Eiza González is setting the record straight after a recent social media move sparked headlines.
The “Baby Driver” star raised eyebrows when she liked a photo of her ex, Timothée Chalamet, cozying up with his new girlfriend, Kylie Jenner.
In a new interview with Cosmopolitan, Eiza was asked directly about the moment. Reading the question aloud—“You made headlines for liking a photo of Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner, what really went on between you and Timothée?”—she didn’t shy away from the topic.
“I did like it,” she responded candidly. “They look so cute together, they look so in love, and I’m obsessed with them.”
Despite their brief romantic history, Eiza made it clear there’s no bad blood. “I love Timothée. I think he’s the most talented, sweetest boy, and I’m just so proud to see him thriving and doing well in his career,” she said. “We’re just good friends.”
Old Flames
Their connection dates back to 2020, when the two were spotted on a sun-soaked getaway to Cabo San Lucas, shortly after Timothée’s split from Lily-Rose Depp. At the time, sources told People the pair “looked happy together” and “had the best time” at the luxurious resort.
The two appeared affectionate and playful—images showed them kissing by the pool, hiking, and even enjoying a moment where Timothée serenaded Eiza with a guitar. They flew privately with friends and seemed wrapped up in the heat of a summer fling.
After returning to Los Angeles, they were spotted together a few more times, but by the fall of 2020, the romance had quietly fizzled out. Neither party ever publicly addressed the breakup, and they both moved on without fanfare.
Present Love Affairs
Fast forward to 2025, and Timothée has made his relationship with Kylie Jenner official, walking the red carpet with her in Rome.
The Instagram post featuring their debut turned heads—not just for the couple’s public display, but because Eiza showed support with a simple like.
Fans were surprised by the rare show of kindness from an ex, especially in the age of quiet unfollows and subtle shade. Meanwhile, insiders suggest the couple is keeping things low-key online. A source told the Daily Mail that Kylie avoids posting Timothée to “keep him around,” adding that he’s “madly in love” and focused on his career.
As for Eiza, she’s happily moved on. The actress recently made her relationship with tennis star Grigor Dimitrov public, celebrating his birthday with a heartfelt message on Instagram.
“Happiest bday to the man of my dreams,” she wrote. “You’ve restored so much in me I didn’t think was possible. To the kindest, most thoughtful, and caring man—I admire every inch of the human you are and are becoming. I cannot wait to celebrate many, many more. I love you, G.”
