Blair and Nate Reunite and We’re So Hype About It
By Alexus Mosley
Spotted: a reunion we didn’t know we needed… but absolutely deserved. Leighton Meester and Chace Crawford (better known as Blair Waldorf and Nate Archibald) reunited on April 23 at a Falconeri dinner in Los Angeles, celebrating the brand’s Ultrafine Cashmere Collection. And yes, the Upper East Side nostalgia hit immediately.
The former Gossip Girl costars posed together poolside at Getty House, looking effortlessly polished and, quite frankly, exactly how you’d imagine them in 2026. Still very much that duo, the pair first appeared together on-screen back in 2007 when Gossip Girl premiered, quickly becoming one of the show’s most memorable (and complicated) relationships. The series ran for six seasons before wrapping in 2012, but clearly, the bonds haven’t gone anywhere.
Crawford has previously shared that the cast has remained close over the years, showing up for each other’s milestones and celebrating wins along the way, a detail that makes moments like this feel a little more special. Also in attendance was Crawford’s girlfriend, model Kelsey Merritt, whom he confirmed he was dating in 2025.
Nearly 20 years later, and somehow, Blair and Nate still know how to make an entrance. XOXO… you know the rest.
