The Allegations: A "Years-Long" Secret Romance

The controversy erupted earlier this week when Sarah Tena, 32, shared her account of a purported relationship with Chalamet with the Daily Mail. Tena claimed their interaction began in 2020 after she messaged the actor on Instagram following his performance in The King. According to Tena, the two shared a periodic romance that lasted until January 2023, involving dates at a Santa Monica beachfront home and visits to New York. She alleged the connection "fizzled out" just weeks before Chalamet was first spotted with Kylie Jenner at a Paris fashion show.

Brody Jenner Speaks Out: "People Have Lives"

Responding to the media firestorm, Brody Jenner took to social media to shut down the narrative. Commenting on a Page Six Instagram post, Brody urged the public to "leave the happy couple alone," adding, "People have lives before they meet their person." He further dismissed Tena’s claims as a play for notoriety, stating, "This girl is clearly doing this for attention, and everyone can see right through it."

The Kylie & Timothée Timeline: From Secretive to "Basically Married"

Despite the noise from the past, Chalamet and Jenner appear more settled than ever. After first being linked in early 2023, the pair famously made their red carpet debut in May 2025. By January 2026, Chalamet used his Best Actor acceptance speech at the Critics Choice Awards to publicly declare his love for Kylie for the first time. Recent reports suggest the couple has moved in together, with sources close to the family describing them as "inseparable" and "basically married."
