Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet Fuel 2026 Met Gala Buzz With NYC Sighting
Met Gala week PDA alert: Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet looked loved up in New York City, with video obtained by Us Weekly on Sunday, May 3, showing him waiting by the car door as she stepped out — a cozy pre-gala moment fueling the buzz.
New York pre-Met weekend means celebrity sightings, and Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet are putting in the work. The two were out in Manhattan ahead of the 2026 Met Gala, looking very much like a couple that is not ducking cameras.
The pre-Met stroll (and the outfits)
A video that popped up on Sunday, May 3, shows Chalamet, 30, waiting by a car as Jenner, 28, steps out. They lace fingers and head down the sidewalk. It is New York, so yes, the clothes matter: he is in a blue Adidas zip-up, gray pants, and a black baseball cap; she is in black capri pants with a black top under a trench, slicked-back ponytail, black sunglasses. Minimal effort, maximum effect.
Broadway date night with family in the building
Their destination: a weekend performance of the Broadway show 'The Fear of 13,' which is produced by Kim Kardashian. Kim, 45, and mom Kris Jenner were also spotted rolling up to the theater. So no, this was not a low-key plus-one situation; the family presence was very much there.
Earlier in the week: courtside energy
Just a few days earlier, on Tuesday, April 28, the two were at Madison Square Garden for Knicks vs. Hawks. Between plays, Kylie was seen holding on to Timothee's arm while they cheered from their seats. Nothing subtle about it, in a good way.
Three years in, still mostly private (with one very public moment)
They have been together for about three years now, first linked in April 2023. They keep most of it off the record, but he did make a rare, pretty unmissable nod to her at the 2026 Critics' Choice Awards in January after winning Best Actor for 'Marty Supreme.'
"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."
Not exactly vague.
Where the family fits
On the home front, Chalamet has gotten to know Kylie's kids, Stormi (born 2018) and Aire (born 2022). Kylie shares them with ex Travis Scott; that on-off situation ended for good in 2023. Per a source earlier this year, Kylie waited before introducing Timothee, then eased him in, and now he spends real time with them. The vibe described: the kids think he is fun, and the two of them have a genuine bond.
So, heading into Met Gala Monday, the read here is simple: still together, still low-key-ish, and still showing up for each other — whether it is Broadway, the Garden, or an awards stage.
