Timothée Chalamet Ditches Kylie Jenner for Mom at SAG Awards

Timothée Chalamet took the 2025 SAG Awards red carpet by storm—well, sort of—by stepping out solo as he left his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, at home. Instead, it was his mom, Nicole Flender, who had the honor of walking alongside the star of the upcoming Bob Dylan biopic, “A Complete Unknown.” Fashion-wise, Timothée rocked a striking all-leather look paired with a neon green shirt and a bolo tie, proving once again that he’s every bit the style icon. Meanwhile, Nicole matched the occasion in a classic black dress, highlighting that family bonds sometimes shine brighter than those Hollywood romances.
Despite the absence of Kylie, who has been by Timothée’s side throughout this awards season—think Golden Globes, BAFTAs, and even the Berlin Film Festival—this outing allowed for a heartwarming mother-son moment. The couple has been nearly inseparable, sharing sweet moments and even a touch of rare PDA during recent appearances. If you caught them at the Berlin Film Festival around Valentine’s Day, you might have noticed Kylie gently caressing Timothée’s face like he was the last slice of pizza at a party. Adorable, right?
However, Kylie’s desire for privacy is palpable. The beauty mogul, who shares two children with rapper Travis Scott, has emphasized in interviews the importance of keeping certain aspects of her life, like her romance, private. “Privacy is so important to me in life,” she explained to British Vogue, adding that navigating fame from a young age has taught her a thing or two about discretion. Maybe this is all part of a strategic love play—keeping things spicy while maintaining an air of mystery.
The SAG Awards did showcase a slew of star power beyond just Chalamet and his mom. Celebrities such as Ariana Grande, Selena Gomez, and Michelle Yeoh were also decked out in stunning outfits, making for an unforgettable night of fashion and fun. So, while Kylie might not have strutted down the carpet this time, you can bet her impact on Timothée’s red-carpet appearance was felt nonetheless.
