Their relationship has raised a few eyebrows since they confirmed they were dating in March.
But rapper Tyga, 25, is said to be defiant about romancing 17-year-old Kylie Jenner.
Despite the notable eight year age difference and the fact the reality TV star is still in her teens, the hip-hop star has been telling pals that she is 'more mature than most adults', according to TMZ
The website claims that Tyga - real name Michael Nguyen-Stevenson - says that Kris Jenner's daughter doesn't act like a regular teenage girl due to the fact she's 'a millionaire who runs a company and even owns her own home'.
Kylie has certainly followed in the footsteps of her money-spinning family, lending her name to hair and beauty products, clothing lines and even releasing a novel with sister Kendall.
She is set to prove her independence even further in August when she moves into a $2.7 million Calabasas home - her first property.
Her grown-up attitude hasn't stopped some famous critics taking a swipe at her relationship with Tyga.
Model Amber Rose - ex-girlfriend of sister Kim's husband Kanye - got into a war of words with Khloe about the pair dating.
Amber wrote on Twitter: 'She's a baby, she needs to go to bed at 7 o'clock and relax. [Tyga] should be ashamed of himself. He has a beautiful woman and a baby and left that for a 16-year-old who just turned 17.'
The video vixen was referencing Tyga's former fiancee Blac Chyna, who is the mother of his son King Cairo.
Her love life isn't the only controversial thing Kylie is dealing with at the moment; she has finally confirmed she has had lip injections.
Kylie has never admitted to the cosmetic procedure before, despite being questioned about her changing appearance for years.
'I have had temporary lip fillers,' she says in an E! clip from Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
'It's just something that I wanted to do.'
Kylie said she 'wasn't ready' to talk directly to the press about the procedure and instead decided not to 'confirm or deny' it when asked by reporters.
In another clip, her sister Khloe Kardashian advises that she 'cop to it' adding: 'If you avoid the question, you're going to look like a liar.'
The short video depicts the two sisters at a media event, where Kylie rushes to Khloe's side after being interviewed by members of the press, saying: 'My heart literally dropped. They were like...'
'They asked you?' Khloe, 30, responds.
'Yeah,' the teenager says, 'They were like, "So all this lip talk. You know like tell... how do you feel about it?" I was like "ahhhhh".'
It then cuts to Khloe telling the camera in a confessional segment: 'Kylie decided to plump her lips and I don't think there is anything wrong with that.
'I think if you've done something though, it is right to cop up to it. If you avoid the question you're gonna look like a liar.'
Previously, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star staunchly maintained that her lips were all natural, and that the fullness she often flaunts on social media is down to clever make-up application.
'I feel like everyone has been talking about it for months, so I'm kind of sick of it,' she recently told E! in an interview when asked about her pout.
'My pictures, I pout them out a lot. I think big lips are awesome,' she added. 'I love lip liner and over-lining my lips.'
'But I don't even care anymore. I'm like whatever, just say whatever you want.'
And even her make-up artist Rob Scheppy denied reports that the 17-year-old's lips are fake in an exclusive interview with FEMAIL in December, saying: 'I find it funny that so much attention is drawn to my work, but I like it,' adding, 'Kylie's lips are created using expertly applied lip liner and a little lip balm.'
While in April last year, Kylie tweeted her own denial. 'These plastic surgery rumors hurt my feelings to be honest and are kinda insulting,' adding, 'Just in case anyone forgot... I'm 16'.
Her mother Kris Jenner, who notoriously underwent plastic surgery on an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, has been open to her children undergoing the knife as well.
Khloe revealed in an interview in the February 2014 issue of Cosmopolitan UK that Kris wanted her to get a nose job at the tender age of nine.
'She didn’t mean harm, but when I was around nine I overheard my mom telling her friend I needed a nose job,' revealed the reality star.
'I was shocked; I hadn’t even thought about it,' she said.
Kylie's new pouty look, however, inspired a worrying trend dubbed the '#kyliejennerchallenge', which swept social media, encouraging teens to blow their lips up to epic proportions using bottles or shot glasses.
The reportedly painful method involves participants placing their mouth over the opening of a cup, jar or other narrow vessel and sucking in until the air vacuum causes their lips to swell up - all in the hopes of emulating Jenner's bee-stung pout.
Countless teens, both boys and girls, have been sharing the disturbing results of their experiments on Twitter and Instagram, which in many cases has led to severe bruising around the mouth.
