What Timothée's ex really thinks of his new relationship
The Baby Driver star gave a surprising response when asked about Chalamet's new relationship during Cosmopolitan's Cheap Shots segment.
González read the question card she was given aloud: 'You made headlines for liking a photo of Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner, what really went on between you and Timothée?'
Instead of choosing to take a shot, the 35-year-old decided to answer.
'I did like it, they look so cute together, they look so in love and cute and I'm obsessed with them and I love Timmy,' she said. Eiza González during the 82nd annual Golden Globes on January 5, 2025, in Beverly Hills, California. Credit: Michael Buckner/GG2025 / Penske Media via Getty Images
González and Chalamet had a romantic fling back in June 2020, when they were spotted kissing in Cabo by paparazzi.
But, she kept the details of their tryst under wraps and instead heaped praise on his career success.
'I think he is the most talented, sweetest boy and I'm just so proud to see him thriving and doing great in his career, González continued.
'We're just good friends. I have nothing but amazing things to say about him.'
González's kind-hearted words come just weeks after the headline-making couple made their red carpet debut at the 70th David Di Donatello awards. Timothee Chalamet and Kylie Jenner at the 70th David Di Donatello. Credit: Vittorio Zunino Celotto / Getty Images
Jenner has accompanied her new beau to countless events in recent months but, the awards ceremony in Rome on May 8, was the first time the loved-up duo entered an event hand-in-hand.
She wore a black Schiaparelli gown and Chalamet wore a black velvet Tom Ford suit as they posed affectionately for photographs.
Chalamet received the award for Cinematic Excellence following his recent roles in the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown, as well as Dune: Part Two.

Food Bites: the new-look Mad Poet, a birria taco cafe opens
Mad Poet on Newcastle's Hunter Street has a new look and a new menu. Red velvet drapes, hanging plants, classic cocktails, a vinyl turntable on the bar ... owner Dylan Oakes has been busy. Mad Poet, which opened early in 2024 as a "listening bar", has been relaunched as a New York dive bar. It's a bit quirky, a bit grungey, and open to all. "We've made it more accessible. We're becoming more of a before-and-after venue for gigs at the Civic and NEX," Dylan said. "There's more of a party vibe at the venue. We're playing sports and retro concerts on the TV, we've got a projector, we're serving hot dogs, nachos and tacos until midnight. "It's been much busier, the reception has been great. It's more of a small party venue now, rather than the high-end venue I was doing." What music is played depends on the crowd on any given night. Dylan has 3000 or so vinyl records to choose from. "We're adapting to how our Midtown precinct is evolving, and how the late-night economy is taking shape, which is why we're serving food until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, and have a DJ spinning on the bar on those nights," Dylan said. "We've got a few things in the pipeline, a few parties planned, and we hope to offer alfresco dining on the footpath come summer." And if you're an NSW nurse, head to Mad Poet for a drink and a feed. You get a 10 per cent discount. Mad Poet is open Thursday to Saturday, 5pm to 1am, at 537 Hunter Street, Newcastle West. Birria tacos are on the menu at the newly opened Liam's Coffee and Tacos at Glendale City Centre. For those not in the know, birria tacos are made with goat and/or beef meat that is slow-cooked in a flavoursome Mexican broth (or consomme), shredded, and served in a taco shell with chopped onions, coriander and a wedge of lime. It's a popular dish in Sharleen Slater's household ... so much so that she decided to open a cafe. "I decided to make the tacos in a cafe because I was making them at home but I could not buy them anywhere in Newcastle - also, I am vegetarian and there is no way I could find that option here in Newcastle either," Sharleen, who moved to Newcastle from Taree in 2019, said. "So I decided, after some encouragement, to open the cafe." Liam's Coffee and Tacos has a simple, modern aesthetic and is located next to the children's playground at Glendale City Centre. There were several parents with prams dining