Who is Timothée Chalamet dating?

Rumours romantically linking Timothée to Madonna's daughter Lourdes Leon emerged in 2013.

It's unknown why the pair, who both attended LaGuardia High School, decided to cool things off, yet they do remain good friends.

Then in 2018 rumours swirled that Timothée had begun dating Lily-Rose Depp after they were spotted getting close while out together in New York.

It's believed they dated for two years, before calling it quits in 2020.

Since then he has been linked to Saoirse Ronan and Eiza González.

In March 2021, it was then reported he had got back together with Lily - but this is yet to be confirmed.
