Gwyneth Paltrow admits she was clueless about Timothée Chalamet's romance with Kylie Jenner until their film collaboration

Gwyneth Paltrow confessed that she was unaware of Timothée Chalamet’s romantic relationships prior to their collaboration on the film Marty Supreme.

“Our initial encounter was during the costume fitting. I was inquiring about him, seeking to learn more about his background,” the 53-year-old Paltrow shared in a conversation with British Vogue on Wednesday, October 15, disclosing the moment she discovered the relationship between Chalamet, 29, and his partner, Kylie Jenner.

“People often tease me for being out of touch. I asked, ‘Are you currently in a relationship?’ And he responded, ‘Yes, I am,’” she recounted. “He then disclosed that his partner had children, and I expressed, ‘How wonderful. I genuinely appreciate hearing that from a young man such as yourself.’” (Jenner is mother to daughter Stormi, 7, and son Aire, 3, whom she shares with former partner Travis Scott.)

Paltrow elaborated, “It’s comprehensible for a 45-year-old father to date a woman with children, but it’s a distinctive decision to choose a young woman who is already a mother of two. I commend that. I consider it somewhat unconventional. However, my main point is that I wasn't aware it was Kylie Jenner …”
