One week after Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet’s affectionate BAFTA Awards date night in London, Chalamet attended the Actor Awards, formerly known as the SAG Awards, with a different plus one: his mother, Nicole Flender. They posed together on the red carpet:
During the show, Chalamet was photographed sitting next to his Marty Supreme co-star, Gwyneth Paltrow. While Jenner has joined Chalamet inside other awards shows this season, she wasn’t seen with him over halfway into the show. Instead, the pair seemingly chose to keep the focus on his work and special night with his mom.
Chalamet and Jenner were seen earlier this week, however. Photos surfaced of Chalamet kissing Jenner on the set of her Beverly Hills photo shoot. Last Sunday, Jenner joined him inside the BAFTAs, too:
Jenner and Chalamet have attended many of the 2026 awards shows together, including the Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards.
At the Critics Choice Awards, Chalamet spoke openly about his love for Jenner during his acceptance speech. He told the crowd, including Jenner, “And lastly, I’ll just say thank you to my partner of three years. Thank you for our foundation. I love you. I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
The couple has kept the majority of their relationship out of the spotlight, though Chalamet recently shared the sweet birthday surprise that Jenner arranged for him at the end of December during a CNN Town Hall with Matthew McConaughey.
Chalamet was turning 30, and Jenner secretly organized a private IMAX screening of Interstellar, the 2014 film that Chalamet acted in alongside McConaughey. He loves that movie, he said earlier in the chat: “I have legitimately maybe seen it 22 times or something. I saw it 12 times in theaters when it came out.”
When Jenner took him to the theater, “I was grumpy on the way there, because I didn’t know where she was taking me at,” Chalamet recalled. “It’s my birthday. Why are we driving 30 minutes outside L.A.? I got to the theater. It was Interstellar in IMAX. I said, ‘Oh, I’m sorry.’ I said, ‘I’m sorry I was so grumpy on the drive.’”
