Kylie Skips NBA Finals for Turks and Caicos Glow-Up While Timothée Cheers Alone

Sometimes you have to pick your priorities, and for Kylie Jenner, a Kylie Cosmetics retreat in Turks and Caicos beat courtside seats at Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday, June 3.

The 28-year-old beauty mogul was supposed to be Timothée Chalamet’s plus-one for the New York Knicks vs. San Antonio Spurs matchup, but instead she spent the evening soaking up Caribbean sun and serving swimwear realness on Instagram. Her camo bikini—a geometric mix of green, brown, black and white with a triangle top and thong bottoms—became the evening’s real MVP, complete with the caption“I wanna love yaaaa.”Even her celebrity crew got in on the ribbing, with Hailey Bieber and others dropping Knicks emojis in the comments as if to say,“Girl, the game is happening without you.”

Here’s the thing: Kylie’s been a consistent Knicks presence. She’s hit multiple games this season, including Game 4 of the NBA Eastern Conference Finals against the Cleveland Cavaliers, where she rocked an orange-and-blue Knicks tee. When she can’t make it in person, she still shows up for her man—literally commenting“Daddy”on a video of Chalamet debuting a fresh mustache and haircut while walking into Madison Square Garden. She’s even reposted *Sex and the City* clips about Knicks obsession, proving she’s leaning into the basketball girlfriend era with both feet (when she’s not in the Caribbean, anyway).

And look, nobody’s mad about it. Jenner and Chalamet have been rock solid since they started dating in 2023 and went public at Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour in Los Angeles that September. They’ve been each other’s plus-ones ever since—Golden Globes, Critics Choice Awards, Oscars, movie premieres, you name it. A source told *Us Weekly* back in March that they’re“very serious and committed,”with a rhythm that just works. After he thanked her in an acceptance speech at the Critics Choice Awards, they had“real conversations about their future and what they both want.”

So missing one game for a cosmetics trip? That’s barely a blip. The real story is how a power couple actually seems to get it—supporting each other’s hustle while pursuing their own. Kylie’s got a beauty empire to run. Timothée’s got a basketball addiction. They make it work, even when they’re on different continents. Sometimes that’s what partnership looks like in 2026.
