As two of the most famous people in the world, it’s understandable that Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet’s relationship has largely played out in the shadows, with fans’ insights limited to grainy shots of the pair out together in face masks and baseball caps pulled low, or footage of them arriving separately at each other’s houses. It follows, then, that when they have step out in public, the response is internet pandemonium—even more so because this much-obsessed-over pair just can’t seem to keep their hands off one another.

As Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet make their latest joint appearance at the 2026 Golden Globes (just a week after going viral at the Critics Choice Awards), we’re taking a look back at more of their sweetest moments to date.

An explosive public debut

Where else would an Oscar-nominated heartthrob and a bombshell beauty mogul make their first joint public appearance other than in the VIP section of Beyoncé’s insanely starry birthday concert in LA, alongside the likes of Kim Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Zendaya, Ayo Edebiri, Meghan Markle, Adele, and Justin and Hailey Bieber? In videos from the night in question, back in September 2023, Kylie and Timothée can be seen holding hands, whispering, and laughing together, dancing in each other’s arms and kissing passionately. Cue a complete frenzy—and the birth of a Hollywood power couple.

A meme-worthy trip to the US Open

Just days later, the couple were spotted at the US Open final in New York—but it’s unclear how much of the tense battle between Novak Djokovic and Daniil Medvedev they actually caught. In a surreal series of photos that really have to be seen to be believed, the pair cuddled, leaned in for kisses, snacked on chicken fingers, and took cute photos of each other. Bonus points for their coordinating outfits and sunglasses, too.

A (very on-brand) relationship milestone

Not long after that, Kylie accidentally revealed her phone’s lock screen at the Prada show during Milan Fashion Week: a close-up shot of—what else?—Timothée kissing her affectionately on the cheek. A very relatable relationship milestone from a (sorry) not-particularly-relatable couple.

An adorable show of support

A month and a half later, in November, Kylie and Timothée looked happier than ever at the WSJ magazine 2023 Innovator Awards in New York, where the latter served as a presenter and supported the former as she received the publication’s brand award. Once again, they were incredibly cozy at dinner, and wore dark, understated, complementary looks.

In an exchange which felt as if it’d been plucked straight out of a rom-com (and should keep lip-readers in business for the rest of time), Kylie and Timothée held hands, canoodled, kissed, and whispered sweet nothings to each other over champagne in the low-lit ballroom of LA’s Beverly Hilton Hotel at the 2024 Golden Globes in January. The Wonka star might have lost out on the best-actor-in-a-musical-or-comedy prize to The Holdovers’s Paul Giamatti, but it didn’t look like he minded at all. Here’s hoping there are many more joint awards show outings to come once 2025 (and Timothée’s inevitable campaign for his Bob Dylan biopic, A Complete Unknown) rolls around.

And so an annual outing to the Golden Globes became tradition! At the 2025 ceremony, Kylie joined Timothée and his A Complete Unknown co-stars, Elle Fanning and Monica Barbaro, at their table groaning with Moët. Wearing a vintage Versace chainmail dress a la Elizabeth Hurley, the Khy founder and her beau looked every inch the young couple in love.

As Timothée kept us entertained on the A Complete Unknown press tour, he and Kylie embodied one of the oldest couple-style clichés: “dressed-to-the-nines girlfriend, casual-as-hell boyfriend” in Paris. It’s fun to see these two being out and proud with their romance, and it seems like they’re even sharing a wardrobe now. Then there was a short stop in Germany for the Berlinale premiere, where Timothée donned a baby-pink Chrome Hearts set, while Kylie wore a glittering Balenciaga pre-fall 2024 black gown. And finally, the pair traveled to London for the 2025 BAFTAs: though Kylie skipped the red carpet, she met Timothée inside for the ceremony and twinned with their matched Cartier Panthère rings. Though he didn’t win best actor, the pair had a fun night with Take That, The Proclaimers, and David Tennant.

And the award goes to…

Kylie Jenner might have skipped the front rows at fashion week this season, but she had an arguably more prestigious seat to occupy beside Timothée Chalamet at the 2025 Oscars. Jenner once again bypassed the red carpet to join her boyfriend at the 97th Academy Awards, snap selfies, and no doubt thank the good Lord that Take That wasn’t performing. (See: above.) She wore a custom Miu Miu bodycon dress encrusted with black caviar beads (followed by corseted black lace from Ashi Studio at the after-party), while Chalamet opted for a leather Givenchy suit in pale yellow. In a sea of conservative, Old Hollywood cosplay, it was refreshing to see two under-30s dressing like, well, under-30s.

Just a week after the Oscars, the pair were back at it—and by it, I mean sipping drinks, holding hands, and whispering sweet nothings to each other, this time at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, California.

And finally…their red carpet debut!

Two nights after the 2025 Met Gala, which Jenner attended in skintight custom Ferragamo while Chalamet…*checks notes*….watched the Knicks-Celtics game on an iPad, the couple finally made their red carpet debut in Rome, at the 70th David di Donatello ceremony. Now, that wasn’t so hard, was it?

The Eastern Conference finals between the New York Knicks and the Indiana Pacers, at Madison Square Garden and then in Indianapolis, called for matching jackets and a ton of PDA.

And twinning on the red carpet

Like it or loathe it, the prevailing opinion was that something—if not quite iconic, then certainly memorable—had occurred when Timothée and Kylie turned up to the Los Angeles premiere of Marty Supreme in matching tangerine Chrome Hearts outfits. Tasteful? No. But it was fun, which is perhaps the point of being young, rich, famous, beautiful, and in love. “Is there anything better than watching Hollywood’s hottest double act do a Posh and Becks?” asked Vogue’s Alice Newbold, a line echoed when Hacks stars Meg Stalter and Paul W. Downs arrived at the Critics Choice Awards 2026 in a near-identical replica of those hi-vis fits.

Kylie has gone all in on the Marty Supreme campaign trail, from repping the film’s merch to those aforementioned ping-pong-ball-orange looks. While she skipped the red carpet at the 2026 Palm Springs International Film Festival—where Timothée was honored with the Spotlight Award—she still delivered a method-dressing moment in the audience with a custom copper-sequin dress by Ludovic de Saint Sernin. Timothée responded in kind, commenting on the Instagram post Kylie shared of the look with a string of orange hearts.

The public acknowledgement

And then, at the 2026 Critics Choice Awards, Kylie watched on teary-eyed as Timothée scooped the best-actor prize for Marty Supreme. “Thank you to my partner of three years. Thank you for our foundation,” he said, during his acceptance speech. “I love you. I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.” The camera panned to Jenner—who was seated with the movie-makers and dressed in an fall winter 1996 Gianni Versace Couture gown—mouthing the words, “I love you.”

Running it back at the Golden Globes 2026

After a Versace-clad makeout at the 2025 Golden Globes, Kylie upped the ante this year, getting shouted out publicly by her Globe-winning beau (more subtly this time; Timothée simply thanked “my parents and my partner, I love you so much”) and looking as cozied-up as ever at their all-star table.
