Louisa Jacobson Gummer, Meryl Streep’s 33-year-old daughter known for her role in “The Gilded Age,” has publicly come out, sharing photos with her partner, producer Anna Blundell, and writing a heartfelt note on her mother’s 75th birthday.
“Blessed to be entering the Joyful New Era bb,” followed by heart and rainbow flag emojis, celebrated Pride Month, which goes on through June.
Reacting to the Yale School of Drama alumni’s post, a netizen wrote,
“Glad my “gay detects gay” abilities haven’t failed me yet. Happy Pride to us all.”
Another commented,
“Joyful joyful we adore thee.”
A third user said,
“Coming out at your mom’s birthday is so iconic!”
Before dating Anna, Louisa was in a relationship with actor Jonathan Higginbotham, whom she met at the Yale School of Drama.
Meryl did not comment on her daughter’s post but shared a throwback picture on Instagram with the caption,
“Don’t be afraid to take the first step toward your dream.”
In October last year, Meryl revealed that she separated from her husband Don Gummer six years ago and they are living apart.
The couple, who married in 1978, have four children: Henry, 43, Mamie, 40, Grace, 37, and Louisa, 33. Their last public appearance together was at the 2018 Oscars.
Before Don, Meryl was dating actor John Cazale, who passed away in 1978 after battling lung cancer.
