A different look at ED's guy :)

CUYou know, everyone's judging this guy. Meanwhile, the only times we really see ED (or, for that matter DB) is on-screen, made up for an event, or pics from a photo shoot. Not really fair. So, I found some pics of the guy from various movies and projects. In particular, check out the one with guys in army fatigues - he's the guy in-between them.

OK - this one is apparently mislabeled all over the internet, the guy next to the woman in the green print dress IS NOT EMILY'S BF. However her BF HAS written 14 episodes of this series between 2006-2009, acted in six, and was a supervising on eight eps in 2008. The guy stays busy!

In the process of checking on that, I found this -

And I added a shot with him and ED at the sketch comedy show in December) 2007. (Thanks meegs82! )

No, he isn't DB, but ugly? Not by a long shot. Furthermore, they both seem to be very low-key people not into the whole relationship-as-publicity thing. (you know the type. ) There really AREN'T a ton of pictures of them, and figuring out who he is took me a bit. They seem REALLY happy. These are a couple of the Monaco shots:

This is also them in Monaco - different angle than ones we've seen.

Incidentally, he has a movie coming out called "Pretty Bird." He's also a television writer and producer. Seems he and Emily have ALOT in common.

I know people get all caught up in ED and DB's working chemistry - but they ARE real people with their own lives. As fans, can't we just be happy that SHE'S happy, instead of wishing she'd fulfill some of our fanfiction fanstasies?

OK, I'm getting off my soapbox now. [Only admins are allowed to see this link]

I agree, I ran into him once and recognized him from Always Sunny, he was super nice and was like making jokes-seems like a genuinely nice guy

LOL no need to hide under a chair joybrennan I think most of us will agree with this very well made point.

Yes. I agree with you, Joy. I didn't mean to judge ED's guy. I just found out that she had a BF a couple days ago and I just didn't expect to see her with a guy like that (because the only other guy that I have seen her with is DB) But all that really matters is that he's a nice guy and that she's happy.

But I also understand why people are so judgy with this guy. Everyone has their own opinions about her relationship with David because they have great chemistry together and they are always so flirty with each other.

But I think all of us hope that they are both happy with their real life partners.

Also I just wanna stick a tiny little mod warning in, not because of any of the posts yet but just as a preventative measure.

Please be respectful of both the actors and their signifigant others.

Good idea. I hesitated doing the post for just that reason. But then I saw that army fatigues shot and thought - "OMG, he looks like Brad Pitt in that!"

This is very good idea. Many people have very strong opinions about Emily and David's relationship...But I think everyone on here seems so nice and understands that there is a difference between fiction and reality.

Okay, this is the second time I have sent this. Hopefully it doesn't show up twice. The first time, who knows where it went.

To Joy Brennan,

The second link you posted with the guy standing next to the girl in the green dress is NOT DAVID HORNSBY. It is Glenn Howerton who is a regular cast member of the show. David only was in a couple of episodes as a character.

Here is Glenn's page, where you can compare pictures. That picture you linked was the regular cast members. Glenn is NOT Emily's boyfriend. I hope you get a chance to edit your first comment on this thread. Rumors get started so easily.

Thank you,

I would have PM's you, but many people do not answer their PM's. You can PM me if you wish. I will read my PM's. Thanks again.

@ empiricist - thanks for the heads up! I managed to find a mislabeled photo of that one shot. I did change it in my post. We definitely don't want MORE rumors started! It's AMAZING the amount of garbage there is about celebrities on-line.

I don't know...I saw some of the stuff said in various places on-line about ED's boyfriend...it was pretty scary. I think we are much nicer, with a sense of fairness and reality here at the Aby. Right, Aby Community?

The picture of the two of them with her signing that poster...wasn't from last fall and it wasn't from a film screening. It's from December of 2007 and it was a sketch show that she was in..."The Strike Show." I was there.

Just thought I'd clear that up.

It's really cool of you, joybrennan, to post these! Love how respectful this thread is. Keep it up!

