The evidence that Reddie is canon
1. Pennywise said that Richie has a secret. Secret that Richie is afraid to tell friends. Usually people afraid to talk about love. Also, Derry is very homophobic city (we can see it in the first scene in the movie “It: chaprter 2” & read it in the book). Maybe, Richie was afraid to admit ‘cause he thoughts that people wouldn’t understand & support him (only condemn him)?
2. Richie carved his name and Eddie’s name on the kissing bridge. Omg, who carved friend’s name on the kissing bridge?!
3. First of all, Richie was always worried about Eddie, and only then about the other friends.
4. Eddie’s going to divorce his wife when he arrived to Derry.
5. Eddie saved Richie by sacrificing himself.
6. Richie is the only one who tried to save Eddie. In the end, Richie cried and mourned him the most. Tozier couldn’t believe in his death.
