Interesting, made up bullshit or an attempt at a rescue mission.

If this gets picked up I reckon we'll see them doing something extra couply with 24 hours.

Donatellalymanmoss · 11/07/2016 20:47

Apparently LuLu was at the 4th July bash but the only evidence was an Instagram post from one of the squad that has since been deleted.

Donatellalymanmoss · 11/07/2016 20:48

I feel like I've already posted that, sorry if I'm repeating myself.

SmellyFartado · 11/07/2016 21:06

Is LuLu the anonymised friend feeding the Hollywood gossip link?

All that's good about Tayto is right there in that link - the slippery chute of love, Ryan Reynolds face, the Met Ball dancing....

APlaceOnTheCouch · 11/07/2016 21:15

dusters yet again I find myself Envy that you have doughnuts. I'm going to end up with a doughnut addiction by the end of these threads Grin

Smelly it feels mean typing that LuLu is Luke, Tim's PR. There was gossip that Tim and LuLu were dating and even married before the TayTo romance rolled into town.

SmellyFartado · 11/07/2016 21:31

I love being Smelly ....in a beautifully fragranced cloud of scent of course.

I'd love it if LuLu was the source. I always imagine these sources to be either embittered/sozzled/screechy or deeply mysterious shadowy sorts with a penchant for nose tapping.

I really am far too invested in Tayto. When If they split, can we have a TayToNoMore thread? I've found my tribe here. Don't make me have to go back to AIBU & chat.

FrayedHem · 11/07/2016 21:34

I don't think Tim ever really wanted Bond but enjoyed having his profile raised as a contender. It's through the roof now but somehow I don't think being Mr Swift was quite what he wanted. The Vest. There's really no shaking that off however Lulu desperately tries to spin it.

Yay to lulu being at the ball. Poor thing getting insta-deleted, I wonder why?

TheAntiBoop · 11/07/2016 21:35

That article says it's a total showmance and then implies taylorbis in it for marriage and babies. Which isn't very showmance. So it is contradictory.

If he wants a bit of a bad boy image he should dump her and let her wrote songs about him

TheAntiBoop · 11/07/2016 21:35

Insta deleted because he was snogging Tom in the photo?

FrayedHem · 11/07/2016 21:50

Maybe Lulu was wearing The Vest but had adapted it to I ❤T.H.

That article does seem to imply Tim is a poor innocent who has been duped and is just too polite to call it off.Hmm

Even if one party of a showmance does want to go Real, it is presumably quite easy just to tell the other one via their publicist err no thanks? I can't imagine he arranged the visit with his Ma unwillingly.

AGnu · 11/07/2016 21:55

If she's talking about wanting his babies that's probably just laying the groundwork for an imminent surprise announcement...

Personally, I'm leaning towards it being a performance piece for her next album but that TimTom doesn't know that's what's going on & just thinks it's a publicity stunt. Her song will be something about how far she can push a bloke before he dumps her, or how silly you can get when you're swept away by love before reality hits & he dumps you for loving him too much.

FrayedHem · 11/07/2016 21:55

Unless he nervously laughed himself into it.

"Tim! I've had the best idea, let's go visit your mom on my private jet! I'll phone the paps"

"Hahaha oh Tay-Tay hahaha."

"I'm serious Tim let's do this"

"Hahahaha ok hahaha"

APlaceOnTheCouch · 11/07/2016 21:58

Frayed I have visions of TayTay getting her publicist to track down Tim's DM, weedling out her address and secretely arranging the visit. Then TayTay tells Tim they're going on a day trip. Cool, thinks Tim when he's ushered on to Tayforce1, maybe a day away from the cameras.
Tayforce1 lands, Tim jumps out excited to see the exotic location . . .oh, it's England. Whilst TayTay jumps up and down excitedly squealing, 'Voila! It's your mama, Tim and we've already had such a good chat about the best place for beach pics.'
No need for Tim's involvement in the planning at all Grin

APlaceOnTheCouch · 11/07/2016 21:59

oops x-post

FrayedHem · 11/07/2016 22:03

I prefer your vision. Poor old Tim probably thought they were going to St Kitts.

raisedbyguineapigs · 11/07/2016 22:05

Blimey I have one day without the interest and you've branched out into all sorts of showbiz gossip! Tay won't be pleasedGrin
Wasn't the rumour initially that she wanted babies with Calvin Harris and that's why he bailed? I don't believe a 26 year old woman at the height of her career would want to have babies with every passing fella. Either she's saying it in a 'lets scare them off, and then I still look like the innocent party' way, or its all a load of bollox
Although speaking of Billie Piper, she did exactly that, and now seems to be reliving some sort of wild rock n roll life on her weekends off from the kids Confused The DM do seem to have it in for her though. They have an innuendo for every time she is spotted with a man, and print Lawrence Fox's ramblings all the time like he's some kind of saint.

FrayedHem · 11/07/2016 22:06

I can imagine Tim-Ma dealing with it like a trooper." So good to see you. Let's get your gym kit washed and pressed". I bet she pegs out washing correctly.

Cocolepew · 11/07/2016 22:16

Poor Lulu getting deleted Sad
I hope The Vest has been washed and pressed for a trip to Bondi Beach. A little touch of a fabric pen could change it to I ❤️AuS

Cocolepew · 11/07/2016 22:17

(I have no idea if Bondi Beach is anywhere near the Gold Toast)

Cocolepew · 11/07/2016 22:17

Coast obvs Blush

TomHiddlestonsDignity · 11/07/2016 22:20

I know raised. They absolutely can't get their heads round the fact she didn't want any money from Chris Evans when they got divorced and that CE and Lawrence fox seemed to get on well, to the point of attending their wedding etc, so always make a point of mentioning it. A woman who is not a gold-digger and has amicable exes does not exist in SBOS land. Burn the witch!

FrayedHem · 11/07/2016 22:20

AGnu whichever way the chips fall, I think Tay-Tay is guaranteed to come out of it better than Tim which is what has got my interest in it.
Performance piece -she is trying to be Edgy Artist, he looks like Ben Affleck kissing JLo's arse.
PR Showmance TayTay has silenced Kanye and Kim, pissed all over CH and Rihanna's track - Tim looks like an utterly fame-chaser.

Real relationship she is in luurve and won't hide it - Tim is now Mr Swift, former actor.

Donatellalymanmoss · 11/07/2016 22:23

Her planning it all behind his back would explain why he never changes his clothes.

Apparently in the deleted instagram Tim is hugging LuLu, although I stumbled across this on a tumblr blog dedicated to forcing TayTay out of the closet the person he's hugging is also about the same size and wearing the same clothes as Cara Delavigne but I won't let that get in the way of adding scandal to the thread which I only looked at because I was wondering how they were working a new boyfriend into their mad theories.

FrayedHem · 11/07/2016 22:25

I think the DM like Laurence Fox because he will happily trash his fellow actors and they feed on that. He is quite scathing of Tim, and I saw on his twitter that he tweeted hiddleswift my life is complete or along those lines.
I like Billie she's always danced to the beat of her own drum, or so it appears anyway

Donatellalymanmoss · 11/07/2016 22:28

She will definitely do better than him out of it, she isn't doing anything that is outside of her existing image with the general public, her core fan base in middle America are all swooning over the rather handsome English chap she's dating, and they will all rush to buy her next Album and go to her next where she will 'tell' them all about what happened with Calvin and all about her great love with Tim.

That'll be another $170 million or so in the bank.
