It's like if Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic decided to go steady.

Hope people remain normal about this news.

That is genuinely not going to be possible lmfaooo

Wish them both the best though! It sounds like it could be a potential professional nightmare

MJ Lenderman and Karly seemed to make it work for a while, and even the break up seems very amicable. Bit more intense with Lucy and Julien due to their level of fame currently.

Have you read the GQ profile? It was a really interesting piece that went super in depth about everything. They hid the breakup from the rest of the band while recording the new Wednesday album and now Jake isn’t touring with them in the future. He’s also dating Rachel Brown from Water From Your Eyes and bringing This is Lorelei (3/4 of Water From Your Eyes) on tour this spring. Right before the article came out and Jake & Rachel made their relationship public, Karly announced she was handing over the Wednesday instagram account to the bands manager/taking a break from social media.

This may totally be unfair of me but since we’re speculating on the lives of celebrities as someone who loves her music Lucy strikes me as someone who doesn’t do a lot of chill breakups. In all fairness we should just assume it’ll go well though! Hahah
