After I posted this story about actress Gabbrielle Union’s “new man”, she quickly took to her Twitter page to clarify the situation. It seems that the man photographed shopping with Gabby in the “Meatpacking” district of NY is actually a close friend of hers, who just happens to be gay.

Unfortunately, I don’t spend a lot of time on Twitter, so Gabby’s tweet to me got lost in the clutter that is my timeline.

“I love tht my “new man”…has a man! Yeahhhh…I guess the TRUTH aint get in the way of a good story! Lol Come on son…LAME …my “new man’s” BOYFRIEND is hot & they’re a proud out couple RUMOR! My FRIEND is happily engaged 2 his boyfriend”

We here at Sandrarose.com pride ourselves on our credibility and integrity. If we report something that is inaccurate we take immediate steps to correct it. We apologize to Ms. Gabrielle Union and her friend, and we regret the error.

According to Gabby’s close friend, and loyal reader, Itika Oldwine:

Sandra, Just wanted to clarify this story. That is NOT Gabby’s new man in the photos. He is actually a very dear friend of hers and mine. He is also openly gay. His fiance was actually with them when they were out in the meat packing district when these photos were taken. Just thought you might want to know the facts
