Thirty Days of Toothy Tile, Grey Goose and the Baby Tiles
Day 12
June is considered the most popular month for weddings and for Jake Gyllenhaal, it is believed that June 16th just might be the day that he and Austin Nichols tied the knot. For those who remember the five month window of opportunity provided by a Judge in California who struck down California's ban on gay marriage on May 15, 2008, the date seems to be a likely one. Particularly, given Jake's overseas schedule to shoot Prince of Persia, which began immediately after that date and pretty much spanned the rest of the year until Proposition 8 overturned the ruling on November 4th and reinstated the ban on same sex nuptials. The details of this theory are best explored on another post, but for now the context is important to point out.
In June 2009, still very much bearding with Reese Witherspoon and pretty much attached at the hip, Jake mysteriously disappeared from the spotlight of the paparazzi, oddly resurfacing at the Saint Ouen Flea Market, just outside of Paris, France on June 14th. He was photographed with his sister and brother-in-law, apparently third wheeling it on a adult family vacation. Adult, because as you can see the Sarsgaard daughter, did not appear in any photographs nor was she mentioned in the articles that appeared at the time. The absence was not so strange when considering that the quick trip from New York to Paris was actually a working excursion, scheduled to promote Maggie's new film, Sherry Baby.
Jake really looks thrilled here, doesn't he? A little bored, perhaps?
How surprised everyone was when a random mother blogger innocently posted an entry about her family's trip to Princess Diana Memorial Park in Kensington Park, London, England on, of all days, Tuesday, June 16th. The day it is believed that Jake and Austin were married in 2008 after gay marriage became legal in California for about 5 months.
An excerpt from her post:
Okay, let's cut to the chase:
We hung out at the park with Jake Gyllenhaal today. Erin did you hear me? An Oscar-winning Celebrity. And I don't just have a story. I have PROOF, sistah. Proof. Check it.
Thank goodness I had kids to fake pose right under the pirate ship playground where Mr. Gyllenhaal was....It's totally him baby....When I got my camera out, he flinched...He was just a little too aware of a camera.... source
Although Jake might have been pleased that she incorrectly called him an Oscar-winning celebrity, I am sure he was not so happy with the candid photographic evidence she provided of his odd appearance at a children's playground in London. Particularly, since the cover story was that he was taking a family vacation in Paris with Maggie and Peter.
We see you there Jakey, you little Scallywag. Oh, and by the way within a week, as was mentioned in the post about Paul Rudd in Washington, D.C. on Day 10, Jake was already back in America, immediately taking a pap walk with a gazillion photos of him and Reese, hand and hand. Ever the happy "couple."
Sounds like someone might have been caught with his cute little pirate booty exposed across the pond. Hanging out where he was definitely not supposed to be seen. Good thing he had that large pirate ship to hide behind that day or else we might have seen the full picture of what was really going on. Better yet, we might have seen who was actually accompanying him to that children's playground. "The first tip off was the hat. I was like, dude, who wears a hat like that to the park with their kid?"
If that kind of reveal had happened, who knows what Jake's management team might have had him do as repentance for his London indiscretion. A public engagement, perhaps?
I totally cringe at the thought! Or, would a more appropriate phrase be, "Shiver me timbers," instead?

Gee, I wonder who might have been on the other side of that ship?
