While riding rented Citi Bikes, the couple showed more explicit public affection—Jenner wrapped her arms around Chalamet’s shoulders at a street crossing and Chalamet reciprocated by placing a hand on her bare lower back while he looked at his phone; the report also says Jenner often followed Chalamet’s lead through the bike lanes.

Ahead of the Knicks celebration, PEOPLE reports that Jenner had already attended NBA Finals action with Chalamet—most notably Game 4—where he wore an oversized Chrome Hearts denim jacket with bright orange crosses and matching jeans paired with Timberlands, while she matched him in straight-leg jeans with Chrome Hearts crosses, a white tank top, and a denim jacket she carried.

One report ties their relationship timeline to industry milestones: it says the couple made their romance official at the Golden Globe Awards last year, and that Jenner joined Chalamet for his “Marty Supreme” tour—cheering him through awards season—and notes he was considered a favorite for Best Actor before losing to Michael B. Jordan for “Sinners.”

The same outlet also links the outing to Kardashian-Jenner family news: it says Jenner’s sister Kim Kardashian recently posted video from a bike ride with Lewis Hamilton that made headlines (and went “Instagram official”), ending with Kardashian nearly crashing into Hamilton while trying to get into frame.
Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet took to the streets of Manhattan on June 17, riding rented Citi Bikes and turning heads with open displays of affection. At one street crossing, Jenner wrapped her arms around Chalamet's shoulders. He responded by placing a hand on her bare lower back — a moment captured by onlookers and quickly shared online, according to The Times of India and Who What Wear.
The timing was no coincidence. The outing came one day before the New York Knicks' victory parade — the franchise's first championship celebration since 1973. Chalamet, a lifelong Knicks fan who was filmed celebrating in the team's locker room after their June 13 Game 5 win over the San Antonio Spurs, is widely expected to march in the Canyon of Heroes on June 18, per Newsweek.
From Citi Bikes to Courtside: The NYC Outing in Detail
The couple kept things casual on their ride through Manhattan. Jenner often followed Chalamet's lead through the bike lanes, according to Who What Wear. Their comfort with each other stood out to fans online, who praised what many called their "adorable chemistry." Comments flooded social media describing it as "the kind of love that opens you up to new things," per The Times of India.
The bike ride capped off weeks of high-profile appearances together. On June 10, the pair attended NBA Finals Game 4 in matching custom Chrome Hearts denim. Chalamet wore an oversized denim jacket with bright orange crosses and matching jeans paired with Timberlands. Jenner matched him in straight-leg jeans with Chrome Hearts crosses and a white tank top, according to ELLE. The Knicks won that night, moving within one game of the title.
Chrome Hearts and $18,000 Jeans: The Couple's Shared Fashion Strategy
Chrome Hearts has become the unofficial uniform of their relationship. Laurie Lynn Stark, president of the brand, has worked closely with Chalamet's styling team to build custom looks. She has described Chalamet as a "muse" for the brand, per Little Pink Magazine. Industry insiders say Jenner pushed Chalamet away from off-the-rack luxury toward long, bespoke projects with the Starks.
The cultural impact has been real. Secondary market prices for custom Chrome Hearts jeans similar to those worn by the couple have surpassed $18,000 per pair, according to Little Pink Magazine. Style writers at GQ and Marie Claire have called their Finals looks a "calculated masterclass in modern courtside dressing," arguing that their outfits turned fan culture into high-fashion influence.
Awards Season, the Oscars Upset, and a Public Romance Solidified
The couple's relationship went public in a big way at the Golden Globe Awards in January 2025, per The Times of India. Since then, Jenner has stayed close through Chalamet's biggest professional moments. She joined him on the "Marty Supreme" tour — an A24 campaign Newsweek called "internet-breaking" — and cheered him through the full awards season run.
Chalamet won Best Actor at the Critics Choice Awards on January 5, 2026, publicly thanking Jenner in his speech, per Men's Journal. But he lost the Oscar on March 15 to Michael B. Jordan for "Sinners" after being considered the heavy favorite. Rather than retreating, Chalamet shifted his energy to the Knicks — skipping the Met Gala entirely to attend Eastern Conference playoff games, according to Newsweek.
The Kardashian-Jenner Bike Trend and a Championship Parade Ahead
Jenner's Citi Bike outing drew comparisons to her sister Kim Kardashian's recent ride with Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton. That ride went viral after Kardashian nearly crashed into Hamilton while trying to get into frame. The moment served as Hamilton and Kardashian's "Instagram official" moment, per Harper's BAZAAR. Jenner's outing, by contrast, was framed as the more settled, low-key version of the same trend.
Now, attention shifts to June 18. The Knicks' victory parade begins at 10:00 AM at the Canyon of Heroes in Lower Manhattan — the 210th official ticker-tape parade in city history and the first for the Knicks since 1973, per CBS News. The team ended a 53-year championship drought by beating the Spurs 94-90 in Game 5. Chalamet, who celebrated in the locker room after the win, is widely expected to be part of the festivities.
