With 7 seasons of its original run, plus a 2016 Netflix revival, Gilmore Girls is more than just a TV show — it’s a way of life. But nearly seven years after the revival aired, fans have had a burning question on their minds.
After all, the revival series ends off on a pretty strange cliffhanger — namely, Rory’s unexpected pregnancy. But a recent TikTok may have confirmed the news once and for all.
The Revival Was A Four-Part Series On Netflix.
Starring Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel, reprising their roles as mother and daughter Lorelai and Rory Gilmore, Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life shows exactly that.
We See Familiar Faces Navigate Through A Single Year.
Each episode is dedicated to a season, starting with winter and ending with the following autumn.
Rory’s Story Shows How She’s Struggled Over The Years.
In the original show, Rory dreamed of becoming a pro journalist. But in the revival, it’s revealed that she’s a freelancer, struggling to find work.
She Also Has A Boyfriend.
But Rory’s boyfriend, Paul, isn’t just forgettable to her friends and family. He’s forgettable to Rory, too.
It’s Also Revealed That She Keeps In Contact With Logan.
Logan, played by Matt Czuchry, was one of Rory’s main love interests during her college years. However, he’s engaged to another woman.
But That Doesn’t Stop Them From Having An Affair.
Though she never broke up with Paul, Rory pursues an affair with Logan throughout the series.
She Also Has A One-Night-Stand.
Meeting a man in a Wookie costume, Rory ends up sleeping with him.
There’s Also The Matter Of Jess.
Jess, played by Milo Ventimiglia, is another one of Rory’s previous love interests and makes an appearance on the show. Though they’re not shown to have had a relationship during A Year in the Life , many fans think he could be the father of Rory’s baby.
Earlier This Week, Valerie Campbell Confirmed The News On TikTok.
Valerie, who worked on the show as the costume supervisor, posted a video to her TikTok account . In it, she finally cleared the air on who Rory’s baby daddy is, and expelled any of the more outlandish theories.
Valerie Begins By Reviewing The Facts.
“So let’s do the math. In Winter , she is sleeping with Paul — maybe, maybe not, I don’t know — she might have forgotten to do it but, she definitely forgot to break up with that guy,” she says.
She Then Mentions The Wookie.
“In Spring , she sleeps with the Wookie once,” she continues. “And, if it was the Wookie she would definitely be showing, and we never gave her a pregnancy belly … It’s definitely not the Wookie.”
The Last Choice Is, Really, The Most Obvious One.
Valerie then brings up Logan, whom Rory sleeps with during Summer . “Amy [Sherman-Palladino, the show’s creator] herself said, ‘why are people even questioning who the father is?’ It’s because it was supposed to be very, very obvious.”
At Last, Fans Had The Answer They Were Searching For.
Having been up for less than a week, the TikTok has already gained nearly a million views.
Commenters Shared Their Own Thoughts And Feelings.
Over 1500 people dropped by the comment section to react to this major Gilmore Girls news.
For Many, It Was Pretty Obvious.
While some wondered why Matt Czuchry was instructed to keep it a secret, others felt it was pretty obvious that Logan is the dad.
Valerie Even Responded To Some Commenters.
She tried to give insight where she could and reacted to other comments as well.
But In All Honesty, Many People Didn’t Want Logan To Be The Father.
For many, Logan was the wrong choice. A sizeable amount of fans wished it could have been Jess.
OF Course, That Wouldn’t Make Sense.
Seeing as Rory and Jess don’t sleep together on the show, it couldn’t be him.
Valerie Later Posted A Follow-Up TikTok.
In it, she further explained how, thanks to the timeline, Rory couldn’t have gotten pregnant from Paul or the Wookie. And Jess wouldn’t make any sense.
