'The Gilded Age' star Louisa Jacobson, the daughter of Streep and Don Gummer, shared a series of photos over her mom's birthday weekend to honor her 'Joyful New Era.'

Actor Louisa Jacobson, daughter of Meryl Streep, seemingly came out as LGBTQ+ during her mother's birthday celebrations.

Over the weekend, Jacobson posted a series of photos on Instagram. The first was of her with producer Anna Blundell, followed by a screenshot of an article with the headline “We’re Entering A Joyful New Era of Lesbian Fashion.”


Jacobson captioned it, “Blessed to be entering the Joyful New Era bb,” adding a heart on fire emoji and a rainbow flag emoji. In true iconic fashion, the post was shared during her mother’s birthday weekend, as Streep's birthday is on June 22.

While Jacobson did not explicitly confirm her identity, many commenters interpreted the images as a hint that she identifies as a lesbian. She had previously posted a Pride month Instagram story on June 1, saying “Happy priiiiiiiide,” while holding a book called How To Be Gay, which a fan shared on X (formerly Twitter).

Jacobson has followed in her mother's footsteps by attending Yale School of Drama and now stars in the HBO period drama The Gilded Age.


Some people were pleasantly surprised.

Trump Just Shared A Truly Unhinged Tribute To Tim Cook After He Announced He's Stepping Down As Apple CEO—And, Hoo Boy

President Donald Trump shared an unhinged tribute to Apple CEO Tim Cook—whom he again referred to as "Tim Apple"—following Cook's announcement that Apple will have a new leader starting in September, openly reminiscing about all the times Cook would call him to "kiss my ass."

Cook took over from Steve Jobs and reshaped Apple by leaning on his operations expertise. He streamlined and expanded global supply chains, introduced Apple-designed chips, and pushed the company beyond hardware into services, launching subscription offerings like Apple News, Apple TV+, and Apple Pay, which have since become major revenue drivers.
