Yes Virginia, There Are Real Couples in Hollywood: The Continuing Story of Jake & Austin

It was over four (4) years and 7 days ago when Jake/Austin fans were blessed with this photo op from New York City:

Of course, there was a chaperone, a distraction.  But with 10 years of history; 10 years of coffee, date night, working out, bicycling and "out and about" photos together plus the fact that we've never seen this "mystery woman" ever again, it's not difficult to realize who the real couple was on this November 9 of 2012.

After 14 years of oops and shush's like:

with the last picture being from March of this year 2016 outside of Bangers in Austin TX, plus this little wonderful gem:

Seeing Austin and Jake together at SXSW in March and seeing that they had had another little girl together late last year tells us that the GyllenNichols family is still going strong.

Are the absent but long-time OMG'ers plus a few of us at Narnia the only ones who are aware of this special relationship between Jake and Austin?  Well, there was the original author of the Toothy Tile/Grey Goose story, Ted Casablanca, but he's too busy selling his art to the Palm Springs masses now.

Hey, how about chownoodle?  Who is chownoodle, you ask? Guess what popped up on October 31 of this year in a Jake post on Just Jared?

Can we get a Boom! from the choir on that one?

BOOM!

Yes, indeed.  Thank you, Harry.

Here's hoping November 9, 2012 will not be the last time Jake and Austin take a professional, PR approved photo op together.  But if it is, we shall just have to remain on watch for those "congras" and Brandon Fuller slips so that we can keep celebrating this somehow-enduring real-life Hollywood love story.
