Timothée Chalamet thanks girlfriend Kylie Jenner as he wins Best Actor at Golden Globes
Chalamet and Jenner have been in a relationship for three years, the Dune actor said.
Timothée Chalamet thanked girlfriend Kylie Jenner in his Golden Globes acceptance speech. He was awarded the best actor in a drama film for his depiction of a table tennis champion in the sports film Marty Supreme.
The Golden Globe award is the star’s first and comes only a week after he took home the Critics Choice award, also for Marty Supreme.
The 30-year-old star thanked the cast and crew as he accepted the accolade, presented by Jennifer Lopez.
“This category is stacked. I look up to all of you, thank you,” he said to the crowd. “To [my director] Josh Safdie, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for this role. Thank you for believing in me. Thank you for this portrait, for your mind, for your worldview.”
The speech then took a sentimental turn, with the 30-year-old star saying: “My dad instilled in me a spirit of gratitude growing up, always be grateful for what you have.
“It’s allowed me to leave this ceremony in the past empty-handed, my head held high, grateful just to be here. But I would be lying if those moments didn’t make this moment that much sweeter.”
He ended on: “For my parents, for my partner, I love you. Thank you so much,” he concluded.
Chalamet’s reference to Jenner comes hot on the heels of the Critics’ Choice awards, when he called the reality star his “foundation” in his acceptance speech. He said: “I’ll just say 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.”
Jenner attended the ceremony with Chalamet but did not walk the red carpet.
The pair were captured on video inside the ballroom at the Beverly Hilton chatting to other people on their table.
Footage also showed Jennifer Lawrence, who is a vocal fan of the Kardashians, stopping by the table to speak to Jenner.
Lawrence could be seen leaning down to speak animatedly to Jenner at length, before turning to Safdie.
The actress is a reality TV super fan and even made a brief cameo on the Kardashians’ E! reality show, popping up on a FaceTime with Kris Jenner.
