A new report has alleged that Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner‘s relationship is under strain after the actor lost at the 2026 Oscars to Michael B. Jordan in the Best Actor category.

However, it’s also been reported that sources have claimed that the situation has left Jenner feeling “furious.”
Timothée Chalamet blaming Kylie Jenner for Oscar loss, sources suggest
Timothée Chalamet recently lost out in the Best Actor category at the Oscars to Michael B. Jordan for his performance in “Sinners.” Notably, Chalamet’s comments on “ballet and opera” quickly became one of the biggest stories leading up to this year’s Academy Awards. Now, sources have suggested that the loss has impacted Chalamet’s relationship with his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner.
Sources have claimed that Chalamet has privately blamed his relationship with Kylie Jenner and the Kardashian connection for his lack of votes at the Oscars. “Timothée thinks the Kylie relationship hurt his image with older voters,” an insider alleged (via Rob Shuter). “He believes the Kardashian circus cost him the Oscar,” they added.
Sources, however, have also reportedly claimed that Kylie Jenner strongly disagrees with this narrative. She has reportedly been voicing her own frustrations about Timothée Chalamet’s loss at the 2026 Oscars.
“Kylie is furious,” a source revealed, “She’s telling friends the loss had nothing to do with her.” Sources also reportedly added that Chalemet “took the loss very personally.”
This recent development has followed months of stories speculating over tensions within the two stars’ relationship in the build-up to the awards season and the Oscars. It was also recently alleged by insiders that Chalamet’s comments about ballet and opera had caused tensions within their relationship. “Timmy’s ego is bruised,” one source added, “And right now he’s looking for someone to blame.”
