Jake Gyllenhaal and Taylor Swift’s budding romance may be partially thanks to Gwyneth Paltrow, reports Us Weekly. Paltrow hosted a private dinner party for Swift and Gyllenhaal during their quiet trip to London on November 13th.  “Jake and Taylor were driven from the Dorchester hotel to Gwyneth and Chris Martin’s house in Primrose Hill for dinner,” explained an insider.  “Gwyneth seems to have played a role in their relationship.” When asked about the dinner party, Paltrow replied playfully, “I’ve just known Jake for a long time and he’s a great guy, and Chris has a friendship with Taylor.” Paltrow’s matchmaking seems to have paid off, for over Thanksgiving Swift and Gyllenhaal had many a coffee date.Who should be your matchmaker?
