Khloé Kardashian Drops Subtle Timothée Chalamet Reference

Khloé Kardashian made a clever remark involving the Timothée Chalamet Kardashian reference during the November 27 episode of the family’s Hulu series, drawing attention after months of speculation surrounding Kylie Jenner’s relationship with the Oscar-nominated actor. The Kardashians had another headline moment when Khloé commented on Chalamet’s status as a diehard Knicks fan, providing a rare acknowledgment of the much-discussed couple.

Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet’s Relationship Timeline

Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet began dating in the spring of 2023, but both have kept details of their romance largely private. Over the past two-and-a-half years, the couple have avoided discussing their relationship publicly, and Chalamet’s presence has rarely been mentioned directly on The Kardashians. This makes Khloé Kardashian’s subtle nod on air especially notable, as it marks one of the few times Chalamet has been referenced on the family’s flagship reality show.

Khloé’s Body Swap Question Leads to Chalamet Connection

During the recent episode, Khloé was asked which of her four sisters she would choose to swap lives with. Answering the question, she pointed to her youngest sister, Kylie Jenner, stating her reasons for choosing Kylie involved admiration for her lifestyle and status. Khloé explained that Jenner’s life appeared especially enticing, mentioning friends, animals, and an air of fairy tale living. With references ranging from Disney’s Snow White to Pretty Woman, Khloé described Kylie’s persona and lifestyle in vivid terms.

Khloé Kardashian observed, adding further that Kylie is

Taking the humor further, she quipped,

“Also, I would love to know what those boobs feel like,”

offering another candid moment in the segment. Turning to the couple’s high-profile courtside appearances at NBA games, particularly involving the New York Knicks, Khloé made a clear Chalamet reference by noting,

“We’re not dating basketball players—we’re going to the games courtside, baby,”

recognizing the actor’s well-known fandom for the team and Jenner’s visible courtside presence beside him.

Private but Present: The Couple’s Public Moments

While Kylie Jenner has avoided speaking openly about her relationship with Timothée Chalamet, subtle clues have been dropped on the show and in public. Earlier in the year, the couple attended the Golden Globes together, providing more hints for fans following their romance. Jenner has also incorporated Timothée’s Knicks fandom into lighthearted social media posts, emphasizing how basketball now features in her personal life. On one occasion, Jenner even reposted a humorous Sex and the City TikTok about how the Knicks’ performance could influence romantic moments, with references to Sarah Jessica Parker’s and Kim Cattrall’s iconic characters.

Chalamet’s Approach to Fame and Romance

While insiders describe the couple as “really in love,” both Jenner and Chalamet have refrained from offering details about their relationship. This reserved approach also appeared in Chalamet’s own words during a recent Vogue cover story interview, as he addressed his choice to shield personal news from public view. When asked about not discussing the romance, Chalamet stated,

“I don’t say that with any fear, I just don’t have anything to say.”

Looking Ahead for Jenner and Chalamet

The Timothée Chalamet Kardashian reference in the latest episode helps to confirm the increasingly public nature of the couple’s presence within the Kardashian-Jenner circle. As they maintain a delicate balance between privacy and public life, any future appearance or direct involvement on The Kardashians is likely to draw considerable attention from fans, tabloids, and followers of both families. With Chalamet’s film commitments and Jenner’s ongoing visibility in entertainment, interest in their evolving relationship continues to grow, and observers remain eager for any further on-screen or social media hints about their story.
