Jake's Ryan Phillippe Takeover Almost Complete

A few weeks after Reese Witherspoon's divorce from Ryan Phillippe became final, Jake Gyllenhaal has pulled off a secret move into Reese's $5 million L.A. home.

And word on the street is that Hollywood's most boring unmarried couple is getting verrrrry serious.

In addition to subbing in for Ryan as surrogate daddy to the kids, Jake is already considered 'party of the family.'

'Marriage is definitely what they are working toward,' says one Reese insider.  Another friend dishes: 'they literally don't want to spend any time away from each other.' 

According to another report, Reese has actually purchased a home in Notting Hill just to be close to Jake, who's supposedly filming a movie there.  Fashion.ie reports:

• 'Reese Witherspoon and her two children have just moved into a £1.9 million house in the cosmopolitan district of “Notting Hill." The romantic 32-year-old star took a four-month break from work so she can be closer to Brokeback Mountain actor Jake, who is currently filming in London.'

For the record, I have no idea what fashion.ie is, so that the London dish could be completely made up.  But the point is: Ryan Phillippe is soooo fired.

Reese can try to pull of the whole Demi Moore/Bruce Willis/Ashton Kutcher union, but until Jake and Ryan develop a twenty-five year age gap, homeboys are gonna be stepping on each other's toes like two egos in a boxing ring.

Yup.  It's over.  Pretty soon Ryan's kids will even be calling him 'Uncle Ry.'  He should just go start a new family with Abbie Cornish...
