We have to give him credit—the old dog still has a few tricks up his sleeve: he flaunts that wedding ring (which goes hand in hand with the “Tèa” tattoo underneath) and refuses to sit next to a woman who’s supposedly head over heels in love with him. Better yet, he won’t sit next to any woman.

Meanwhile, he gives his beloved wife a shitty wedding and talks about it as if it were a trip to the dentist, goes to Sundance alone, doesn’t even take a single photo of the couple on the red carpet at Malice (even Carice’s nanny took one), doesn’t look her in the face in public, much less hold her hand, and so on…

In other words, he does what’s easy and what costs him nothing in terms of image: who doesn’t know he’s married and… what does it matter to Gillian whether he sits next to her or not??

True proof of love, respect, and appreciation, as some have already mentioned here quite accurately, is, basically, doing everything he hasn’t done so far.

True proof of love would be him not attending the SAG Awards because he was on his honeymoon, or having gone wearing his newlywed wedding ring, or better yet, having attended with his new wife by his side. In most parts of the world, a wedding is still a cause for joy, happiness, and something to be happily announced to the public. P.S.: I think we all agree that there’s a 90% chance he was already married at the time of the SAG Awards, which explains his near-breakdown on live TV. Could it have been out of fear of telling Gillian? Because would Gillian’s opinion even matter?

P.S. 2: LaBubu isn't stupid enough to fall for his tricks, but what choice does she have but to settle for these crumbs of recognition? He won't give her any more than that.

He has to strike a delicate balance between coming across as a respectable husband and not grossing out the public with his decade long relationship with someone who is only 32. If they respected each other more they could have ended up in a much better place.

It's true: you either have power or you don't, something that is evident in the entirety of their relationship dynamics, not in isolated episodes. That's why I'm not convinced by this story that he distances himself simply because his wife gets irritated by specific events. If Momo's power in the relationship were systemic enough to dictate his friendships, she would control everything — and the absence of other major public displays of control completely undermines this narrative. After all, if she were so powerful, she would have the power to demand a proper wedding party or to make him take her to that convention, among many other things.

Unless, of course, he himself provokes this insecurity by insinuating that there is something there, hiding the fact that, in reality, there has never been anything concrete and no movement on Gillian's part — at least not that is known, unless she has done everything in secret, because publicly Gillian has never taken a single practical step that indicates a desire to bring that plot to real life.

She has power now, asking for a divorce in California. He has to behave around other women. Cheek kiss only for a woman he famously greeted with a mouth kiss since their time on set and choosing to sit between the only two women on the stage is part of his respectable behavior.

Actors know they’re being filmed all the time at these conventions and that the footage will spread throughout the fandom. So that hesitation about the chair next to Gillian was intentional—if no one noticed, fine, but he made sure it happened. Why? To send a message to his wife? Honestly, it doesn’t matter. It was unnecessary; it just cemented his idiocy. Gillian is an old hand at showbiz. She definitively distanced herself from Duchovny sometime in early 2025, and the “comeback” with nods on social media at the end of the year was just an icebreaker after the contract for the events was signed, and she knew they would have to interact. She maintained her usual demeanor to leave fans with a fond memory of the series, with everyone happy to be reunited, in what may be the original cast’s final gathering. If there was a farewell between them, it was bittersweet; they were part of a totally unexpected cultural phenomenon, still celebrated today, a hit with both audiences and critics—that was a great privilege.👏❤️

She understands that he no longer helps her feminist image so without him returning any of her kind gestures and barely acknowledging them or outright ignoring them, it was time for her to stop. She wanted her old buddy to sit next to her and he freaked out in a very unnecessary fashion. Something caused this change around her and it started at the Screen Actors Awards.

"David has brought Mo several times before. Maybe now she is tired of staying in the hotel room and chose to stay at home."

Hello likeseverybody! If she were free to choose the trips and activities she wanted, this relationship would have ended long ago. You see, he would never force her to do anything, but that’s where the power imbalance comes in: whoever provides the money takes control of the decisions, creating a dynamic of submission and obedience. He wouldn’t support her without getting something in return; it was implied that she had to meet his needs and desires—hence it being a form of soft prostitution. Every time he “invited” her to hop on a plane to come see him—because he probably wanted to have sex—deep down she had no choice but to accept if she wanted to continue being supported by him. Maybe now that they’re married, that’s changed…

She got off on feeling important enough for him (a “celebrity god”) to call for her or she wouldn’t have shown every flight she’s gone on to meet him.

