Timothée Chalamet’s Sister Pauline Criticizes Billionaires, Sparking Kylie Jenner Speculation

LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Pauline Chalamet, sister of actor Timothée Chalamet, has sparked speculation after reposting social media messages critical of billionaires, including those who own private jets. The posts have raised eyebrows given her brother’s relationship with Kylie Jenner, one of the world’s most prominent billionaires.

Last year, Pauline, 32, reshared a tweet by nonprofit organization Move On, originally posted by Democratic politician Melanie D’Arrigo. The tweet read, ‘If your job requires a college degree, you should be able to write off your student loan payments as a business expense the way CEOs write off their private jets and yachts for their jobs which require neither.’ The post was widely interpreted as a veiled critique of Jenner, who owns a private jet and is CEO of Kylie Cosmetics.

More recently, Pauline reposted a scathing tweet by Senator Bernie Sanders about billionaires. Alongside the post, she wrote, ‘Our system is so flawed that it allows billionaires to exist and accrue so much money and BARELY pay (and sometimes NOT PAY) ANY ANY ANY TAXES. This should not be possible. Billionaires do not need to exist.’ The post has since been deleted.

Kylie Jenner, 27, was confirmed as a billionaire by Forbes in 2019. She owns a private jet dubbed ‘Kylie Air’ and has faced criticism for her carbon emissions. While it is unclear if Jenner writes off her private jet as a business expense, her relationship with Timothée Chalamet has drawn significant public attention.

Despite the apparent criticism, Pauline and Jenner have been seen on friendly terms. Last October, the two shared a warm hug at the Coperni afterparty in Paris. Timothée and Jenner were last spotted together in Paris on January 16, during the promotional campaign for his new film, ‘A Complete Unknown.’

The couple’s relationship began in early 2023, when they reportedly met at a Jean-Paul Gaultier fashion show. Since then, they have been seen together at high-profile events, including Beyoncé’s Los Angeles concert and the US Open. Jenner, who shares two children with ex-boyfriend Travis Scott, has reportedly introduced Timothée to her family, including during a Christmas celebration last year.

Pauline, an actress known for her role in ‘The Sex Lives of College Girls,’ has not publicly commented on the speculation surrounding her posts. However, her outspoken views on wealth inequality have resonated with many fans, who have interpreted her messages as a critique of Jenner’s billionaire status.
