Kylie Jenner made a public appearance alongside her boyfriend, Timothee Chalamet, as they supported his favorite team, the New York Knicks, during their game against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday.
Despite recent rumors circulating among her fans that Chalamet had snubbed her at the Met Gala to catch the NBA playoffs, the 28-year-old reality star and the 30-year-old actor seemed closer than ever. They were spotted enjoying each other’s company at Madison Square Garden in New York City, sharing affectionate moments throughout the evening.
Seated in the front row, the couple exchanged numerous kisses, stealing moments of intimacy as they momentarily diverted their attention from the thrilling game. The Knicks eventually emerged victorious with a 108-102 win over the 76ers.
Fresh from her striking appearance at fashion’s grandest event on Monday, where she wore a daring fake nipple dress, Jenner opted for a more laid-back ensemble for the basketball game. She sported a simple white tank top that highlighted her toned arms, paired with classic blue jeans.
Completing her casual yet stylish look, Jenner styled her long black hair into a sleek ponytail, maintaining her signature flair even in a more relaxed setting.
Jenner’s blue crocodile Hermes Birkin bag – a piece that retails for anywhere between $40,000 to $80,000 – was perched by her feet.

At one victorious point in the game Chalamet leapt to his feet for an animated celebration, and was seen flexing his muscles as Jenner sipped on a drink next to him.
Jenner completed the look with a pair of pointed-toe red heels and carried a red jacket in case it got chilly.
Meanwhile Chalamet matched her in a bold Avirex red leather jacket paired with blue jeans and brown worker boots.
He later took off his jacket, revealing a long sleeve grey shirt.
The pair enjoyed their front-row view alongside a star-studded crowd, with actor Ben Stiller sitting just a few seats away.
The outing came after Chalamet was branded a bad boyfriend for failing to support his girlfriend at the Met Gala.
The Marty Supreme star shunned the glitz and glamour at Manhattan’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, instead heading to watch the Knicks in the NBA playoffs.
The Oscar nominee was spotted rubbing elbows with Tracy Morgan and actress Susie Essman for game one of the Eastern Conference semifinal series, where the Knicks trounced the Philadelphia 76ers 137 -98.

Jenner, meanwhile, went solo on the red carpet, rocking a shocking flesh-colored Schiaparelli gown with a nipple-teasing bodice.
On social media, Chalamet didn’t address his Met Gala absence, instead posting a picture of his baby blue Adidas Samba sneakers as he sat courtside.
While some TikTok users praised the actor’s move as relatable, some Jenner fans fumed, saying Chalamet should have been by his girlfriend’s side.
‘He never supports Kylie when it’s about her, but she always supports him,’ one opined.
It marks the second year in a row the star has ditched the Met Gala to watch the Knicks.
Last year, Jenner also went solo at the event while Chalamet soaked up an NBA game.
Last May, the Knicks superfan holed up with three guy friends in a hotel to cheer on their beloved team to victory against the Boston Celtics 108-105 on an iPad.
‘I had to be locked in, man,’ Chalamet later explained when addressing his absence from the event.
