Timothee Chalamet’s meteoric rise looks glamorous, but it’s worrying for those close to him as reports suggest his success is affecting his relationships.
According to a report from Radaronline.comThe 30-year-old actor is “possessed by an inflated ego” and is “accelerating at full speed, chasing every award and every headline”, but it has put a strain on his old friendships.
A source told the newspaper: “The combination of Timmy’s meteoric rise and his relationship with Kylie (Jenner) has fundamentally reshaped his world.
“The close friendships he formed in his early 20s have gradually faded, and there’s a sense that he hasn’t built anything as solid to replace them. For those who knew him before the premieres, the campaigns and the global branding, this version of Timmy feels different: more polished, more strategic, less spontaneous.”
Is it worth distancing himself from his old friends?
“From the outside, it may look like he is accelerating at full speed, chasing every award and every headline,” the insider suggested. “He rides the wave of his own publicity, and sometimes it borders on overdrive.”
“When he and Kylie appear together, it can feel hyper-curated, almost mechanical. What people associated with him miss is the warmth and relatability he once projected.
“Right now, some feel like ambition is taking center stage – to the point where it seems like he’s become possessed by a swelling ego and would trade almost anything for that Oscar moment.”