in when I visited. You can order a children's nachos meal, flavoured milk, babycinos and juices. Sharleen says the corn cups, cheese quesadillas and the mac and cheese are also popular with kids. "We use a mix of beef and goat meat in our birria, the tortilla is a corn tortilla and it is dipped in the consomme, then grilled with the meat added, and folded in half," Sharleen said. "Some people are sceptical to try the tacos because they contain goat. We have an add-on section in our menu and we try to encourage customers to try the birria meat on the dish they are most comfortable with, whether it's tacos or fries. "We also have a birria ramen, and the option of choosing plant-based Impossible Foods meat. "For breakfast we have avocado toast, eggs on toast with hollandaise sauce, breakfast tacos and breakfast burritos. We serve Darks Coffee and an organic matcha imported from Japan. The iced matcha latte is very popular." Sharleen also makes a range of sweet treats on site, the most popular being the carrot cake. "It gets rave reviews and it's hard to keep in stock. Banana bread, mini cupcakes and chocolate chip cookies are also very popular choices," she said. Regular cafe items such as toasties are also available. And the name? Liam's is named after Sharleen's brother, Liam, who tragically died in 2020 at the age of 14 as a result of an accident. Pop in to Liam's Coffee and Tacos when you are next shopping at Glendale. The menu is budget-friendly and flavoursome, and it's great to see a local having a go. You can dine in at Liam's, order online at for pick-up, or order via Uber Eats. It's open until 9pm on Thursdays, and for breakfast and lunch daily from 9am to 4pm (10am to 4pm on Sundays). Newcastle's Thermidor Brasserie got a mention on Channel 9's Tipping Point last week. A contestant, Emily, was asked the question: "a classic French seafood dish is .... lobster humidor, lobster thermidor or lobster toreador?" Emily told host Todd Woodbridge that there was a "seafood restaurant in Newcastle called Thermidor and they specialise in shellfish". She chose "thermidor" and was correct. Todd said the restaurant owed Emily a free dinner - and Thermidor Brasserie's owners Josh and Jess Gregory are only too happy to oblige. Emily, have you claimed your dinner yet? Also, readers, have you tried Thermidor Brasserie's Sunday brunch menu yet? Oyster Bloody Marys, Creme Brulee Pancake, Slipper Lobster Benedict, Fraser Isle Spanner Crab Omelette, Tea & Tonic, a Recovery Margarita, mimosas ... the list goes on. If not, why not?

Don't miss the 31-ingredient family-inspired sauce at this Mexican spot in Newtown
If the degree of difficulty wasn't already high, Perera has expanded her grandmother's creation into a 31-ingredient recipe: adding macadamias to the many nuts (pecans, almonds, pine) that are roasted and blended for the sauce, while staying true to the mole's source code. Anise seeds, cinnamon, chillies and sultanas offer extra character, and toasted tortillas are blitzed through to give the sauce more consistency. As it reduces for eight hours, the liquid requires constant stirring to prevent it becoming a pot-ruining disaster. The sauce typically flavours a chicken taco, but like many Olotl dishes, it's also available in vegetarian form. I've tasted it in a tortilla with shreds of shiitake mushrooms: it's earthy, rustic and the most understated dish on Olotl's menu, which plays with the nuances of Mexican cuisine. Yes, you'll find chipotle and jalapenos on the ingredients list, but Olotl isn't here to capsize you with chilli. It uses peppers in a thoughtful way, rather than a weaponised dare that requires warning systems. Salsa verde in the mushroom taco, for instance, achieves brilliant lift-off from the zingy vibrancy of jalapenos, lime and coriander, while beef birria has a five-chilli buzz that coexists happily with spices, garlic and onion – all deserve equal billing when delivering the brisket-stuffed taco's savoury punch. The bestselling birria has undergone identity changes since Olotl first served it at Tramsheds. There's slow-cooked beef instead of pungent goat, and the melted cheese and dipping broth that typically accessorise this Insta-famous taco are gone. They found health-conscious locals preferred it with black beans (even though her teenage son Alexander campaigned for the cheesy version that ruled social media).
