After two and a half years together, it appears that Hollywood’s most unexpected couple, Timothee Chalamet and Kylie Jenner, have parted ways, with reports suggesting that Timothee ended the relationship last week.

This development is likely to be warmly received by fans of Timothee, who have openly expressed their disapproval of the acclaimed actor dating a reality TV star often criticized as lacking talent.

No one seemed more delighted by the rumored breakup than Timothee himself, who was seen in surprisingly high spirits last week following the supposed split.

A body language expert has provided insights into the actor’s apparent emotions, telling the Daily Mail that he seems to be in a “celebratory mode,” as if he has “regained his freedom after a long time.”

Judi James explained, “Timothee often embodies the essence of a teenage skater, and since the alleged breakup with the more sophisticated and self-aware Kylie, he looks overwhelmingly happy to let his inner youth shine through both his fashion choices and body language.”

Commenting on his altered demeanor, she noted that his “relaxed gait, marked by a side-to-side sway, indicates a person who has rediscovered their freedom after a considerable period.”

Judi continued: ‘It’s a “bro” look that hints he’s joyful to get back with his crew after a long time spent role-playing a grown-up twenty-nine-year-old sophisticated man just to look good in the selfies with Kylie.’ 

She added that the actor now has a ‘much more openly sociable look that is in contrast to some of his moodier signals’.

Referencing Timothee and Kylie’s last public outing together at a baseball game last month, Judi continued: ‘In recent photos of the pair together, there was an even more emphatic vibe of a parental-style dynamic.  

‘Timothee was seen on his feet clapping and cheering on his beloved Yankees with a determinedly spontaneous and immersive approach while Kylie remained in her seat wearing a hood and the thin polite smile of an earplug-wearing parent at a K-pop concert.

‘The term “wet blanket” came to mind when these photos were released and Timothee’s current solo outings here suggest he’s almost in celebratory mode to have an unrestricted hall pass to revisit his teenage years.

‘It always tended to be Kylie pushing the “romance” body language narrative with Timothee while he often appeared more laidback and untroubled by any need to perform for the cameras. 

‘As a possible singleton he appears to have found his narrative and it looks all about having fun without worrying about his A-list image.’

Timothee’s upbeat outing also coincides with the promo tour for his new movie, Marty Supreme, which has seen him at the centre of Oscars buzz for the second year in a row. 

With his career trajectory looking stronger than ever, it appears Timothee has managed the rare feat of avoiding the so-called Kardashian curse. 

This has been referenced by many fans over the years, with the theory that every man who gets romantically involved with one of the Kardashian-Jenner sisters suffers a fall from grace.

The phenomenon is so ingrained in public culture that many blamed Timothee’s Oscar loss this year on the curse. 

He had been a hot favourite to take home the gong after his Screen Actors Guild Awards win for playing Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown. 

However, he narrowly missed out on the Best Actor gong after it went to Adrien Brody for the Brutalist. 

He made no secret that he was upset by the loss, having previously declared he was on a mission to be declared ‘one of the greats’ in the acting industry. 

Timothee, who also lost the Best Actor Oscar in 2018 when he was nominated for Call Me by Your Name, will now be hoping to make it third time lucky.  

Critics have suggested he’ll be up for another Academy Award for his portrayal as table tennis star Marty Mauser in the upcoming sports drama Marty Supreme.

Set in 1950s New York, the film is loosely based on the real-life story of Marty Reisman, whose sheer determination takes him to the top of the game.

Timothee has also just finished production on the critically acclaimed film series, Dune: Part Three, while he’s set to reunite with A Complete Unknown director James Mangold on High-Side, a motocross heist film.

Timothee’s post-Kardashian fate varies drastically from the other men who have dated the famous siblings. 

Kylie previously explained the theory in an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, saying: ‘The Kardashian curse is every male figure that comes and dates a Kardashian. 

‘Their life kind of just goes downhill after that.’ 

However, she insisted that it’s not the family that brings bad luck, but rather their level of celebrity status that is difficult to handle.

‘That’s exactly what it is. They come and can’t handle it,’ she said.

And now that Timothee may no longer be linked to a Kardashian, there can be no ‘curse’ to blame, if things don’t go his way. 

The Daily Mail reported on Tuesday that he had parted ways with the beauty business owner, with a source stating he ‘broke up with Kylie,’ adding, ‘this has happened before – but she talked him into getting back together. She is crazy about him so that could well happen again.’

A second source told the Daily Mail: ‘There is trouble in paradise, but they aren’t completely over.’

They added: ‘He is filming quite a bit, and she feels that she has to chase him. She is putting in the work more than him.’ 

While Timothee may have escaped unscathed, Kylie has been accused of ‘cursing’ her ex Travis Scott, 34, whom she dated from 2017 to 2022. 

The couple have daughter Stormi, seven, and son Aire, three, together. 

In 2021, during the musician’s Astroworld Festival, ten attendees died and more were injured after a crowd rushed the stage.

The victims – who were killed by compressive asphyxiation – included a ten-year-old boy.

Though the tragic event had nothing to do with Kylie, many pointed that the rapper appeared to be having major bad luck since their relationship began. 

At the time of their union, Travis boldly proclaimed that he wasn’t worried about the Kardashian curse in an interview with GQ.

