Move over, Chace Crawford. The Gossip Girl star's alter ego, Nate Archibald, is getting a handsome, older cousin.
Entertainment Weekly is reporting that the new character will be in his 20s and is wealthy, confident and politically-minded. Which begs the question: In Gossip Girl land, who is President? Are they operating in real time? If Serena and Blair were old enough to vote, would they have voted for Obama?
Anyway. Nate's cousin has a name, and it's Kip Vanderbilt. Preppy much? And, he's married -- which doesn't necessarily mean he can't get embroiled in some romantic entanglements. This is the Upper East Side, after all. XOXO, Gossip Girl.
