The Sun, which reported the match, noted that the couple wasn't bothered by a 20 year age gap. (Black is 39.)

"He's besotted with Dustin," a source told the British paper. "They love each other and aren't concerned what anyone says about age difference."

What do you think of this match-up, Instincters? They've certainly got enough awards and medals between them!

E! Online is also confirming the story.

If it's true, have fun guys!

  1. “News” items like this only

    "News" items like this only appease the insecure gays who NEED a public figure to justify their own homosexuality.

    I don’t care if Tom Daley’s any degree of gay. And I especially don’t care if him and Dustin Lance Black are boinking each other’s brains out. Why?….For I’m secure enough with my own predominately gay bisexuality, and attending to the needs of my own prospective playmate(s) or lover.

    So why is this story "news"? Especially when we as a community have more important things to worry about besides "who's bangin' who".

  2. Instinct you are now just

    Instinct you are now just reaching for the bottom of a barrel. The reporting is becoming less about reporting and being dirty ass story tellers with very little proof in between. Honestly, the person that wrote and posted this really should be fired and told to find a life.

  9. Who gives a fuck? I do. Want

    Who gives a fuck? I do. Want to know why? Dustin Lance Black is a plight on any young up-and-comer in Hollywood, and it's a pity that Daley wasn't privy to that fact. He jumps from one barely legal guy to the next, and I know so from personal experience. I personally know 3 guys that were 18-22 when approached and seemingly wooed by Black, all in about the same timeframe too. He made attempts to woo them, basically tried to get them to fall in love with him, and they just went around and fucked other people. Yes, we all enjoy a good casting couch story every now and then, but this guy is such a goddamn LEECH. I understand liking people younger than you, but once this relationship fails – and it will, because Black canNOT hold a relationship without cheating for more than a few months – I hope that he starts bumping up his demographic a few years. Otherwise he will eventually be that "successful Hollywood 70-year-old pedophile." I hate to sound rash, but he really is a bad person when you boil it down. It's a pity that this man has taken advantage of so many young guys, using his status to get him ahead. Tsk. I don't want to make out any stereotypes that gays are pedophiles, because we aren't. I think that Daley being involved with THIS man in particular is extremely toxic though, yes.

    Also… let's be honest. Black merely ADAPTED the documentary "The Life and Time of Harvey Milk" and exploited the works of others to get where he is now, and his movies since then have been nothing more than sorry attempts at historical fiction. Not a lot of imagination there. I know he has personally screwed over a few other Hollywood players – i.e. Tom DeSanto and Bryan Singer – by acting as their partners and then ducking out and stealing projects on his own… Looks like there's not a facet of his life that is a bit honest.

    I man sound like a guy who's been scorned by him, but that's not the case. I just am sick of sitting back and letting this semi-talented douche bag corrupt and ruin one guy after another. His advocacy campaigning is to be applauded to be sure, but he needs to walk the walk as well. Give me a break already…

    I just hope that if they ARE in fact dating – and I wouldn't be at all surprised because I'm sure the second Daley hit the screen at the Olympics Black was already purchasing his airfare to set up a "chance encounter" – I really hope that Black's extensive "slutty phase" is over and he doesn't turn on a handsome young guy with his whole life ahead of him who was brave enough to make a stand for himself and social advancement.

    • Oh my God!  You posted this

      Oh my God!  You posted this exact same screed on Queerty. What is your beef with Mr. Black?  It sounds almost personal. Are you one of his former victims?  Do you speak from firsthand experience?  

      Please note, I am asking a serious question and not being snarky or cynical. I do however, apologize up front if it sounds that way.

      • You could say that. I posted

        You could say that. I posted it a few places because I think people are largely unaware that this guy goes out and preaches the good word, and then turns around and basically works his faux charm on any wide-eyed boy who would listen.

        • That seems to be a common

          That seems to be a common ploy.  People that appear to be supporters of the cause or benefactors are actually just creepers preying on young guys.

    • Considering the media

      Considering the media consolidation that presently plagues gay media, I find no problem with you posting the exact same comment on all of these sites. I do it myself. Because all they do is take stories from one another anyway. Not an original idea solely on one site amongst them. So if someone misses the repeated story and your relevant comment on one site, they can easily get informed on another site in the "Media Consolidation Brother- (or Sister-) hood.

  12. Can’t gay men just be friends

    Can't gay men just be friends? Do the media HAVE to suggest that if they're seen together, they're dating?
