Mother Attempts to Improve Her Son’s Love Life!
Samuel’s two-time Oscar winner mother attempted to set him up with openly gay Olympian Adam Rippon in January 2018.
Samuel, a 30-year-old director, had a crush on Rippon, who won a bronze medal for Team USA at the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics.
Samuel told his mother about Adam, the famous Olympian. Even his mother, Sally, wanted her son to date Adam and attempted to pair them up.
Samuel immediately apologized for the embarrassing set-up after learning of his mother’s intention to pair him with the dashing Olympian via Twitter. He went on to say that he had nothing but admiration for his Olympic prince.
In addition, Adam responded by saying he admires Sam’s mother and is grateful to her. Adam also stated that he hopes to meet Samuel someday.
Samuel tweeted about his conversation with his mother on February 16, 2018, indicating that both son and mother were working hard for Adam. Sally said in the tweet that Adam is beautiful and advised him to find a way.
Samuel was also moved by Rippon’s openness about his sexual orientation in public and his inclusion as a gay athlete in the Olympics. His precise words were,
“I despise being earnest, but an openly, ‘non-passing,’ sassy, beautiful gay 20-something daring America not to love him and becoming the Olympics Games’ sweetheart is very moving to me.”
In addition, Adam broke his silence on the whole set-up saga, stating that he loved Sally Field (Samuel’s mother) because everyone loves Sally Field. When asked if he went on a date with Samuel, he gestured “no” and explained that he had been busy since the Olympics.
Moreover, Sam also shared a cute picture with Adam on 10 March 2018 with the caption thanking his mom.
Anyway, Rippon and Griesman finally met in person on March 10 at the Human Rights Campaign gala in Los Angeles. However, no one knows whether they attended the event as dates or simply met up as friends.
But before they met, Samuel was apprehensive about meeting Adam. According to pinknews on March 18, 2018, Samuel admitted to feeling shy, but because Adam was a cool nice guy, he felt completely fine afterwards.
