Jake Gyllenhaal flies Taylor Swift to London
Jake Gyllenhaal reportedly spent $200,000 flying new love Taylor Swift to London. The Brokeback Mountain actor — who is currently promoting his new movie Love And Other Drugs in the British capital — flew the country music star in by private jet on Friday night, and the pair were said to be holed up in London’s exclusive Dorchester hotel until yesterday morning.
Taylor — who has dated Twilight actor Taylor Lautner and Disney star Joe Jonas in the past — was due to be in the city to perform at the Radio 1 Teen Awards yesterday, but jetted in early to see Jake.
“Jake wanted some quality time with Taylor,” a source told British newspaper The Sun. “If he hadn’t done this, they would have missed each other as he had to fly back to the US. He hired a jet which would have easily set him back $200,000.”
Rumors about the new couple have been circulating since they were spotted holding hands and looking loved-up while on a romantic walk around Brooklyn, New York, last month.
“Taylor and Jake were walking around Park Slope holding hands,” a source said at the time. “They looked like a couple!”
Jake — who split from actress Reese Witherspoon last December after more than two years together — has also dated stars including Natalie Portman and Kirsten Dunst in the past.
