Sally Field is playing matchmaker between her son, Sam Greisman, and Olympic figure skater Adam Rippon.

Greisman, 30, has openly expressed interest in Rippon, 28, on Twitter with many admiring tweets.

“Gonna need a gif of @Adaripp saying he just wants to focus on being America’s Sweetheart for my daily use. Please and thank you,” Greisman posted in one tweet.  “Also marry me Adam.”

In another tweet he posted, “I hate being earnest but an openly, “non-passing”, sassy, beautiful gay 20-something daring America not to love him and becoming the sweetheart of the Olympic Games is very moving to me.” Before adding, “Glad so many people liked this, but if you could slide it into Adam’s DMs that would be great too.”

Greisman posted a screenshot of a text conversation with his mother that showed she was giving him advice to just make a move.

Field didn’t stop there and tagged Rippon to the tweet so he could see Greisman’s interest.

Griesman appeared embarrassed at first tweeting “Yikes” but Field’s other tweet seemed to get him back on board.

“You’re amazing @Adaripp. Your Olympics won’t be about Mike Pence. They will be about your excellence and your grace. And all the young boys and girls you’re inspiring,” Field tweeted.

Greisman gave his approval for that tweet replying, “She’ll do what she has to do. She’s not the worst wing woman.”
