Fall is here, which means it’s time to cozy up with a cup of coffee and indulge in our annual re-watch of the beloved TV series, Gilmore Girls. But hey, it’s not just the changing leaves and pumpkin spice lattes that have us buzzing; it’s the burning question of who the father of Rory’s baby is: Jess or Logan. Trust us, we’re emotionally invested!

At the end of Netflix’s “A Year in the Life,” Rory’s pregnancy revelation left fans on the edge of their seats. And lucky for us, the show’s costume supervisor, Valerie Campbell, has been spilling the beans on TikTok like a beauty guru dropping a major secret. According to Valerie, there’s no room for debate – the daddy is 100 percent Logan. Seriously, people, it’s as clear as the most radiant highlighter in our makeup kits.

Amy Sherman-Palladino, the creative genius behind Gilmore Girls, herself even questioned why fans were second-guessing the obvious. Valerie emphasized, “It’s because it was supposed to be very, very, very, very, very obvious.” Well, talk about dropping the mic!

But hold on tight because Valerie had yet another bombshell theory to detonate. Brace yourselves, people. She believes that the iconic last lines of the show weren’t meant for Rory at all…they were meant for the queen herself, Lorelai. Woah, mind blown!

Picture this – in the Season 8 we never got to see, Amy would have crafted an entirely different storyline. Lorelai, still at a baby-making age, would have been the one uttering those unforgettable words. And guess what? It actually makes sense. The whole Luke and Lorelai buildup may have happened earlier, giving us more delicious, heartwarming moments to swoon over. And considering it’s a family-friendly show, Lorelai’s journey into motherhood would have hit all the right notes.

Valerie serves up her theory with a side dish of wisdom: “After all, I don’t think Amy would have wanted to make Rory pregnant at that age. 23 is really young. Especially in the ’90s, most people were off going to college, doing career things, and making a life for themselves.” We can’t help but nod in agreement.

So here we are, diving headfirst into the world of Gilmore Girls, where the possibilities are as endless as Lorelai’s coffee order. The romantic twists, the witty banter, and now, the age-old question of who will ultimately fill the role of Rory’s baby daddy – it’s a rollercoaster ride we’re ecstatic to be on. And with Valerie dropping these tantalizing hints, it’s safe to say we’ll be obsessing over Gilmore Girls for years to come.

Now, if you’ll excuse us, we’re off to rewatch the series and contemplate life’s most essential pursuit – Team Rory or Team Logan? Get ready to spiral with us!
