OMFG, East Siders: might Kelly Rutherford and Matthew Settle be exchanging XOXOs in real life?!? The actress and actor, who portrayed star-crossed lovers Lily and Rufus on Gossip Girl for many years, appear to have taken their romance off screen. At least based on a handful of intimate photos posted to Instagram, such as the following snapshot Rutherford recently included on her account… along with a heart emoticon! The fictional couple didn’t end up together to close out Gossip Girl (ummm… spoiler alert!), but it appears as if Rutherford and Settle are determined to right that wrong in their actual personal lives. There’s even an Instagram fan account documenting Kelly and Matthew’s relationship. It is adorably called Settleford. Things have been far less adorable for Rutherford over the past few years. The beautiful actress filed for bankruptcy in the summer of 2013; and she was involved in one of the more tension-filled custody battles in recent Hollywood memory back in 2009. Her split with estranged husband Daniel Giersch was so contentious that Giersch learned about the birth of his child online at the time, from celebrity gossip reports. So, hey, at least the bar is set very low for Settle. Go watch Gossip Girl online in order to relive this fake romance and then join us in wishing the best to the two stars now recreating it for real. Yay! Gossip Girl Cast: Then & Now 1. Blake Lively Blake Lively, after closing the book on Serena van der Woodsen, married her Green Lantern co-star Ryan Reynolds and is now pregnant with their first child. Since Gossip Girl wrapped, she moved on to film projects as an actress, and has kept a pretty low-profile, which doesn’t always mesh with her fashion icon status and being named one of TIME‘s 100 Most Influential People. She also launched a new lifetyle website, Preserve, on which she revealed her pregnancy.
