Kylie Jenner & Timothée Chalamet Spotted on Rare Date Night
If you want to view paradise, simply check out the way Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet look at each other when they’re surrounded by people.
The actor and the cosmetics mogul quickly became adept at creating a world of their own no matter where they are, be it at nationally televised events like the U.S. Open and the Golden Globes or in the middle of Beyoncé‘s Renaissance birthday show in Los Angeles, the site of their first public appearance together last September.
Date night sightings tapered off this past spring as Chalamet got busy playing Bob Dylan in the James Mangold-directed A Complete Unknown, but he and the Kylie Cosmetics mogul surfaced for a movie date à deux in June. Wearing masks in the parking lot, incidentally, to up the privacy factor despite being smack in the middle of tourist central on Hollywood Boulevard.
With celebrity romances often indecipherable in their early stages, it was unclear at first just how serious Jenner, who’s turning 27 on Aug. 10, and Chalamet were, or whether they were even more than friends.
But now it has been 15 months since they were originally linked in a romantic fashion (and in regular fashion, as Jenner wore Gaulthier by Chalamet favorite Haider Ackermann to the 2023 Met Gala), and at the 2024 Golden Globes they graduated to the fans-frantically-lip-reading-for-clues stage of their relationship.

Yet that world of pure imagination was only possible because the pair are full-on dating in public, not bothering with any comments or Instagram posts and just letting their PDA-packed outings do the talking.
“I don’t know how I feel about that,” Jenner told the New York Times in March when asked if she had thoughts on the Internet’s assumption her love life was manifesting in some tweaks to her style. “I just don’t want to talk about personal things.”
As for Chalamet, while he knows every move he makes will garner interest—”I can’t say that this stuff doesn’t matter,” he told GQ for its November 2023 cover story, “because my intense fandom has led me to where I am”—he wouldn’t mind being left alone just a bit.
And he acknowledged the irony of wanting to keep something to himself while dating someone with 398 million Instagram followers. Referencing a South Park episode that parodied Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s concerns about privacy while seemingly throwing the door to their world wide open via interviews, a docuseries and a best-selling memoir, Chalamet said, “Sometimes, people are going to be hella confused when you say you’re trying to live a private life.”
Though Jenner’s been on reality TV in one form or another since middle school, she has been known to take the occasional break from big reveals— such as when she waited until after daughter Stormi Webster (with ex Travis Scott) was born in 2018 to share scenes from her pregnancy journey.
But while Jenner—also mom to 2-year-old son Aire Webster—has yet to call Chalamet by the name of boyfriend (out loud while talking into a recording device, that is), she has acknowledged his presence in this world and on Arrakis.
Asked last fall if she’d seen Dune, Chalamet’s blockbuster 2021 sci-fi epic, she told the Wall Street Journal, “I do love that movie.”
She reportedly smiled.
And that was before she attended a Wonka party in London and sat right next to Chalamet during the film’s L.A. premiere, to which she also brought mom Kris Jenner. The Kardashians matriarch had subtly shipped her youngest daughter’s romance with the 28-year-old movie star by reposting one of the teasers for his Saturday Night Live hosting gig on Instagram Stories in November.
Then the pair treated Golden Globe viewers to their coziest-looking date night yet, Jenner wearing a vintage Hanae Mori gown that seamlessly coordinated with acting nominee Chalamet’s black Celine suit. In fact, there were moments where you couldn’t be sure where his couture ended and hers began.
So while they’ve yet to speak on the subject, pictures can be worth a thousand words. So read on and see Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet’s romance in photos:
