Hehe. Yep,they don't provide much fodder for the gossip mill that's for sure. It has been rather interesting to read the speculations on this current topic and I agree,it's not like anyone's pulling anything out of there butt or from far left field by speculating on a possible estrangement or break up.It does seems odd that with Alex due to be on set in Berlin in a few weeks or a month for Mute preproduction/ filming and his absence during the long promo tour for LOT ,that they would want to spend as much time together as possible, regardless of their independent natures. It does indeed open the field for speculation. I am leaning toward the still together side but won't be surprised if they are estranged or have decided to call it quits.
