After fans worried that Kimothée were over, insiders have now given more insight into the 28-year-old Dune star's low-key romance with the 26-year-old beauty mogul.

A main reason why Kylie and Timothée aren't saying much about their relationship is due to the Wonka star's discomfort after their steamy Golden Globes ceremony spotting, per OK! Magazine.

The source explained, "Timothée didn't like all the attention he got from the Golden Globes, and the kiss took away attention for the real reason he was there."

"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 isn't dating," they added.

Additionally, the insider noted the young Oscar nominee "wants to protect his relationship" with the Khy founder.

Timothée is currently busy gearing up to play Bob Dylan and Kylie launching a new fragrance. But the lovebirds were recently spotted during a rare outing, squashing split rumors that have been circulating the internet.
