Jacob spotted alone

A fan spotted Gilles Jacob walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of April 1, 2025. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”
