Flender took to Instagram to share a video of her TV screen showing him winning the award, kissing his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, and getting up on stage to make his acceptance speech, which later went viral. "My son just won the Critics' Choice Award for best actor!!," she proudly wrote in the caption.
In the comments was Kris Jenner, who wrote, "So exciting!!!!!!!" with a congratulatory emoji, heart, clapping emoji, and star-eyed emoji.
Chalamet beat Michael B. Jordan, Joel Edgerton, Leonardo DiCaprio, Wagner Moura, and Ethan Hawke for the award. He's been unstoppable this season, later winning Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy at the Golden Globes.
Who is his mom?
Flender was an actor and Broadway dancer in New York, which is where she met Timothée's dad, Marc, who is a journalist. She is now a proud real estate agent. They are also the parents of his older sister, Pauline.

While she skipped the Golden Globes red carpet, with Marty Supreme, they walked it at the premiere, and he's thanked her in his speeches, referring to her as his partner of three years, and even rapped about her billionaire status in a song.
It came during a time of breakup rumors and speculations surrounding their relationship. While they never addressed it directly, their appearances have been doing all the talking.
Plus, Timothée has officially soft-launched the makeup mogul on Instagram. This week, he shared a carousel of photos from the Golden Globes that were likely taken by Kylie. She was spotted with a film camera, capturing moments of the night. The first slide included a picture of both their hands on the award, with Timothée's green eyes looking up at the camera.
Next stop is the Oscars, where it is expected that he will receive another nomination. The announcement will come next week, on January 22, 2026. For now, we have the Shortlist.
Kylie made her first appearance at the Academy Awards in 2025 when he was nominated for A Complete Unknown, but she skipped the carpet. We will have to wait and see if she joins him on the carpet this time.
