Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet became ‘public attention’ as they were stealing sweet kisses and holding hands throughout this year’s Academy Awards ceremony.
However, the duo clearly weren’t so comfortable when his ex-girlfriend, Lily-Rose Depp, took to the stage to present Best Costume Design, with the loved-up couple nowhere to be seen.
They appeared to take leave from their seats as Depp, 25, joined a slew of actresses to present the award to Wicked’s Paul Tazewell inside LA’s celebrity-packed Dolby Theatre on Sunday night.
Minutes before, Chalamet, 29, wearing a pastel yellow suit, was seen leading Jenner, 27, away hand-in-hand during a commercial break.
When Tazewell made his way up to the stage, the camera panned the front row, with the couple no longer in their seats.
The video was posted on a Chalamet fan account on TikTok and shared by eagle-eyed viewers who questioned where they had gone.
One person on Reddit wrote: ‘Also talk about Timothee and Kylie not being in their seats when Lily had to give her speech was insane.’
Another added: ‘Timmy, what the heck!?!?!? I thought you and Lily are “good friends” and in “good terms”???
Others branded the apparent move ‘embarrassing and humiliating,’ with one commenting: ‘I NOTICED THIS! So pathetic. Very immature. Clearly he still thinks about her if he went out of his way to not be in the same area as her.’
But some appeared to defend the couple, with one writing: ‘I mean that’s kind of smart. They are avoiding the camera cutting to them when she’s on stage.’
Depp famously dated best actor nominee Chalamet for around two years after they played love interests in David Michôd’s 2019 historical epic The King.
