Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet first sparked romance rumors in early 2023. They made their union public for the first time when they attended a Beyoncé concert together that September. The following year, they attended several award shows together.
Kylie has certainly been using these events as opportunities to serve several eye-catching looks. She recently wore one of them to the 2025 BAFTA Film Awards. The appearance was one of many Kylie made to support her boyfriend’s success in the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown.
While the two attend events together, they don’t walk the red carpet alongside one another. However, they are happy to be photographed inside, even packing on the PDA at times. They also dodge questions about one another during interviews. It makes for a confusing dynamic between the stars and their audience. Where is the line between what is public and what isn’t? It’s clear that this is something they are still figuring out themselves.
Kylie And Timothée Are Very Carefully Going Public With Their Relationship
In February 2025, Kylie Jenner joined boyfriend Timothée Chalamet at the 2025 BAFTA Film Awards in London. Timothée was nominated in the Leading Actor category for playing Bob Dylan in the biopic A Complete Unknown. The two were matching; with Kylie stunning in a backless black gown, while the actor wore a simple double-breasted black suit.
The couple did not walk the red carpet together, but Kylie sat with Timothée inside the Royal Festival Hall during the show. The two were photographed together sharing some sweet moments together during the show. The couple were also seen talking to another A Complete Unknown star, Monica Barbaro, who plays Joan Baez in the film.
Despite being together since 2023, the couple have yet to make their red carpet debut as a couple. They were first spotted in public together at a Beyoncé concert in Los Angeles that September. Kylie was in attendance at the 2025 Golden Globes, where Timothée brought her as his date for the second time to that particular award show. At the 2024 ceremony, the couple hard launched their relationship. To everyone’s surprise, they even shared a passionate kiss for the cameras at this year’s ceremony.
There was more PDA from the couple at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival the same month. They even attended a screening of A Complete Unknown at the Berlin Film Festival on Valentine’s Day. Kylie spotted another backless black gown for the event, while Timothée rocked a pink hoodie and matching sweatpants.
Of course, privacy is something this couple seems to value. In January, Timothée was in attendance at the Palm Springs Film Festival where Entertainment Tonight asked him about Kylie, but the actor dodged the question. “You have a lot of supporters in here,” the reporter asked. “I know you brought your partner-in-crime, Kylie, here, too. What’s it like to have her supporting you on a night like this?”
“It’s a great feeling to be in a room with so much love and so many great peers and people that are fantastic,” Timothée replied. “I like seeing the new wave and the new generation here, and I also like seeing everyone that’s been holding it down for decades-plus.”
Timothée Opened Up About Juggling His Status As A Public Figure With Having A Private Life
Privacy is something the actor has admittedly wrestled with over the years. In 2023, he was asked by GQ about the intense public interest in his love life, to which he responded, “I can’t say that this stuff doesn’t matter, because my intense fandom has led me to where I am.”
Timothée seemed annoyed at the idea that, as a famous person, he might not be entitled to live a completely private life. The writer of the article, Daniel Riley, even suggested that if the actor valued his privacy that much, he wouldn’t be dating someone as famous as Kylie. This caused Timothée to laugh and mention the South Park parody of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, where the famous couple traveled around the world, asking for privacy.

“This reminds me of that recent South Park episode with the Worldwide Privacy Tour,” he said. “Sometimes, people are going to be hella confused when you say you’re trying to live a private life.”
He went on to explain how protecting himself can help strengthen his skills as an artist. “You’ve got to have the experiences in your personal life that are usable to you,” Timothée said. “The experiential rush of my career taking off was so new to me that those were the experiences that were feeding my work for a while. But you’ve got to have real experiences. Human experiences. You’ve got to fall in love, you’ve got to be bored.”
Kylie Has Talked About How She Attempts To Maintain Privacy Since Dating Timothée
Kylie opened up to British Vogue in August 2024 about trying to have some privacy despite being a public figure. The discussion came after her relationship with Timothée went public. Kylie didn’t want to talk about the relationship with the outlet and explained why that was. “Privacy is so important to me in life,” she admitted. Part of the reason Kylie now values privacy is that she didn’t have much of it growing up. Therefore, she said it “feels so good” to have the ability to keep certain things to herself now.
Kylie talked about how she keeps a low profile while in New York City, either to visit her boyfriend or attend meetings. “I’ve been walking the High Line,” Kylie said, adding that nobody had recognized her. She said the reason for that is because she dresses in a way that helps her blend in. One of the things she makes sure to wear is a baseball cap. “There’s an angle that you can do where they can’t see your face, and I wear a mask,” she said. “I haven’t had one person notice me [in New York]. I’ve been really able to get around.”
Kylie did get photographed with Timothée while on a date at TCL Chinese Theatre in June of that year. She was wearing a mask and baseball cap. Of course, when you’re famous, this comes with the territory. Fame is something Kylie talked about at length in the premiere episode of her reality show Life of Kylie in 2017.
“[I] laugh. In their face,” Kylie said of people who claim she has the perfect life. “Nobody has a perfect life. The only different thing about me, or out of the ordinary, really, is probably just that I have nice things. But what you realize when you get there — when I know I could buy any car, any house — is that that happiness lasts two seconds.”
She continued, “That’s not my real happiness, that’s not where I find happiness. I’m so blessed that I got to experience this at such a young age and learn that, so now I can find what really is going to make me happy.”
When it comes to her struggle for privacy, Kylie did own up to the things she does which attracts attention. “I for sure didn’t choose this life, but I’m not going to say that I’m totally innocent, because I am keeping up this lifestyle,” she said. “I know I’m making myself more famous by having an Instagram and posting photos, but I’m not that type of person where I want all the attention. I don’t like that. It actually freaks me out, because it reminds me that I’m ‘Kylie f****** Jenner.’”
However, Kylie also put things in perspective and admitted that she has a lot to be grateful for. “A lot of people have it worse than me,” she said. “It’s just it is a lot to handle. Sometimes, I’m like: ‘This is it. I’m going insane.’ I feel like this fame thing is going to come to an end sooner than we think. I’m getting the bug again, where I just want to run away. I just don’t know who I’m doing it for.”
Kylie added, “The new goal in my life is to just live. I live the most extraordinary life, and I’m very grateful. But the moments I feel completely normal and just a 19-year-old girl, it’s the best.”
