Olympian Adam Rippon Finally Meets Sally Field's Son Sam Greisman
In February, Oscar winner Sally Field went full-on pushy mama, cheekily tweeting gay Olympian Adam Rippon a message her son Sam Greisman had posted about his unnamed Olympic crush.
"Sam... he's insanely pretty. Find a way.." she had replied to her son, which made her tweet at Adam a revelation that Adam was the object of Sam's affection.
Now, the two have met!
At Saturday evening's Human Rights Campaign Los Angeles Dinner, at which Adam received the Visibility Award for his "time, energy, spirit and whole-hearted commitment to bettering the lives of gay people," Sam tweeted an image of himself with his arm around Adam's shoulder, captioning it, "Thanks, mom."

It is unknown if they met briefly or had more time to hang out, but here's hoping Adam felt the same way about Sam that Oscar voters felt about Sally — that he liked him.
Also at the dinner were Adam's fellow out Olympian Gus Kenworthy with his boyfriend, actor Matthew Wilkas; social media sensation Gigi Gorgeous with Nats Getty; Rep. Maxine Waters (D-California); "Dancing with the Stars" champ Nyle DiMarco; Josh Duhamel; Jesse Tyler Ferguson & Justin Mikita; Peter Paige and many more.