She’d still love to be paraded around as some important VIP but he gets to pick and choose when she accompanies him.

Him ring less at the con would have been really big news. Good that he respected his marriage enough to wear it albeit on top of aysf.

In other news... He is looking chopped. Far cry from how he looked when he procured smoothie and its maker

That’s why he’s careful not to forget it for the public and he isn’t for normal day to day stuff.

He closing in on 70 and he should have taken advice from Mitch Pileggi about moisturizing.

I wondering if her sons aren't embarrassed by this phase of hers with the brand and books and the whole sex-positive vibe on the internet, and how there are people their age who are obsessed with their mum. I would feel incredibly uncomfortable, and I'm the same age as her oldest lol

She’s talked about them getting embarrassed when people come up to her to talk about sex. Want is ruined for them, unless they can live with the fact that they will read one of their mother’s fantasies. Their friends can see their mother naked if they want which is probably uncomfortable.

It could always be worse, she could date a guy who is 23 when she has a 17 year old son at home.

It won't be predatory if Gillian dates a woman in her thirties. It is when is a 22-year-old guy with a 15-year-old girl

It could still feel wrong to someone to date a person their child’s age or younger and that’s a valid feeling but 30 is out of predatory territory if there are no developmental issues.

her friends were in Santa Barbara when they got married but only the 2 of them went to the courthouse and none of his family or friends were there. That sounds odd. Did she go up there for a girls' weekend and he met her up there for a quick signing of paperwork and probably headed out. If that's the kind of wedding he gave her, would he even give her a honeymoon? Maybe the honeymoon portion is that he showed up. Good enough for her.

Bachelorette party with the three of them? He took her out to dinner I guess and that’s all I know. They go wherever they want just the two of them on vacation so a designated honeymoon isn’t that necessary.

HELP! In my opinion, Gillian’s comment that it was important to her that her performance not come across as predatory legitimized a relationship between two people decades apart in age—as long as it isn’t creepy. I hope that wasn’t her intention, but that’s how it struck me. Am I misinterpreting this? I hope so.

Since G is 27 years older it feels odd to her to romance anyone that young and she didn’t want that to come across in the movie because her personal feelings are not her character’s feelings. The weirdness had to be the surroundings and what was happening to the characters. Her costar is also a 31 year old woman so a bit different than a man picking up a college student.

Why PM would be mortified about Gillian's fantasies?

Not her fantasies, discussing their real life sex life like the time D told the whole world he and Tèa had sex in a sauna and they both threw up after from dehydration.

The SAG Awards ceremony was on February 23—if he hadn't already gotten married, he did so in the six days that followed. Téa's birthday is on the 25th; maybe the cheeky guy took advantage of the occasion…

🫠 March first was this year. Her pictures posted from Santa Barbara were posted before. I still think it’s possible they were already married.

"At past panels they sat together and looked disappointed when they were spilt up, something changed this year for Duchovs. She started wearing jumpsuits like G and she used to deliberately post to take attention away from her. She has had issues since she starting reading in fan spaces and realized how much the fandom wanted them to be a couple and how they recognized her grift immediately."

Sorry, Penguin, my translator is terrible at picking up on nuances—I didn't understand a single word of that last reply. Would you mind explaining it better? And just to confirm, do you really believe that all this drama with Duchovny is just so as not to upset his wife? Gracias,

They sat together at all the other comic con panels and that one time in NYC when they premiered the first episode of the revival, they looked disappointed when they had to sit with a table between their chairs. Mo started copying G’s clothing style. She was very jealous of Gillovny. She set up her own account for her relationship with him named Davnique. People didn’t fall for her ticks, like pretending she was taking videos of the dog to actually get David in the background. When she couldn’t take it anymore and she needed more attention she would drop intimate photos with David, each year they got more sexual.

