AceShowbiz - Chace Crawford gay rumors first emerged during his days on "Gossip Girl" and were related to his co-star Ed Westwick. At the time, it was reported that the two actors were spotted kissing on the set of The CW's teen drama series. But his publicist shut down the reports, saying, "These endless rumors are absolutely untrue."
Despite the denial, several years later when the New York Observer published an article about closeted sexuality in Hollywood, it was believed that the paper outed "The Covenant" star. The article detailed the reporter's encounter with "a young movie and TV star-a dashing young man who's been involved with several starlets despite whispers about his close relationships with other men." The actor reportedly enjoyed the companion of "a well-groomed gent" at a movie premiere, and "as we passed, the plus-one stared us down, as if to say, 'Step off,' or perhaps, 'Don't you dare write about this.' " The 34-year-old actor, however, continues to be in a relationship with different women, and is currently dating his "Blood and Oil" co-star Rebecca Rittenhouse.
