Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet‘s relationship is the talk of the town, primarily because the couple managed to grab the right audience at the right time. From their award show appearances to their recent red carpet debut, the pair has offered fans a lot. But, they have also maintained the suspense by not labeling their connection yet. A few PR experts exclusively gave their insights on the subject, claiming that their relationship is “PR perfection.”

Experts believe Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet’s relationship is mysterious

Since Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet began dating in 2023, the couple has guarded their relationship quite a bit. In 2025, the two made several official appearances together, including their red carpet debut at the 70th David Di Donatello Awards in May. Two PR experts spoke to Business Insider and examined the relationship and the PR moves behind it.

Evan Nierman, CEO of PR firm Red Banyan, shared insight into why netizens may find it hard to believe Jenner and Chalamet’s relationship. The expert explained that the two stars’ different brand identities and personas might contribute to the skepticism of their pairing. Nierman continued, “The kind of brooding, superserious, superauthentic actor clashes with the Kardashian model,” leading to people finding it difficult to accept them as a couple.

Mike Fahey, the founder and CEO of the PR agency Fahey Communications, expressed how PR can play a significant role in what people hear about Hollywood. The unveiling of Jenner and Chalamet’s relationship in the media was slow and steady. Although the couple made appearances together at the Golden Globes or Coachella this year, nothing major happened until their red carpet debut.

However, Nierman considered this a great PR move where “slow strategic leaks that are then followed by a red carpet debut” would get people talking. Fahey further stated how these strategic PR moves in Jenner and Chalamet’s relationship “created this media firestorm while doing very little.”

Previously, the couple’s red carpet debut in Rome created a viral moment among fans and netizens. It appears as though they still have a few major moves to go, including a social media debut or the actor’s appearance in the Hulu reality show “The Kardashians.” Nierman opined that the couple’s relationship has “been played to perfection.” The expert concluded, “It keeps us guessing. It keeps us talking, and that’s entirely the point.”
