Gwyneth Paltrow's time with Timothée Chalamet has significantly increased her love for his partner, Kylie Jenner, and her famous family.
The Hollywood veteran and the American-French actor connected as co-stars on the set of the upcoming ping-pong movie, "Marty Supreme." A source recently claimed the actress wouldn't hesitate to mentor Chalamet's girlfriend or her siblings as they branch into acting.
The insider's words matched Gwyneth Paltrow's raving review about Timothée Chalamet. She noted working with the younger actor wasn't awkward despite their 23-year age gap and multiple intimate scenes.
Gwyneth Paltrow Is Willing To Mentor Timothée Chalamet's Partner Kylie Jenner
According to a source, Paltrow is willing to support Kylie and other members of the Kardashian-Jenner clan in their acting pursuits. They claimed the "Iron Man" actress has always been a fan of the famous reality TV family, saying:
"Gwyneth has never shied away from the Kardashians. Especially since they became a massive multi-media business force in the late 2000s, right as Gwyn was starting to make Goop into a powerhouse in its own right."
"Now that Gwyn is aligned with Timmy Chalamet on their next film, she has more reason than ever to embrace all things Kardashian," the source continued. "Marty Supreme is an important project for everybody because it's a risky, weird movie that has the potential to break through and make a fortune."
The insider noted Paltrow respected the Kar-Jenner clan and has always been "impressed" by their achievements. "She saw their influence before almost anybody and recognized how important they would become in the worlds of fashion, social media, and entertainment," the source told In Touch.
The Marvel Actress Allegedly Influenced Kim Kardashian's Relationship With Ryan Murphy
The insider explained that Paltrow's interest in mentoring Kylie and her family didn't just stem from her admiration of the "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" stars.
They noted her possible collaboration with the TV personalities could result in new business opportunities for her Goop brand and her acting career. Surprisingly, one member of the Kardashian-Jenner family has unknowingly enjoyed the benefits of having a relationship with Paltrow.
The source alleged Kim Kardashian's involvement in "American Horror Story: Delicate" and her blossoming relationship with director Ryan Murphy was thanks to Paltrow. According to them, Murphy would never have cast Kim in his show if Paltrow wasn't a fan of the Kardashians.
"Gwyneth's extremely close friend Ryan Murphy would not be mentoring Kim Kardashian and building multiple TV shows around her if Gwyneth had any kind of problem with Kim or any of her sisters," the insider claimed.
Paltrow Raves About Her Working Relationship With Chalamet
Claims of Paltrow's interest in mentoring Kylie and her siblings come a month after the "Shallow Hal" star gushed about her working relationship with Chalamet. The Blast covered the story, reporting the actress gave fans a sneak-peak at what to expect from the upcoming ping-pong movie.
The film's plot revolves around Chalamet, a ping-pong prodigy navigating the competitive world of international table tennis. Paltrow plays the wife of a rival player, whose connection with the American-French actor's character takes an unexpected turn. In the actress's words:
"This woman who is married to someone who is in the Ping-Pong mafia, as it were. They meet, and she's had a pretty tough life, and I think he breathes life back into her, but it's kind of transactional for them both."
She went on to praise Chalamet as "a thinking man's sex symbol," noting their on-set connection was easy thanks to his upstanding personality. "He's just a very polite, properly raised, I was going to say kid. He's a man who takes his work really seriously and is a fun partner," Paltrow raved.
The Academy Award Winner Didn't Need An Intimacy Coordinator
The 23-year age gap between Paltrow and Chalamet did not affect their abilities as actors, with the older of the pair noting they barely needed guidance from the movie's intimacy coordinator. "I mean, we have a lot of sex in this movie. There's a lot, a lot," she revealed, later adding:
"When 'Marty Supreme's' intimacy coordinator asked me if I'd be comfortable with a particular move during the filming of an intimate scene, I was like, 'Girl, I'm from the era where you get naked, you get in bed, the camera's on.'"
Paltrow noted Chalamet shared her sentiments about the intimacy coordinator, recalling: "We said, 'I think we're good. You can step a little bit back,'" she recalled, adding:
"I don't know how it is for kids who are starting out, but…if someone is like, 'Okay, and then he's going to put his hand here,' I would feel, as an artist, very stifled by that."
Timothée Chalamet's Mom Approves Of His Partner Kylie Jenner
Days earlier, The Blast shared the "Dune" actor's mom's raving review of his girlfriend Kylie. Nicole Flender approved her son's choice in an interview, declaring: "I have to say she's lovely. She's very nice to me."
Flender also shared her thoughts on Chalamet's recent $11 million home purchase in Beverly Hills. The property, located on the West Coast, is reportedly near his girlfriend's residence. The doting mom recalled the moment she heard the news, saying:
"Did he ask for my advice? No. He said, 'Guess what? I bought a house."
Despite his mother being a real estate agent, Chalamet and Kylie have embarked on their real estate journey without her insight. The couple has been house hunting across Europe, enlisting agents to scout properties in Milan and Paris. They reportedly have a budget of $2 million to $8.2 million.
