Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet have not split according to insiders - who have revealed the real reason pair have not been pictured together in months.
Fans were convinced the couple had gone their separate ways since Valentine's Day, when Kylie failed to mention the Wonka actor in her social media posts. Now after months of speculation, the duo were seen undercover on a low-key date this week, and are said to be more loved up than ever.
Insiders say they stepped away from the limelight as a couple, because Timothée was uncomfortable with all the drama surrounding them at the Golden Globes over Selena Gomez. He feared it would take attention away from his promotion for his movie Dune 2, says sources.

The source added: "His career is taking off and he wants to protect it and let it thrive based on his talent- not on who he is or isnt dating. He also wants to protect his relationship with Kylie."

Kylie and Timothée were finally seen together after months of speculation about their romance, this week. The couple were spotted at an ice cream parlour both wearing masks and trying to keep their outing lowkey.
In a picture posted to Instagram, only Timothée faced the camera as he wore a black mask over his face that only showed his eyes and what appeared to be a hood. Kylie was facing away from the camera with a cream-coloured hood on her head, a black leather jacket, and a brown tote bag slung over her shoulder.
This outing comes as the public started speculating whether or not the two were still a couple or not. The Kardashians star recently attended the Vanity Fair Oscars party with her mum Kris Jenner and sisters Kim Kardashian and Kendall Jenner.
Timothée wasn't with Kylie, leading to speculation that the couple's year-long relationship was over. Fans also speculated the relationship had ended when Kylie did an interview with the New York Times earlier this month. The 26-year-old was asked if her new "clean girl" fashion look was inspired by a break-up with a certain Dune actor.
Kylie bluntly answered: "I just don’t want to talk about personal things." Fans thought she was dodging the question, with one writing on social media: "Is this a sign she split from Timothée? Avoiding the subject?"
