TIMOTHEE Chalamet is focusing all his energy on Kylie Jenner while the Hollywood actors’ strike has brought his career to a halt, The U.S. Sun has been told. 

The young couple were spotted all over each other again this weekend after first going public with their relationship at the start of last week.

Dune star Timothee, 27, and cosmetics mogul Kylie, 26, were seen together at a New York Fashion Week dinner on Saturday night. 

Then they were pictured packing on the PDA at the men’s final of the U.S. Open tennis championship won by Serb player Novak Djokovic on Sunday.

It followed their first public outing as a couple at a Beyoncé concert in Los Angeles on Monday last week, which confirmed months of rumors that they were dating.

A Hollywood insider who has had extensive dealings with the movie star told The U.S. Sun that the ongoing actors’ strike has allowed him to give his undivided attention to Kylie.

The source said: “The strikes have forced him to not work and actually have a personal life and a social life. 

“This relationship has turned his world upside down, and he’s having the time of his life.”

The actors’ strike which has brought Hollywood productions to a standstill began on July 14 this year. 

It came after Hollywood screenwriters had already walked out on May 2. 

Both guilds are asking for better pay and safeguards against the use of AI technology in the movie and TV industries. 

The strikes have delayed the release of the Timothee-led Dune sequel from November to March next year. 

It could also affect his upcoming movie Wonka, a prequel to the much-loved Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory which is currently still due for release on December 15.

‘UNWAVERING COMMITMENT’

The U.S. Sun’s insider explained that Timothee’s unwavering commitment to maintaining his status as an in-demand leading man hasn’t been shaken at all by his romance with Kylie

But the actor “has a healthy streak of paranoia” about how fleeting stardom can be, the source shared.

His tendency to be cautious has only increased after witnessing longtime pal, and fellow actor, Ansel Elgort suffer extreme highs and lows in a similarly short period of time, according to the source. 

Baby Driver star Ansel – who went to school with Timothee in New York – faced allegations in 2020 of sexually assaulting a 17-year-old girl in 2014 when he was 20.

He has denied the claims and described the relationship as “entirely consensual”. 

The incident is alleged to have taken place in New York, where the age of consent is 17.

The U.S. Sun previously reported that Timothee is unlikely to feature alongside Kylie on Hulu show The Kardashians. 

A source said: “I don’t think he’s going to pop up on the reality show the way some of the other Kardashian suitors have, and I don’t think Kylie has any expectation that he would. 

“It’s not how he rolls.”

PAST ROMANCES

The U.S. Sun also reported that Timothee has “long-term intentions” with Kylie.

Timothee has previously been linked to Madonna’s daughter Lourdes Leon and Johnny Depp’s daughter Lily-Rose Depp. 

Meanwhile, Kylie has a long history of dating men in the entertainment industry. 

She went out with rapper Tyga before getting with her baby daddy Travis Scott, who is also a rap star. 

The pair – who have been on and off for years – had daughter Stormi in February 2021 and son Aire in February 2022 before it was announced they had split again in January this year.
