Brody Jenner is showing unwavering support for his younger sister, Kylie Jenner, and her relationship with actor Timothée Chalamet, defending them against a wave of online gossip.
The 42-year-old spoke out after reports that highlighted an interview with Sarah Tena, a former adult content model who claimed she had a secret romance with Chalamet before he began dating Kylie.

“We all have a tremendous amount of love for each other, even Kendall and Kylie,” he explained on The Viall Files in January 2025. “If Kylie or Kendall calls me right now, I would walk out of this room and pick up the phone and I'd be there for them.”

Rumors resurfaced after Sarah Tena, 32, alleged a previous relationship with Chalamet. Speaking to the Daily Mail, Tena recalled meeting him in Santa Monica in January 2020 after messaging him on Instagram following his performance in Netflix’s 'The King.'
She described a “surreal” connection, noting shared interests and emotional closeness. “We just clicked,” she said. “It also turned into a friendship… From the Timothée I know, he’s genuine. He’s funny… The friendship kept us going so long… Our personalities are similar.”

Their relationship ended when Chalamet’s romance with Kylie emerged publicly in 2023, after he was photographed with Jenner during Paris Fashion Week.
The Chalamet-Jenner Romance:
Kylie Jenner, 28, and Timothée Chalamet, 30, began their relationship in 2023, keeping much of it under wraps until recently. During his Critics Choice Awards acceptance speech in January, the 'Marty Supreme' actor said, “Lastly, I'll just say thank you to my partner of three years. Thank you for our foundation. I love you. I couldn't do this without you.”

Their closeness was unmistakable, even in the wake of Chalamet’s high-profile loss in the Best Actor category to Michael B. Jordan for 'Sinners.' During the 2026 awards season, Kylie has been a constant presence at major events, including the Golden Globes, BAFTAs, and Oscars.
