Timothée Chalamet was one of the best-dressed men at the 2024 Golden Globes — but Kylie Jenner didn’t walk the red carpet with him.
Chalamet, 28, made his entrance at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, on Sunday, January 7, in a black sequined jacket by Celine Homme with skinny trousers and Chelsea boots. He paired his look with a black and silver choker by Cartier.
Chalamet was nominated for Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy for Wonka. Some fans thought he might walk the red carpet at the awards show with Jenner, 26, but the reality star was nowhere to be seen outside the venue. Inside, however, the duo sat together and didn’t shy away from PDA.
“Kylie was flirting with him and playing with his necklace,” an eyewitness exclusively told Us Weekly, adding that the pair “shared a kiss” at one point.
Last month, a source told Us Weekly that Jenner and Chalamet’s relationship has been getting stronger.
“Things are going great between Kylie and Timothée,” the insider shared in December 2023, adding that the duo have been “spending more time together since they both have some free time during the holiday season.”
The source also noted that Chalamet is “always making [Kylie] smile and they have a very special connection.”
That same month, Kylie and mom Kris Jenner quietly attended the Los Angeles premiere of Wonka in Los Angeles.
“She’s one of his biggest supporters and was so glad she and Kris were able to be there,” an insider shared with Us. “Kylie didn’t want to make a huge scene when she attended the Wonka premiere, so she decided to skip the carpet and make a low-key entrance. This night was all about Timothée and she didn’t want to take away from that in any way.”
Jenner and Chalamet first sparked romance rumors in April 2023, nearly three months after The Kardashians star split from Travis Scott. (The former couple share daughter Stormi, 5, and son Aire, 1.)
“Kylie has only hung out with Timothée a couple of times, so things aren’t that serious,” a source told Us in April 2023. “However, she’s enjoying getting to know him better and is open to seeing where things go. Things are very new so it’s hard to tell, but so far she likes what she sees. … He’s not like any of the other guys she’s dated before and although he may not seem like her type, they have really good chemistry.”
In June, another insider shared with Us that Jenner’s family “really likes” Chalamet.
“Some of Kylie’s family members have met Timothée including Kris and Kendall [Jenner]. They really like him and think he’s different from anybody Kylie has dated in the past,” the source explained. “He has a great sense of humor, and he makes her smile which is the most important thing to them. They love seeing how happy she is and absolutely approve of them dating.”
Three months later, the couple made their romance public at the Beyoncé concert after they were spotted getting cozy with each other in the VIP section.
