As a die hard Tom fan this should make me startled, I guess. But it actually doesn't surprise me one bit. Tom's attitude towards love and falling in love make a 180 degree turn over the last year and just like with Bill's kissing picture I can't emphasize enough ... the boys are young adults with the same wants and needs out of love as all of us.
Whether this Tom / Ria thing is true or not, it's bound to happen the twins will have a girlfriend ... and it will be sooner than we all anticipate!
