Kylie Jenner is literally showing up for boyfriend Timothée Chalamet during his awards season run. Yesterday, the reality star joined her partner at the Santa Barbara Film Festival. Although Jenner did not pose on the red carpet, she and Chalamet were photographed being cuddly in the crowd. Jenner had on a sleeveless black look, as seen above. Chalamet wore the leather jacket he was carrying in his red carpet photos.
They were also filmed sitting together in the auditorium:
The mostly private couple has had a series of public dates during the new year. On January 5, Jenner joined her partner inside the Golden Globes. Shortly after, she met up with Chalamet in Paris while he was in town for the French premiere of A Complete Unknown. And at the end of January, Jenner went to New York to cheer on the actor as he hosted Saturday Night Live.
Jenner enjoys being there for Chalamet’s milestones, albeit from a distance. On January 30, a source told Us Weekly that the beauty entrepreneur “loves being on the sidelines” at his big events. “She loves that he’s in the spotlight more than her. It’s been a breath of fresh air.”
Nearly two years into dating, Chalamet and Jenner aren’t about to get engaged. But this romance has “a very different relationship dynamic than what Kylie is used to,” the source said. “[It’s] opened her eyes to the more artistic side of the industry.”
While Jenner has attended more events with her partner lately, she hasn’t spoken about him in interviews. Jenner told ELLE in our November issue, “I think it’s important to keep things to yourself. It’s hard for me to make a decision by myself sometimes, so the opinion of the whole world…it can be tough.”
