struggling to get Timmo’s parents’ seal of approval can stop working.
Things Are Heating Up For Kylie & Timmy
Along with learning that Timothée’s mom is on board with this love story, everything’s thoroughly moving in the right direction for this young couple.
A source opened up to Entertainment Tonight with some details, saying: “[They’re] happy with where things are and focused on spending time together. They don’t put pressure on their relationship, but everything is going really well, and they could see themselves taking things to the next level someday.”
They added, “Timothée’s family is supportive of him and his relationship with Kylie. They appreciate how loving and caring Kylie is. They want him to succeed and be happy in every way, including with the partner he chooses to be with.”

Rumors about Kylie and Timothée getting engaged or pursuing parenthood together are constantly making the rounds, but the couple hasn’t confirmed or denied anything about that stuff.
Kylie already shares two kids (Stormi and Aire) with her ex-boyfriend, Travis Scott. She exhibited maturity at Coachella 2025 Kylie showed real maturity by encouraging seven-year-old Stormi to watch Travis perform with Aunt Kendall. Meanwhile, she slipped away to spend some quality time with Timothée.
Kylie and Travis’s relationship might be over for good, but that doesn’t mean she’ll prevent her children from enjoying Travis’s music – even if she doesn’t stick around to tune in with them!
Kylie’s co-parenting game is strong, but she and Timothée don’t seem in any rush to the next big step. A source told Us Weekly that they’re “in no rush” to take the next steps in their relationship.
Kylie’s 27 and Timothée’s 29, so there’s plenty of time for them to figure out what they want romantically. No rush, no pressure (for now). They’re clearly savoring each other’s company without forcing anything serious. And honestly, that might be the smartest move in Hollywood.
