Jake presented Jennifer, his The Good Girl co-star, with the Vanguard Award at the ceremony, to light of her contributions to helping increase visibility and understanding of the LGBT community in Hollywood and as Jennifer joined him on stage, the pair shared a hug and a kiss.

A source told Woman’s Day magazine: “It wasn’t just a polite peck on the cheek. There was definitely feeling in that embrace.”

“When Reese heard about it, she broke down in tears asking, ‘Why would he do that?’ She is very unhappy about it.”

“She always thought Jake was intelligent and charming. That’s why she’s so stunned by the photographs of Jake and Jen. She’s really hurt by what she’s seen. They seem to be very explicit and everyone knows Jennifer’s looking for love.”

Reese is rumoured to be seeing Jake after getting to know him on the set of their movie Rendition. Spokespeople for the pair refuse to comment on the relationship rumours.
