There are a couple of eternally reassuring constants in life: the solar will at all times rise within the east and set within the west, taxes will at all times be due in mid-April (except the DOGE crew succeeds in dismantling what’s left of the federal authorities), and Jeremy Allen White will at all times be caught by the paparazzi carrying big arrays of flowers like an exquisite satyr creating al fresco bouquets to embellish his woodland house.
God prepared, anyway: Is it a tragic referendum on fashionable masculinity that I’m (nonetheless) so charmed by the sight of a rugged Hollywood hunk stopping to understand the small, lovely issues in life?
It’s been an extended and chilly season since we final noticed our favourite The Bear star stockpiling flowers round Valentine’s Day in 2024, however fortunately, he reverted to sort this previous weekend at an LA farmer’s market that I’m very a lot hoping will not be the Atwater one I am going to each Sunday besides this one. (Significantly, if Jeremy Allen White occurred to hit up my native farmer’s market on the at some point I wasn’t there, I’ll rend my clothes.)
And whereas I do love the concept of White merely spoiling himself with a contemporary bunch of sunflowers and different spring blooms as a part of a “self-care Sunday” routine that additionally contains journaling and altering his sheets, I worry I can’t assist however surprise: who’re the flowers for???
I used to be elated to search out out final 12 months that White was allegedly courting his The Bear costar Molly Gordon, partly as a result of the 2 share real chemistry on the present and partly as a result of Gordon has gained my loyalty for all times along with her interpretation of dippy, past-life-accessing music trainer Rebecca-Diane within the 2023 movie Theater Camp; if there’s anybody who deserves to be on the receiving finish of White’s penchant for floral splurges, it’s Molly Gordon! So, sure, clearly White might have been flower-shopping for his mother or his buddy this previous weekend (sure, straight males can and should purchase one another flowers), however I very a lot hope that beautiful bouquet is at present adorning a kitchen desk at Gordon’s home. Welcome again, true romance!
