It seems destiny has a mischievous sense of humor, for Christine Baranski and King Princess have become the internet’s favorite double act since Nine Perfect Strangers. The two did not wait for gossip to anoint them; they themselves, with wry precision, dubbed their very first meeting a “first date.” Interviews soon acquired the flavor of flirtation, red carpets became their stage, and the rest of us were left to marvel at Cupid’s unusually heavy hand.

That moment arrived when King Princess posted a photograph with Christine Baranski on Instagram, captioned simply with the telling phrase, “#loveislove.” Fans read between the lines, while industry insiders clutched pearls with delight. Matters escalated further when comedian Hannah Einbinder, a close ally of King Princess, reposted the picture on her own story, slyly writing, “do I even need to say it.” With one swipe, the internet was left gasping for confirmation.

Amid the frenzy along with the curiosity behind the Nine Perfect Strangers cast, discussions of sexuality became central to the speculation. King Princess openly identifies as genderqueer and gay, and uses she/they/it/its pronouns, describing their gender identity as fluid and centered on the spectrum. Christine Baranski, meanwhile, was married to actor Matthew Cowles until his passing in 2014 and is a practising Catholic. While she has never publicly defined her sexuality, if the rumors prove true, admirers may soon be reimagining Baranski as bisexual, proving that love remains as unpredictable as it is entertaining.

The frenzy intensified when comedian Hannah Einbinder added her own remark, cheekily commenting, “ava and deborah vibes,” a nod to her Hacks character alongside Jean Smart. King Princess wasted no time responding with, “double date ?” which only added fuel to the already roaring fire. With such exchanges circulating widely, the internet has found endless delight in shaping Christine Baranski and King Princess into its current obsession.
