Chord Overstreet is making headlines these days for his professional life and his personal life. The former first:

Following an uproar over news that Overstreet would not be returning to Glee, a Fox insider has now clarified the network’s stance: the show wants Chord back as Sam Evans.

“His option to be a series regular was just not picked up at this time,” says the source. “If Chord wants to appear on Glee, the choice is his. The Glee writers like his Sam character, and have plans to write for him.”

Moreover, this mole reports, if viewers continue to support Sam, Overstreet could receive his promotion “as early as January.”

Will Chord head back to William McKinley High School? It’s unclear. But he’ll likely talk over the decision with Emma Roberts.

The pair stepped out publicly for the first time this week, strolling around the streets of London and acting like a couple, onlookers say.

They are “definitely dating,” a friend tells Us Weekly. “They’re loving every second of being together.”