‘I don’t even be looking at (expletive). I don’t be looking at (expletive). Kylie actually likes me for me,’ he said. 

‘I’m on my own island. So hey, come over there to Astroworld. I’m not into all the other (expletive). I don’t get involved. I’m over here. Kylie is different.’

Perhaps the most famous ‘victim’ of the curse, is Kim Kardashian’s ex-husband Kanye West. 

The pair, who split in 2021 after seven years of marriage, share four children: North, 12; Saint, nine; Chicago, seven; and Psalm, six.

During their marriage, the musician was hospitalised for his first mental breakdown.

Kanye eventually revealed he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, although later claimed he was misdiagnosed.   

His mental health issues plagued the marriage and he continued to be engulfed by scandals following his divorce. 

The rapper has since been ‘cancelled’ for his anti-Semitic rants that have seen him reportedly lose $1.6billion of his net worth.

Following her split from Kanye, Kim began dating SNL comedian Pete Davidson, 32.

The duo were together for nine months but faced a difficult time as Kim’s ex continuously targeted the comic online. 

With derisive Instagram posts and bizarre allusions to Pete in his music video, Pete became the victim of intense online harassment.

The negative energy impacted his mental health, and he ended up undergoing trauma therapy to deal with it.

Later a source told Radar Online that Pete – who checked into rehab amid a battle with Borderline Personality Disorder and PTSD – felt as though he was hit by the Kardashian curse.

‘The more he reflects on what he went through with Kim the more Pete wants to pinch himself and ask what the hell he was thinking,’ they revealed. 

‘His swagger was gone and he seriously worried he’d become a long-term victim of the Kardashian curse.’

Kris Humphries, 40, was only married to Kim for 72 days, but fans believe his luck also turned for the worse following the romance.

His reputation as a basketball player was overshadowed by the short-lived marriage and his appearances on the reality series.

He spoke about his declining reputation in an essay for The Players’ Tribune, and recalled being booed at one of his games.

‘I thought to myself, “Why exactly are they booing me, though? Is it just because I’m That Guy from TV? Do they think I was trying to be famous? Is it because they think I disrespected the game of basketball?”

‘The last one killed me, because all I’ve ever wanted to be known for was basketball.’

Kim dated NFL star Reggie Bush, 40, for three years, starting in 2007, with the star making regular appearances on Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

At the time, he was considered a major athletic talent in football; however, following their split, he appeared to lose his momentum.

He was mercilessly labelled ‘the biggest over hyped flop ever in professional football’ and retired shortly after.

Though Kim’s career appeared to flourish following the release of her sex tape with then-boyfriend Ray J, 44, the opposite seemed to happen in his life.

Famously known for hit singles like One Wish and Sexy Can I, after the release of the NSFW homemade movie, Ray J became known simply as Kim’s sex tape partner.

Kim’s sister Khloe Kardashian has also been known for spreading the ‘curse’, when she married basketball player Lamar Odom in 2009, after dating for just a month.

The former pair’s romance was documented on Keeping Up With the Kardashians spinoff, Khloé & Lamar.

Unfortunately, their fairytale wasn’t meant to be, and Khloe filed for divorce from Lamar in 2013, after he cheated on her, suffered a public breakdown, and became addicted to drugs.

They did not finalize their divorce until 2016 as Lamar suffered an almost fatal overdose in a Nevada brothel in 2015.

Her next high-profile relationship was with basketball star Tristan Thompson, 34, and it was also marred by infidelity, with the NBA player caught cheating on the reality star multiple times. 

Throughout his relationship with Khloe, Tristan’s NBA team, the Cleveland Cavaliers, were performing poorly, with many fans speculating the Kardashian curse was to blame.

Others pointed that Tristan went from being a starting man on a championship team to bouncing around the league with different teams.

The exes have remained in each other’s lives to coparent True, seven, and Tatum, three. 

Kourtney Kardashian was said to have passed the ‘curse’ onto Scott Disick, 42, who she dated on and off between 2006 and 2015. 

Scott – who shares Mason, 16, Penelope, 13, and Reign, 11, with the eldest Kardashian sister – has struggled with addiction and checked into a number of rehabs over the years. 

He checked into rehab once more to ‘work on past traumas’ in 2020, but left a few days later after an employee at the facility leaked his information. 

During one episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians a psychic told Scott that the obstacles in his life made it evident that he was ‘cursed’, further adding fire to the online theory. 

Kendall Jenner has also been accused of passing on the ‘curse’ when she dated basketball player Devin Booker, 28, between 2020 and 2022. 

Fans believed his relationship with Kendall was to blame for his poor performance in the NBA Finals in 2021 and 2022 with The Phoenix Suns.

The Kardashian-Jenners have long hit back at rumours they are to blame for the troubles in their romantic partners’ lives. 

Just last month Kim expressed her annoyance at the viral term, saying: ‘I think it’s really unfair to say that women are the problem when it comes to issues that our exes might be dealing with… 

‘There’s such a fixation on what happened to the men as if there’s no accountability on their part. Like it has to be “you’re all so powerful that you did this to all these men and they have no hand in their life and they have no autonomy.”

‘Someone that doesn’t take accountability is my biggest pet peeve and my biggest red flag.’
