Gwyneth Paltrow and boyfriend Brad Falchuk have been going strong for a few years, now. Their Halloween costumes this year were actually good and they make a genuinely cute couple.
Well, they’re taking things to the next level.
One might say that the two of them are “consciously coupling.”
Well … Gwyneth might say that, anyway, after her infamous “consciously uncoupling” breakup line when she and Chris Martin split.
But there’s some very good news in Gwyneth’s personal life.
Gwyneth is an actress. She’s a beautiful woman. She also happens to own a magazine that tells women to shove rocks up their vaginas for better sex.
Brad Falchuk is perhaps a little less well-known, but his name is probably familiar at the very least.
He’s been a co-creator and/or writer on just about every big Ryan Murphy project for a while now, from Glee to Scream Queens to American Horror Story.
(Falchuk is a good-looking guy and you’d think that he’d be an actor, but half of the pictures of him make him look alarmed and bewildered. Some people do their best work off of the screen)
The two met back in 2014 on the set of Glee.
They didn’t go public with their relationship until 2015. They attended the screening of Scream Queens together, openly dating, and even posted a couples selfie to Instagram.
Well, now they’re doing much more than just going public.
Us Weekly reports that multiple sources have confirmed to them that Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Falchuk are engaged.
One of Us‘ insiders says that the couple has been discussing the possibility of engagement for over a year.
“They both knew it would happen, but it wasn’t a big thing to them because they were both in long marriages before. There wasn’t a rush”
In fact, both Gwyneth and Brad have two children, each, from previous marriages.
They knew that they had more than just themselves to consider. It’s good that they took their time.
Of course, Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Falchuk haven’t officially announced their engagement just yet.
The fact that the news has broken might rush things along a little, but it sounds like Gwyneth has a plan.
The couple has reportedly already taken engagement photos, and Gwyneth plans to put them up on her website for the big announcement.
With Gwyneth, there’s no way of knowing when “the right time” might be. It might be after they’ve told all family members. It might be based on, like, quasi-spiritual “medical” advice.
And speaking of the load of Goop that Gwyneth likes to share, let’s remember what Brad Falchuk is marrying into.
Gwyneth has been something of a controversial figure in recent years.
And while Gwyneth thinks that people only hate her because she’s a woman, we have to say that there’s more than misogyny at work.
It’s … well, some people think that she’s about as out-of-touch with the real world as Mitt Romney or Lucille Bluth.
She also, again, puts out a newsletter called Goop that encourages practices that are not recommended by doctors.
Like, again, stuffing a rock up your vagina to allegedly improve your sex life.
(Fair warning, rocks are porous and this could lead to an infection)
But if Brad Falchuk’s willing to accept the good with the bad, then good for the two of them.