Thanks for both the feedback and the info!

A few years ago, Emily was seen leaving a party with that guy next to the girl in the green dress. Rumors got started...and everyone assumed that was her B/F. She released a statement through her PR that she was not dating him, but she was dating his friend, David Hornsby. I'm actually not positive her statement even said david's name...but it came out around then. Perhaps that's why it's confused on so many websites?

Her b/f also does the voice for fanboy on the nick show "fanboy and chum-chum" it's a pretty funny show and that voice makes kids laugh.

We don't see much of him. But, I really think he just stays out of the spotlight. Emily does too mostly. We see her at events and all but she's not all over the pages of tabloids and such like some other stars are.

Is he a full writer for it's always sunny, or has he just written a few episodes?

This is for all the posters who complained to the moderator about me , because they found my comments distasteful. I am pretty sure who you all are. If your objective was to get me off this blog because our opinions differed, you have succeeded. I WILL NEVER POST ON THIS BLOG AGAIN. There are other threads that I can post on where the posters are not so SENSITIVE and I don't have to walk on eggshells and watch what I say so I don't offend anybody. TO THE MODERATOR, who I exchanged posts with. THANK YOU, you were very nice about it. TO THE POSTER, who I have no doubt complained about me,I STILL THINK HER BF IS UGLY and I know you are not going to miss me.

let me just say that it wasn't me

Good find! Thanks for posting this link, it was really pretty funny. I think I like this guy's sense of humor. I had seen a couple other small things he written or whatever, online. It's an off beat/different type of humor (and some of it I could see some people finding maybe a bit offensive) but I thought it was hillarious.

I think in a interview she commented on his humor helping her when she got stressed out.

I have to say something and I am the type of girl who speaks her mind, so I'm going to say it. I like the people on the Aby, but especially after this whole thing about ED's BF, I really feel like I can never express my opinions anymore without offending anyone. Some other posters and I just made a comment about ED's boyfriend and how she and DB are really close in real life and suddenly posters are just all over me and there like, "OMG I can't believe you think ED's Bf is ugly and that she's in love with DB." I still don't think he's the best looking guy (because I'm just not into blondes) but I'm sure he's a nice, funny guy and I hope that they are happy together. I think she and DB seem like really close friends in real life and they are adorable together, but as far as being in love, I don't know. Nobody knows anything about what is going on between them but them.

@Joy-I agree with you that Emily deserves to be happy, but I also think this whole argument was blown out of proportions. It all started with some posters (including myself) commenting on how he's not the most attractive guy that they have seen. Every woman has there different tastes in men, so some woman might not like a certain type of guy, but others might, but I don't think it's a reason to bash someone for it. ED's guy might not be my taste, but if that's what she likes, I respect that and I hope she's happy...I'll get off my soap box now.

****And that is all I am going to say and won't not comment on this thread again.

oh yeah! i forgot. she said he'll listen to her complain or vent but then make her laugh and it helps her. That's all you need sometimes!

Hmm, ok, so looks-wise, he's not immediately my cup of tea. He's not stunningly gorgeous, but he's not unattractive either. However, I'm someone who doesn't care about looks. If someone's good looking, then then that's nice, but give me someone I can laugh and joke with any day, and someone who's on the same wavelength. Bit of a cliche, but I'd rather personality than a stunner. And if Emily is happy with her boyfriend, then who are we to criticise him or mock him or say he's not good enough for her?

Very well said.

Another interesting fact: guess who his brother is? Bruce Hornsby! Yes, "Mandolin Rain", "Every Little Kiss" - that Bruce Horn sby! So, not only do he and Emily have similar careers, they both have famous, touring, musician siblings! Talk about having things in common!

I was curious so I looked up Davids IMDB, it just says he's related, but not how, I also did a google search for both of them and only found a couple of online articles referring to Bruce and David's brother, but no quotes or interviews from either Bruce or David that state this, and given that Bruce has got to be at least 20 years older than David, I'm not so sure he's a brother.
