Timothée Chalamet Biography
Timothée Hal Chalamet was born in New York City, New York, on December 27, 1995. He grew up in Manhattan Plaza in the Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood. He holds dual United States and French citizenship and is bilingual in English and French. Growing up, he spent his summers with his paternal grandparents in Le Chambon-Sur-Lignon, a French village about two hours outside of Lyon.
He attended Columbia University for just one year. He studied cultural anthropology, but he transferred to New York University’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study since the program could be more tailor-made and allow him to work at the same time.
Chalamet’s first professional roles were in commercials and in two horror short films, Sweet Tooth and Clown. He made his television debut in 2009 on an episode of Law & Order. He made his Off-Broadway debut in 2011 in a play called The Tails, portraying a sexually curious 12-year-old in the 1970s. Chalamet then had recurring roles on the series Homeland and Royal Pains. He made his feature film debut in 2014 in Jason Reitman’s Men, Women, & Children. His first, almost mini, breakout role was that of Tom Cooper, the son of Matthew McConaughey’s character, in Interstellar, directed by Christopher Nolan. Interstellar grossed over $700 million worldwide. Chalamet picked up a few roles in smaller films before landing the role of the teenage version of James Franco’s character in The Adderall Diaries by Pamela Romanowsky. In 2015, he was also featured in Love the Coopers as the grandson of Diane Keaton and John Goodman.

Chalamet’s major breakthrough came in 2017 with the release of Luca Guadagnino’s Call Me by Your Name.

The film and its cast were nominated for multiple awards, and Chalamet is the third-youngest person to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor.

Timothée Chalamet Dating History
Chalamet has been dating within Hollywood before he even became a star himself. In 2017, he began dating Lourdes Leon while they attended high school together. This is the same Lourdes whose mother is none other than pop music legend, Madonna. Lourdes said that Timothée was her first boyfriend. It seems like they were only together for about a year, from what we can tell. Currently, Lourdes is working on her music career.
Next, Chalamet met actress Lily-Rose Depp while on set for the Netflix film The King in 2018. They weren’t officially seen together until October 2018. Lily-Rose is the daughter of Hollywood film star Johnny Depp. About a year into their relationship, the couple was photographed sharing kisses on a yacht in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, and some members of the press called it a PR stunt, which Chalamet rejected. Unfortunately, the couple split up around April 2020.
Shortly after his breakup with Lily-Rose, Chalamet was seen on vacation in Cabo San Lucas at the end of June 2020 with Eiza González, the Mexican actress of Baby Driver fame. Once again, Timothée was caught making out with someone in some steamy paparazzi photos. However, his fling with Eiza seems only to have lasted as long as their trip to Cabo. Chalamet might have dated Lily-Rose Depp again afterward, and the couple was first seen together again shopping in New York City in April 2021. Nothing was ever confirmed. In April 2022, Chalamet was seen with Victoria’s Secret model Sarah Talabi enjoying singer The Weeknd’s headlining set at Coachella. However, nothing between the two has ever been confirmed.
