After nearly two years of a low-profile relationship, Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet made their official red carpet debut as a couple at the 70th David di Donatello Awards in Rome. The event, often referred to as Italy’s equivalent of the Oscars, marked a significant milestone in their relationship, which began in April 2023.
Chalamet, 29, was honored with the David for Cinematic Excellence, recognizing his performances in “A Complete Unknown,” where he portrays Bob Dylan, and “Dune: Part Two.” Jenner, 27, accompanied him, and the couple’s coordinated all-black ensembles drew attention. Chalamet wore a black velvet double-breasted suit adorned with a white floral brooch, while Jenner stunned in a floor-length black Schiaparelli gown featuring a plunging neckline and crystal embellishments.
The couple displayed affection on the red carpet, holding hands and embracing, although they stopped short of kissing. Their appearance followed speculation of a debut at the Met Gala just days earlier, where Jenner attended solo while Chalamet watched the NBA playoffs at home.
Since being linked during Paris Fashion Week in 2023, Jenner and Chalamet have gradually become more public, attending events like the US Open and Beyoncé’s Renaissance tour together. Their red carpet debut in Rome solidifies their status as a couple in the public eye.
The David di Donatello Awards ceremony was held at Cinecittà Studios, a historic film studio in Rome. Chalamet’s recognition at the event underscores his growing influence in international cinema.
While the couple has kept their relationship relatively private, their appearance at the awards ceremony indicates a willingness to share more of their personal lives with the public. Fans and media alike will undoubtedly be watching for their next public appearance.
