Blake Ritson Shirtless, Young, Girlfriend, or Gay in Real Life? Anyone of you watching The Gilded Age on HBO? If you’re a fan of period drama, you should check it out. The show has gotten pretty good reviews (it currently has a 79% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes) and has already been renewed for a second season. Anyhoo, we gotta admit that we only started watching the series when Kevin told us that it stars Blake Ritson as one of the main characters. We loved, loved, loved the British actor in Da Vinci’s Demons and we confess that we shipped his character (Girolamo Riario) with Tom Riley’s Leonardo da Vinci.

But let’s go back to The Gilded Age shall we? Our Blake is playing the role of Oscar Van Rhijn, a charismatic guy from an old rich family who is looking for a suitable wife. Oh, he is also closeted so we see him in one of the episodes bumping uglies with his secret lover played by Claybourne Elder. We are tempted to include photos of the two lovebirds going lovey dovey but we promised Grandma Akita that we’ll keep it G rated so you have to make do with these two images. Hehe.
