A writer over at Jezebel has heard from a reliable fashion-industry source that the New York Times unwittingly outed Jason Wu to his extended family. In the profile about the designer that ran in the paper last weekend, writer Eric Wilson mentions that Wu's boyfriend, Gustavo Rangel, who does finance for the designer's company, was waiting for Wu to finish a dress fitting so he could take him to a celebratory dinner. Apparently Wu's parents knew he was gay, but his other relatives did not, and his parents wish he could have been more "discreet." [Jezebel]
