According to rumors swirling on social media, Timothée Chalamet just might be off the market! Fans are continuing to share photos and videos of the Dune star, 26, hanging out with Victoria’s Secret model Sarah Talabi, 22 at Coachella’s opening weekend.
During The Weeknd and Swedish House Mafia’s set at the music festival, one anonymous fan claimed to see the duo cozying up amid the crowd, as they shared with popular Instagram gossip account, Deuxmoi in a submission. “Timothee Chalamet was dancing with and kissing Victoria’s Secret model Sarah Talabi at Coachella,” the witness alleged while also sharing a photo of the actor and model smiling and dancing together.

The possible couple were also seen standing together on the official Coachella livestream which led Talabi to speak with Page Six about her potential romance with the Oscar nominee. She shared with the publication that this evening was the “greatest night” of her life while appearing to neither confirm or deny whether she hooked up with or is currently dating Chalamet.
“Everyone is asking me if I was kissing Timothée Chalamet at Coachella, and that is a good question,” she said in a statement, “But a great question would be asking our world leaders why the Earth is now losing 1.2 trillion tons of ice each year due to global warming and why climate crisis reform has been completely ineffective.” She then added, “I encourage you to contact your local representatives and ask them that.”

Since then, Talabi confirmed that she did hang out with the Don’t Look Up star while tagging him in her Instagram story along with her sister and another friend; “Had the best time with the best group of people,” she wrote earlier this week.
Another source tipped off Deuxmoi that Talabi, who is also an activist and author, was not the only model Chalamet partied with that evening, sharing that he was also seen with Chantel Jeffries and Cindy Wolf. The owner of the Deuxmoi account then wrote, “I don’t know who Sarah Talabi is but you guys are telling me she isn’t in that pic…bottom line is Timmy hung out with a lot of different women this weekend, just let the kid live.”

Another user sent info to the account, noting that Chalamet also spent time with “a bunch of VS models in the VIP section of Neon Carnival” along with Leonardo DiCaprio, Jared Leto and Tobey Maguire that same night.
Since the footage of her with Chalamet broke the internet, Talabi shared with Page Six in another statement that she has been “receiving death threats and hateful messages from Timothée fans,” and that this is “not OK and they need to stop.” (Agreed!)

While Chalamet himself has yet to comment on the matter or confirm/ deny the rumors, Talabi repeated this week that she is “not ready to make a statement on her relationship status with Timothée,” and again deflected attention and encouraged her followers to “redirect your frustration to the fact that air pollution from fossil fuels cost the world $8 billion every day, not to mention putting human life and planet earth at risk.”
As Talabi continues to stress the importance of climate change research and activism on her social media accounts, Chalamet has kept busy by stopping by other exclusive gatherings this week, notably making an appearance at Burberry’s VIP LA party last night (with everyone from Robert Pattinson to Madonna in attendance) while catching a performance by Erykah Badu.
The Call Me By Your Name icon previously dated Lily-Rose Depp for 18 months from October 2018 to April 2020, was spotted kissing Eiza Gonzalez in June 2020 and also had a high school relationship with Lourdes Leon, Madonna’s daughter, before he rose to fame.
