Ed Westwick: ‘Gossip Girl’ Star Turns 28 — Happy Birthday

Happy birthday, Ed Westwick! Our favorite ‘Gossip Girl’ hunk — sorry, Nate — and the man also known as Chuck Bass is turning the big 2-8 on June 27. Check out our gallery of his hottest pics!

It’s a big day for Ed Westwick! The sexy and swoonworthy star is celebrating his 28th birthday on June 27. He’s been one of our ultimate heartthrobs for years. The guy played the Chuck Bass. Let’s take a look at what’s in store for Ed this year as well as his sexiest pics!

Chuck Bass is and always will be one of the best television characters ever. The role was played flawlessly by Ed. He made being bad feel so, so good. Plus, Chuck Bass was one half of the greatest TV couple to ever hit The CW. Yeah, that’s right. We’re talking about Chuck and Blair.

Gossip Girl sadly came to an end in 2012, but Chuck Bass will live on forever. HollywoodLife.com spoke to Ed back in Dec. 2014 about the possibility of a reunion. “I think we enjoyed ourselves on what we did, but now everyone’s off doing their own thing,” Ed told us. “We’re all very happy for one another.”

Ed has moved on from the Upper East Side, with roles in Romeo & Juliet and Bone In The Throat. However, Ed is heading back to television. He’s the star of ABC’s Wicked City, and his character is straight-up evil. Ed plays Kent, a serial killer wreaking havoc in 1980s Los Angeles. Despite his wicked ways, he’s the sexiest murderer we’ve ever seen. We forgive him. Oh, and he’s got blonde hair now. Swoon.

Happy birthday, Ed. We hope you have such a wonderful day. We look forward to seeing you on our TV screens again soon. XOXO.
