After Balfour publicly came out as gay on Instagram in June of last year, the couple made their relationship official shortly thereafter. Actress added, “It is undoubtedly freeing… to fully embrace and explore my queerness,” beside a mirror selfie of herself wearing an overall.
Despite the difficulty in arriving at this point, she said, “it feels like coming home to myself in a way that’s burst life right open.”
Jacobson first revealed her sexual orientation in a 2018 profile for Vanity Fair, saying, “I date men and women, and they have to be witty, doing something they enjoy.”
Lately, it seems like all the humorous women are getting engaged. Booksmart star Beanie Feldstein confirmed her engagement to longtime companion Bonnie Chance Roberts in June. You two deserve all the praise and happiness in the world.
According to Entertainment Tonight, the engagement was confirmed by a spokesman for Jacobson. In an Instagram post from October 2021, honouring (what was at the time of posting) their one-year anniversary, Jacobson, then age 38, revealed her relationship with fellow actress Balfour, then age 35.
Jacobson said in the caption of the sweet photo that she had just celebrated “one year with this beautiful human,” referring to Balfour. Just don’t understand my good fortune.