He could—and will be able to—bring his wife if he wants; at worst, people might treat her with indifference or coldness, but she’ll never be harassed or booed. Despite the buzz on blogs, most fans gave up on the idea of a romance between Gillian and David a long time ago. There’s our little world here in the blogs, and then there’s the reality of the rest of the fandom. Now, as for everyone’s personal opinion on this relationship with the Child Bride, you can be sure that 90% of it is negative. If he doesn’t bring her, it’s out of his own embarrassment, not because he’s afraid of the fans.

It could be both. He might know some of what’s been commented on her and to his daughter on Instagram. I’m sure he doesn’t trust a big crowd.

If he has so much love and respect for feelings of Momo —and even more so, if he’s afraid of her reaction—why didn’t he take her? That excuse is pure deception—if the girl had all that power, she would have married him with all the pomp and publicity, posted it on social media, beepopping out one child after another, and making him roll out red carpets for her to strut down. There’s no such thing as half a power; you either have it or you don’t. That crazy Baldwin woman has it.

Duchovny is a jerk to Gillian because he’s jealous. There’s always been animosity on his part—a mix of resentment, pride, and affection that’s stronger than he is.

Gillian surpassed Duchovny as early as the first season. She was the first to win critical acclaim, she brought home the first major award for the series, she had the Scully Effect. She got married and had a child before he did. She never resented him because she wasn’t overshadowed; she didn’t have to endure the embarrassment of being the only well-known actress on the show and watching a newcomer win an award and make it look so easy to act and portray such a complex character. He was the straight 90 student, all full of himself, and she came along and got an 100 off the bat. It also doesn’t help that Gillian, despite her many flaws, never had that hunger for recognition and attention that he always had—that infuriated him even more; the woman didn’t even care about being famous…

He’s had outbursts of aggression and disrespect toward her on several occasions. It’s not even out of conscious malice; I actually think he tries to avoid it and is mortified by this feeling of pure jealousy. I’m sure that if she had failed in her career, he would treat her better. And there’s a storm on the horizon: Gillian has a movie that’s 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, it’s likely to become a cult classic, and there’s buzz that she might be nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her performance, which has been described as “insane.” I don’t think she’ll even be nominated, but just the fact that there’s an article saying “this movie might finally win her an Oscar” and no one finds that funny—Jesus, he’d kill to experience that.

I agree he’s been jealous of her. I don’t know of I believe that caused him not to sit next to her, he didn’t want to sit next to Annabeth either. He doesn’t wear his ring on errands yet it’s religiously on his finger when he’s at public events so he is changing his behavior to project a certain perception for the public.

´The choices I make in the public arena already have great impact on my very private partner and three children. Subjecting them to any more scrutiny or tabloid headlines is unfair and unkind'

https://gillianderson.wordpress.com/2024/09/14/gillian-anderson-wants-women-to-put-pleasure-first/

I think she said that especially for her choices of projects that revolve around sex and desire, and not to say too much about herself about it.

She won’t talk in specifics about her sex life either. That’s embarrassing for her children to hear about and PM would be mortified, his children too.

The paragraph before the quote.

And for all her frankness and enlightenment, Ms. Anderson remains mum on her own sex life. She has no plans to speak publicly about the details of her own proclivities, nor her longtime relationship with her partner, Peter Morgan, who created the television show “The Crown.”

Just to set the record straight—I’m still not entirely sure about this: Was Duchovny already married at the SAG Awards?

The awards happened on March 1st and he said they got married in February.

K anon my point was if you flip anything eventually you are going to get minority oppression because humans are going to human. A large group gravitates to itself. I see no utopia ever, as long as we exit there will be wars against and suppression of the “out” group. Peaceful people are becoming the minority in power on an earth filled with too much death and destruction. People who reach for power are after not the greatest leaders.

Happy Pride and I’ll leave you with G’s own words on the subject of sexual orientation. She also said something like kiss someone and see what feels right.

“Anne is an active example of this. Of how open-minded and all-accepted we should all be in any community and under all circumstances.

Who cares if a woman who once loved men now loves women? Who cares if a man who once loved men now loves women? Who cares if someone's love fluctuates between men and women and men? What's the big f****** deal?

So let's practice what we preach and with the acceptance that we expect from others. Let us stop being so damn judgmental and crucifying of everyone who doesn't fit into our boxed-in perception of what is right.

You know, it is almost the twenty first century. Let us learn from Anne's example and just let ourselves let others be.”
