Kelly Rutherford & Matthew Settle Dating? Possible Real-Life Lily & Rufus

Lily and Rufus may not have ended up together at the conclusion of Gossip Girl, but that doesn’t mean that their story’s over. Their off-screen alter egos — Kelly and Matthew — may be endgame in real-life.

Seemingly out of nowhere, Gossip Girl fans started to realize that Kelly and Matthew might be an item. However, if you take a look at Matthew and Kelly’s Instagram, they’re pretty fond of each other. Here’s what fans are saying on Twitter:

Most recently, Matthew posted a photo of him and Kelly with the caption, “Happy Valentines.” So cute! He’s even got onto their couple name — Settleford.

‘Gossip Girl’ Reunion: Are Chuck & Blair In?

Since the series ended in 2012, everyone’s been wondering when the cast will reunite. Seriously, how are we even living without Chuck and Blair in our lives? 

HollywoodLife.com spoke to Ed Westwick in Dec.2014, and he dished on the reunion possibility. “I think we enjoyed ourselves on what we did, but now everyone’s off doing their own thing,” Ed told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “We’re all very happy for one another.”

Rats! Well, is Leighton Meester in? Sadly, that’s a no. Our very own Blair Waldorf said that a reunion is not in the works.

Even though we’re not getting the reunion that we want, we’ll just bask in the glory of Kelly and Matthew! Lily and Rufus forever!

HollywoodLifers, do you think Kelly and Matthew are dating? Do you ship Lily and Rufus in real life? Let us know!
