Are Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny a couple?

Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny reunited at the Paley Center in New York Cityon Friday to celebrate The X-Files 20^th anniversay.

Fans have long suspected that Gillian Anderson (Scully) and David Duchovny (Mulder) are a couple in real life and have been waiting to find photo proof that what they know is true.

To promote their appearance at Paley Center, Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny did a Q&A session with fans on Reddit and the couple encouraged fans to, “Come hang with us for the next two hours during our Ask Us (almost) Anything reddit!” and that is just what the fans did.

When he was asked: “One word to describe your 20-year journey together?” David Duchovny answered: “Amazing!”

The fans asked them a variety of question, one fan asked them about a new movie X-Files 3. David Duchovny was very straightforward and encouraged the fans to start a campaign: “I think Chris is working on a script. Chris is shooting a pilot right now, so he might not be working on a script, but he claims to be working on a script, and if he does do that and Fox wants to make it… Gillian will do it, I will do it, so start your writing campaign now. Seriously. We’d all love to do it. The ball is in Fox’s hands. And not Fox Mulder, Fox the studio.”

At one point in the chat someone mentioned that Gillian Anderson was hot and David Duchovny replied: “Yes. Gillian is every bit as hot, and hotter. It’s somewhat shocking.”

That was the tease and at the end of the chat they uploaded a photo with the following comment:“Thank you so much for coming by to ask us questions. We know it’s early. See you next time. We’re going to take a proof photo since so many of you have asked for it.  Photo Proof!”
