Three years into their relationship, Chalamet and Kylie's bond is stronger than ever. Close sources say their connection is “refreshing” because Kylie has “never dated anyone like him.”

Kylie also celebrated her partner’s win by responding heartwarmingly to Flender’s post. “So exciting!!!!!!!” she wrote, according to People Magazine.

“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,” he said, as reported by The Blast.

In the crowd, Kylie looked emotional as she watched her partner recognize her. She similarly mouthed “I love you, too” to him.

Following the heartwarming exchange, psychologist Darren Stanton revealed that the couple was “sending a very clear and direct message to the public that the relationship is real, secure, and intentional.” 

Stanton further noted that Kylie and Chalamet weren’t just doing it for the cameras but were in it “for the long haul,” per The Blast.

He speculated that the moment was planned because Kylie is media-trained and not one to make spontaneous declarations publicly. He also added that the move was made to control the narrative of the public. 

The Couple Was Caught In An Uncomfortable Moment

After Chalamet won the Critics’ Choice for Best Actor, he also attended the 2026 Golden Globe Awards with Kylie by his side. Once again, he was honored with an award when he accepted the Best Actor honors for “Marty Supreme.” 

This time, his speech was a stark contrast from what he delivered at the Critics’ Choice. He seemed to hurriedly rush through it, saying, “To my parents and partner, I love you, thank you so much.”

Additionally, Kylie was notably absent at the Golden Globes red carpet at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles, as Chalamet graced the red carpet alone, according to The Blast.

Eagle-eyed fans couldn’t help but notice how odd it was that the duo didn’t grace the carpet together.  Plus, the actor’s hurried thank-you speech seemed to further highlight a seemingly uncomfortable energy between the lovers.
