Jake Gyllenhaal Love life
As for his sentimental life, it is known that from 2002 to 2004 he was dating Kristen Dunst. In 2007 it became known that he was in a relationship with his Rendition partner, Reese Witherspoon.
But in November 2009 this love came to an end, and various media outlets reported the breakup.
However, the curious note in sentimental relationships came a year later, and it is known that he had a brief romance with the singer Taylor Swift, this during late 2010 and early 2011.
At the time it was one of the most famous couples in the middle. And it was Swift herself who told details of the relationship, through her music.
Although there were those who defended this courtship, the detractors were not lacking, due to the almost ten years difference between Gyllenhaal and the singer.
They met in mid-2012, they were caught on the “Saturday Night Live” program. They attended to support their partner Emma Stone.
After that, rumors of a sentimental approach between the two began. On one occasion, Swift received the question that everyone wanted, to know if she was in a relationship with the Californian, and she simply answered: “I am always optimistic about love.”
However, the couple was later seen together in different locations. Despite their criticism, they stayed together. They were seen on a walk in New York, where they shared Thanksgiving.
But just three months after having “started” their relationship , rumors of a final break came. Apparently he told Taylor that “it wasn't working.” The singer felt very hurt at that moment, but both continued with their lives separately.
