Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet were back in New York City for a courtside date night on April 29, 2026, less than a week before the Met Gala. The pair watched Chalamet’s New York Knicks first-round playoff game together, were photographed sitting courtside and were filmed holding hands as they entered the arena.
After the game, Jenner and Chalamet were snapped again, this time holding hands in matching dark hoodies as they left 4 Charles Prime Rib in the West Village. The steakhouse dinner capped what was their most recent public outing since they were seen at Coachella weekend 1 earlier in April.
The sighting lands in a city where Jenner has previously said she knows how to disappear. In an August 2024 interview with British Vogue, she said she uses a baseball hat and a mask to move around unnoticed in New York, adding that she had not had anyone notice her there and had been able to get around. Months later, in a November 2024 cover story, she said it was important to keep things to yourself and admitted that making decisions by herself can be tough because the opinion of the whole world can make it harder.
That private streak has made the couple’s public appearances stand out when they do happen. Chalamet has also been openly affectionate, giving Jenner a shout-out in his Critics Choice Awards speech and thanking his “partner of three years,” adding that she was his foundation and that he could not do it without her. The New York outing showed the same relationship dynamic in public: they did not stay hidden, but they did keep the night low-key, moving from basketball to dinner and leaving together.
For now, the answer to whether they were simply passing through New York before fashion’s biggest night is no. Jenner and Chalamet made their most recent public stop a very visible one, and they did it together.
