Why did Travis Scott and Kylie Jenner split? History explored as socialite spotted with Timothée Chalamet

Travis Scott is firmly back in the win column. With all of the hype from FEIN still seemingly growing and the success of ‘4 x 4’, the rapper has only higher peaks in sight on the horizon.

Gearing up to his previous release Utopia, however, Travis came under scrutiny for incidences that transpired at his shows, as well as the dissolution of his very public relationship with socialite Kylie Jenner. The pair certainly kept fans guessing and holding on to every breadcrumb they could get over their 4-year relationship, but called it off in January 2023 due to several reasons including trust issues and differences in lifestyle.

Travis Scott & Kylie Jenner - A Timeline

The pair were first rumored to be dating shortly after Kylie had split with Tyga in April 2017. Although representatives for both stars insisted they were just friends, the chatter intensified as they made more public appearances together over time. A month later, Travis Scott posted a distant photo of Kylie Jenner boarding a private jet.

In September 2017, the internet was set on fire when TMZ reported that Kylie was pregnant. While the couple managed to maintain a more low-key profile up to that point, this news would change everything.

On February 1st, 2018 they welcomed their first child Stormi Webster into the world. Jenner announced the birth three days later with an Instagram post and video entitled, “To Our Daughter”.

The couple seemed to be going strong. With the news of their relationship now very public, they felt comfortable supporting one another more openly than ever before. Grand gestures and professions of love ensued. This was until December 2018 when the first signs of trouble began to emerge. A photo of a man resembling Scott with another woman surfaced online and social media users went off. Though Travis Scott dispelled the rumors, this was the first apparent public crack in their shinily curated exterior veneer.

Rumors of infidelity from Travis’ end resurfaced in March 2019, as the notion of a potential split came to the forefront. The Houston rapper even cancelled a show during the turbulent time although he blamed it on being under the weather. Still, they managed to maintain a united front despite the chatter, until October 2019 when TMZ reported that the pair was temporarily separated.

The two remained friends and devoted co-parents post-split and showed support for one another on several occasions despite the breakup. Over time, they grew closer until they dropped a bombshell in June 2021 by announcing they were back together. In December of the same year, Kylie announced she was pregnant and that Stormi would be getting a younger sibling, and eventually brought Aire into the world in February 2022.

In January 2023 it was then announced that the pair had split again. Despite rumors of reconciliation, by the summer of 2023, it was clear the pair were done for good as a couple. Travis Scott remains an active co-parent to Stormi and Aire despite the split.

Kylie and Timothée

With her romance with Travis Scott firmly in the rearview, Kylie’s dating life became a massive point of contention for social media users everywhere. As early as April 2023 rumors began to surface that she was now seeing upcoming actor, budding mega-star, and internet darling Timothée Chalamet. No actual evidence supported these claims until September of 2023 when the pair attended Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour show in Los Angeles. They were captured for the first time in public and did not withhold their affection for one another despite being in such a public setting. The couple seems to be going strong since, with no reports of any ‘trouble in paradise’.
