Timothee Chalamet publicly addresses girlfriend Kylie Jenner for the first time on stage at the Critics Choice Awards

Timothee Chalamet has taken home the top gong at the Critics Choice Awards for his role in Marty Supreme, but all we want to talk about is that adorable shoutout in his acceptance speech.

In case you missed it, after thanking his colleagues and fellow nominees, Chalamet gave one last shoutout before leaving the stage.

This time, to his long-term partner Kylie Jenner.

Watch the video above.

Although Chalamet didn't directly name Jenner, it was clear who he was talking about as the camera panned to her in the audience.

"Thank you to my partner of three years," he began.

"Thank you for our foundation. I love you. I couldn't do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."

Sat in the audience, Jenner could be seen mouthing "I love you" in response to the sweet shoutout. 

This marks the first time the pair has spoken about their relationship on a public stage, with the couple often choosing to keep their relationship private. 

Rumours Chalamet and Jenner were dating began back in January 2023 when they were spotted chatting at Paris Fashion Week.

Several US outlets began to report on quotes from anonymous sources, claiming that Chalamet and Kylie were an official item but were keeping it lowkey.

The first sighting of them as a couple came in September 2023, when they attended a Beyoncé concert in September 2023, where Chalamet was seen with his arms wrapped around Jenner. 

The pair attended several events together over the years; however, they didn't make their red carpet debut until May 7, 2025 at the 70th David di Donatello Awards in Rome

The pair have mostly chosen to keep their relationship out of the spotlight, making headlines around the world recently when they opted to walk the red carpet together at the Los Angeles premiere of Marty Supreme in matching neon orange looks.
