The Love & Friendship star admitted that the postcard may have been forged. “EITHER I was a really tragic 13 year old with time on my hands OR Rob Lowe was all kinds of casual proposing marriage via a postcard of himself, signing his last name and drawing a dick instead of using a stamp. (found at my mum’s house),” she captioned the Tuesday, April 18, post.
