As a professional minder of other people’s business, one couple I’ve been dying to know more about is Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner.

They’ve been linked for almost two years (since April 2023, to be exact) but they’re super private people, choosing to keep the intimate details of their relationship to themselves.
In March, Kylie dodged a question about him to The New York Times, saying, “I just don’t want to talk about personal things.”
And last night at the Palm Springs International Film Awards, Timothée expertly avoided a question about her.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Timothée, who received the Chairman Award for his performance in A Complete Unknown, was asked how it felt to have Kylie there to support him. “You have a lot of supporters in here,” the reporter asked. “I know you also brought your partner in crime, Kylie, here, too. What’s it like to have her supporting you on a night like this?”

“It’s a great feeling to be in a room with so much love and so many great peers, and people that are fantastic,” Timothée said, not directly addressing Kylie.

“I like seeing the new wave and the new generation here,” he continued. “I also like seeing everyone who’s been holding it down [for] decades plus.”

Knowing how they value privacy, people were impressed with how he answered the question.

Taking to Reddit, one person wrote, “I love how interviews keep trying to ask Kylie and Timothee about each other, looking for tea, and they pay those questions absolute dust 😂. They said STAY out they business! 😂”
“PR training come through!” commented another. “As he should, one question opens the gate to more, that’s none of their business tbh.”
“He was holding back his smile when he mentioned her name,” another observed, “he loves that shit.”
