Gilmore Girls Creator Weighs In On Rory’s Boyfriend Debate—and Her Answer May Surprise You

Amy Sherman-Palladino just spilled a large vat of coffee tea.

Amid the decades-long debate over which heartthrob should be deemed the perfect man for Gilmore Girls’ protagonist Rory Gilmore, played by Alexis Bledel, the show’s creator weighed in on the discourse.

But in a shocking turn of events, Amy isn’t Team Jess, Team Dean or Team Logan. Rather, she exclusively told E! News in a joint interview with her husband Daniel Palladino that she will forever be, “Team Rory.”

Because, as she put it, “What she wants, she can have.”

For his part, Daniel—who is currently working with his wife on their new Prime Video series Étoile—expressed that he has a very special place in his heart for all three of the boys: Jared Padalecki (Dean), Milo Ventimiglia (Jess), and Matt Czuchry (Logan).

“We know all three of those guys very well,” the 65-year-old explained. “We kind of feel like we raised them young. They were young, young, young men.”
