Timothée Chalamet's mother has shared her thoughts on his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, in a very rare comment.
Chalamet, 29, and Jenner, 27, have been dating for quite some time now and have attended a number of public events together, including Coachella, the Oscars and the BAFTAs.
The cute couple seem to be as loved-up as ever - but what do each other's family members make of the pairing?
Well, speaking in an interview with Curbed published on Monday (21 April), Chalamet's mum, real-estate agent Nicole Flender, has revealed exactly what she thinks about The Kardashians star.

Discussing her son's recently purchase of a property in Beverly Hills priced at $11 million, Flender told the outlet with a laugh: "Did he ask for my advice? No!
"He said, 'Guess what? I bought a house'."
The house in question is located on the same coast where his girlfriend, Jenner, lives.
"I have to say she’s lovely," Flender then said of Jenner. "She’s very nice to me."
Elsewhere in the interview, Flender also opened up about her other child, Pauline - the Call Me By Your Name actor's older sister who is 33.
She explained that Pauline, who is also in the Hollywood biz, best known for starring in the HBO Max comedy series The Sex Lives of College Girls as well as making her feature film debut in Judd Apatow's comedy The King of Staten Island, had bought an apartment in Paris.
But, it's clear that Flender won’t be following either of them around as she has no plans to depart from her Manhattan Plaza abode.
"Would you like your mum to be trailing you everywhere?" she asked, speaking of her two children. "I like being able to go visit them."
Flender joined her son at the SAG Awards back in February which saw him taking home the Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role award for A Complete Unknown, beating out Adrien Brody for his role in The Brutalist, Daniel Craig for Queer, Colman Domingo for Sing Sing and Ralph Fiennes for Conclave.
Elsewhere in the evening, Chalamet surprised fans with an unexpected acceptance speech.
Standing on stage, the Ladybird A-lister said: "I know the classiest thing would be to downplay the effort that went into this role, and how much this means to me. But the truth is, I'm really in pursuit of greatness."
He gave special mention to those who inspired him, as he added: "I know people don't usually talk like that, but I want to be one of the greats, I'm inspired by the greats.
"I'm inspired by the greats here tonight. I'm as inspired by Daniel Day Lewis, Marlon Brando and Viola Davis, as I am by Michael Jordan and Michael Phelps. And I want to be up there.
"So I'm deeply grateful to that."
Chalamet then concluded: "This doesn't signify that but it's a little more fuel, it's a little more ammo to keep going. Thank you so much."
