In an interview with The Daily Mail, Serah Tena claimed that she was shocked when she learned of Timothee and Kylie Jenner's relationship, since she thought it was originally a PR stunt. 

Her comments were shared by Page Six on social media, prompting a reply from Brody Jenner. "Oh god. Just leave the happy couple alone," he wrote. 

"People have lives before they meet their person. This girl is clearly doing this for attention, and everyone can see right through it."

Brody Jenner is the son of Caitlyn Jenner and Linda Thompson, and is Kylie and Kendall Jenner's older brother. He's spoken about his relationship to the Kardashians, revealing that while he loves all of them, they don't see each other often. 

"We didn't grow up in the same household, so it's not like it's any different," he said on the podcast The Viall Files. "I don't get to see them, but when we do see each other, it's like no time has passed."

In her interview, Tena revealed that she and Chalamet began talking in 2020, after she saw his performance in "The King" and reached out to him online. The two proceeded to hang out a couple of times and formed a relationship, as described by Tena. 

“I was in love with Timothée, yeah,” she said. “I had finally expressed how I felt, and I let him know that I had feelings for him, and he did too. We both did."

Tena also shared her shock at Chalamet's relationship with Jenner, initially thinking that it was a PR stunt. “I see these things about him dating Kylie Jenner, and I was very confused about that,” she said. “At first, I thought it was fake news, and then I was like, maybe it’s a PR thing. But now it looks like maybe they are together. I don’t know… It doesn’t add up.”
