If you haven’t already heard (we highly doubt it, but it could be possible), a Gilmore Girls reboot is coming to Netflix! We’ve seen many rumors and reports about who will be returning to Stars Hollow and who won’t, but now we’ve got a new, unexpected piece of information on the topic.
After Lauren Graham’s tenure as Lorelai Gilmore, she played another beloved television mom on Parenthood. During the show’s six seasons, she was mother to Mae Whitman’s character, Amber. Whitman (who you may recognize from The Duff) has always been a major Gilmore Girls fan. Lucky for her and partially due to the fact that she has an on- and off-screen relationship with Graham, she’s landed a cameo in the GG reboot!
Whitman is a die-hard fan, so we can’t imagine how starstruck be!
Well yknow had my dance class at Miss Patty’s n’ stopped in 4 a cuppa at Luke’s so thought I’d pop in and do a cameo https://t.co/jNEFby77nH

We can’t wait to see how this plays out, and we’re sure that Parenthood fans will enjoy the sly reference to Lauren Graham’s other alter ego, too!
