Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet have finally made their relationship red carpet official. The couple, who reportedly started dating around April 2023, posed for pictures outside the 70th annual David Di Donatello Awards in Italy on Wednesday, May 7, 2025, marking their red carpet debut as a couple.
Jenner, 27, and Chalamet, 29, avoided walking the carpet together throughout awards season while the actor was repeatedly nominated for his role as Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown. Many hoped the two would make their first red carpet appearance at the 2025 Met Gala on Monday, May 5, 2025; however, the beauty mogul ultimately showed up solo as Chalamet stayed home.
In pictures from Wednesday’s ceremony in Europe, Jenner and Chalamet are seen cuddled up next to each other, holding hands and whispering in each other’s ears. The reality star dressed in a low-cut, beaded black gown with a gold-hued clutch, while the Call Me By Your Name star wore a double-breasted, black velvet suit with a white rose brooch.
The pair’s pictures come a few weeks after Chalamet’s mother, Nicole Flender, shared her thoughts about their relationship. Speaking with Curbed, Flender said she thought Jenner was “lovely.” “She’s very nice to me,” she continued before discussing her son’s decision to buy a house in Beverly Hills, California, near Jenner’s home, for $11 million. Flender said: “Did he ask for advice? No. He said, ‘Guess what? I bought a house.’”
Aside from Flender’s comments, the couple has kept the details of their romance under wraps. However, they’ve made a number of public appearances, just not on the red carpet, from Coachella in April to date nights in Paris. Jenner was also by Chalamet’s side for the 2025 Oscars awards. While Chalamet’s attendance at the 97th annual show was mostly guaranteed, considering he was nominated for his performance as Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown, many were unsure whether the beauty mogul would accompany him after she was noticeably absent from the Screen Actors Guild the week prior awards due to the death of her hairstylist Jesus Guerrero. She was, however, at the 2025 Golden Globes with Chalamet back in January.
Inside The Beverly Hilton Hotel, the makeup mogul and the Dune star were photographed giggling at a table next to each other with their backs to the camera. Her attendance at the Golden Globes came amid rumors the couple was expecting their first baby together. Speculation the 27-year-old, who already shares two kids with her ex-boyfriend Travis Scott, was pregnant with her third baby arose just a few days ago after the star posted a TikTok in which she covered her stomach with a shopping bag the entire time.
It's the romance the entire world has known about, but has never gone 'official.' Until now. And what an entrance it was when Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet finally made their red carpet debut in Rome. Just days after the billionaire beauty mogul arrived at the Met Gala without her actor partner, despite rampant rumors that would be the event they would finally go public at, they gave the world what it wanted.
The couple arrived hand-in-hand at the 70th David di Donatello ceremony, where Chalamet was being honoured with a Cinematic Excellence award. For around two years now, two of the world's biggest stars managed the impossible: a relatively private relationship. They were first linked in April 2023, after meeting in January that same year, and kept their romance mostly to themselves, refusing to discuss it in interviews and refraining from posting one another on social media.
Chalamet and Jenner have been snapped together in the wings at a few events over the years, including at the Oscars and the Golden Globes earlier this year. However, the mum-of-two was nowhere to be seen on those red carpets, only joining her movie star boyfriend later on inside.
Timothée Chalamet underlined the impact of Luca Guadagnino‘s Call Me by Your Name on his career as he received Italy’s David Award for Cinematic Excellence during the event’s 70th edition on Wednesday evening at Rome’s Cinecittà studios. “Luca is probably the most important person in my career,” said Chalamet, who attended Italy’s top film award show with girlfriend Kylie Jenner — marking the first time they’ve walked a red carpet together despite being linked for two years — and his father Marc Chalamet.
When Chalamet earned his first best actor nomination in 2017 for Guadagnino’s Call Me at 22, he was the third-youngest nominee ever in that category. “I started out as a 20-year-old kid from New York who was having a hard time breaking out in the American film industry,” Chalamet said. “My career happened overnight thanks to Luca Guadagnino and the chance he took on me playing in an Italian movie.”
Chalamet will receive the David for Cinematic Excellence honorary award at this year’s event. The president and artistic director of the Academy of Italian Cinema, Piera Detassis, described Chalamet as “one of the most unpredictable and talented protagonists of international cinema today.” According to Detassis, Chalamet is “capable of being both an auteur performer and a star generating trends and styles.”
Despite skipping the Met Gala on Monday night so he could watch the Knicks play the Celtics on a tiny iPad screen, it turns out that Timothée Chalamet had some room in his schedule to hit up a red carpet this week after all. And in Italy, of all places! He also brought along his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, and they even sort of matched their outfits.
Since becoming an item in early 2023, Chalamet and Jenner have been spotted at all manner of public events: basketball games, tennis matches, poker nights. The one place they hadn’t yet been seen together, however? On a red carpet. Despite the fact that Jenner—who, unlike her beau, did attend the Met this year—was by the actor’s side for much of his gonzo A Complete Unknown press tour, the duo had never actually walked in front of a step-and-repeat together.
Now that they’ve broken the step-and-repeat seal, it’ll be fun to watch them really start dressing. The pair was spotted partying at a nightclub after the F1 Miami Grand Prix recently. “They were having the time of their lives,” a source told Page Six over the weekend. “It was a full-on dance party with non-stop energy and PDA throughout the night.”
Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet have made their red carpet debut as couple — at last! The A-list lovebirds, who have been dating since 2023, walked their first red carpet together at the 70th David Di Donatello film awards May 7 at Cinecittà Studios in Rome.
