Susan Boyle reveals heartwarming 'hero' jacket gift from Timothée Chalamet
Susan Boylehas revealed Timothée Chalamet sent her an adorable gift. Earlier this month, the nation was left blown away when Chalamet, 29, revealed he was a huge fan of the 64-year-old operatic pop singer.
The news also came as a shock to Susan, who found fame on Britain's Got Talent in 2009. But now, Timothée, who shot to global recognition after taking on the role of Elio Perlman in Luca Guadagnino's coming-of-age film, Call Me By Your Name, has honoured Susan with a one-of-a-kind gift.
New York-born Chalamet is currently promoting his latest movie, Marty Supreme, in which he plays the title role and has been giving out jackets decorated with the movie's name to people he believes are true greats. And one of those is Susan.

"Thanks so much for the kind words once again, Timothée," Susan said, reports the BBC. She added: "All the very best for the film, looking forward to seeing it on Boxing Day and thanks for the jacket, it fits like a glove!"
Fans have since reacted on social media, with one writing: "Susan Boyle receives the MARTY SUPREME jacket." A second penned: "This is so cute." "He is so adorable," commented a third. Meanwhile, a fourth went on to add: "My queen, my everything, you deserve this and more!"
"I'm crying he's knighting ppl," said another. But a sixth commented: "Susan Boyle because she dreamt bigger than all of us!" Timothée had previously revealed that Susan's performance of I Dreamed A Dream from Les Misérables at her Britain's Got Talent audition was fascinating.
While promoting Marty Supreme, during an appearance on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, he was asked who his all-time greats were. He said Susan, alongside Sir David and Lady Victoria Beckham. "She dreamt big – she dreamt bigger than all of us," Timothée said.
He added: "Who wasn't moved by that? I remember that like it was yesterday. That was like the advent of YouTube, you know?" Shortly after the unexpected revelation, Susan took to social media to praise Timothée for his kind words. Writing on Facebook, she said: "This has been so incredibly touching to read. I'm very flattered, Timothée.
"Those early days were quite something, and to know that moment meant something to you all these years on truly humbles me. We all start somewhere, with a dream and a bit of hope, don’t we? We should all dream big!
"I wish you every success as you continue to dream your own dream. Thank you for your kindness and for remembering that moment so fondly. With love, Susan." Despite Susan's undeniable talent, the singer finished the ITV talent competition in second place, with dance team Diversity taking the top spot.
Despite this, she has gone on to become one of the UK's biggest musicians. Her debut album, I Dreamed a Dream (2009), became one of the best-selling albums of the 21st century. It sold over ten million copies across the globe and was one of the best-selling albums internationally in the same year.
She also became the first female artist with three successive albums debuting at the top of the charts in the UK, in under two years.
