Timothée Chalamet didn't hold back in his acceptance speech at the 2026 Critics Choice Awards—and gave an emotional shoutout to his girlfriendKylie Jenner.
The 30-year-old Marty Supreme actor took home the award for Best Actor during the ceremony on Sunday evening (Jan. 4) held at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, Calif. While he and Jenner skipped the red carpet, they sat side-by-side throughout the event.
The extremely private couple even shared a special moment when it was announced that Chalamet had won, embracing and giving one another a kiss in front of the cameras.

Then, while on stage, Chalamet thanked Jenner and acknowledged their longstanding relationship.
"And lastly, I'll just say, thank you to my partner of three years. Thank you for our foundation. I love you," Chalamet said while cameras panned to Jenner mouthing "I love you" in the audience.
The actor continued, "I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
The meaningful message marks one of the first times Chalamet has publicly spoken out about their relationship. While they do not often comment on their romance, Jenner has been supportive of of Chalamet during his Marty Supreme press tour, appearing alongside him on the red carpet.
Most recently, Chalamet was asked about his relationship with Jenner during an in-depth interview with Vogue but politely declined to comment.
"I don't say that with any fear, I just don't have anything to say," he told the outlet at the time. When later asked about fatherhood, he admitted that it "could be on the radar."
Chalamet and Jenner have been linked since 2023 and while they've faced their fair share of split rumors, it's clear they're now stronger than ever.
