Are Johnny Depp & Amber Heard ‘secretly engaged’ & preparing to announce?

Amber Heard

I don’t know whether I buy this story at all, but here comes the next chapter in the great Johnny Depp and Amber Heard romantic saga. These two worked together on The Rum Diary a few years ago and made eyes at each other on the publicity tour last summer, but they only made their official couple debut earlier this month at a Rolling Stones concert. Then we covered a Star story that discussed how Amber had really pushed hard for a public outing and even left Johnny when he refused to budge, so he begged her to come back. In the end, they supposedly waited so long to protect Vanessa Paradis’ feelings, which leads me to at least conclude that there might have been some overlap between Johnny’s two ladies.

Now there’s a new story that has originated in the latest issue of OK! magazine and is being run by Entertainmentwise, which supplies further details about Johnny and Amber’s “secret engagement.” (Note that Entertainmentwise credits this story to the National Enquirer, but other sources claim it’s in OK! It’s not in the new Enquirer.) Supposedly, Johnny put a patchouli ring on it, and he and Amber are waiting until the end of the year to make the big announcement. Is this actually going to happen?

Johnny Depp Amber Heard

Johnny Depp is rumoured to have got down on bended knee and secretly proposed to his girlfriend Amber Heard, according to a new report.

It’s been claimed by sources that the hot Hollywood couple have gotten engaged after Pirate of The Caribbean star Johnny popped the question on his 27-year-old beau’s birthday.

“He proposed on her birthday [April 22],” an insider told the National Enquirer.

The couple met when they filmed The Rum Diaries together in 2011 and have been dating on and off ever since, following Johnny’s split from long-term partner Vanessa Paradis.

Despite the massive step in their relationship, insiders say they intend to keep schtum on the news until the end of the year – but in the mean time the love-struck have apparently already started looking for a love nest to share together.

“They’re not announcing it until the end of the year, but she and Johnny are now on the hunt for a vintage one-of-a-kind ring.”

The couple were recently spotted holding hands at a Rolling Stones concert last month and it seems the show of affection along with the proposal could be down to the blonde actress demanding more commitment from the 49-year-old actor.

“She gave him an ultimatum, no woman wants to be someone’s dirty secret. A few months ago she took off to Paris and started dating French model Marie de Villepin. He offered her everything, even marriage, to come back,” the source explained.

“That was exactly what Amber wanted – for the world to know they’re together and for Johnny to put a ring on it. She’s had a crush on him since she was a teenager, so this is a dream come true!”

[From Entertainmentwise]

So do you believe this story? It kind of sounds like OK! was just making sh-t up because the Johnny and Amber romance was big news a few weeks ago, and an engagement would only sell more copy. However, I really don’t think Johnny is the marrying type at all. Clearly, he’s gaga over Amber and is embarrassing himself royally as a 49-year-old dude by falling for a 20-something blonde. Still, he and Winona Ryder were engaged but never made it to the altar; then Johnny was with Kate Moss for years; and finally, he stuck with Vanessa for over a decade without ever even thinking of marriage. At this point, he’d be dumb to jeopardize his fortune by marrying such a hot young thing like Amber.

Kate Hudson in a white Jenny Packham sweater dress: stunning or vanilla?


These are photos of Kate Hudson with her fiance, Matt Bellamy, and with her co-star, Riz Ahmed, at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of The Reluctant Fundamentalist. The film also features Kiefer Sutherland and Liev Schreiber. It’s about a Pakistani guy (Ahmed) who becomes a high-powered broker on Wall Street and goes through an identity crisis in the wake of 9-11. Hudson stars as his American girlfriend. I would say that the timing of this movie’s release is unfortunate, like the way that Gone Baby Gone suffered from the Madeleine McCann tragedy or how that Halle Berry movie, Things We Lost in the Fire, tanked due to the 2007 California wildfires. It’s hard to tell how this will do at the box office, and it’s only out in limited release starting this week. The trailer makes it look interesting and smart, and some aspects of the story remind me of “Homeland.” (I love that show!) Still, it’s hard to think about terrorism right now, it’s just way too raw for a lot of people.

Let’s focus on the fun superficial aspects of entertainment, like Kate Hudson’s gorgeous hair and white and silver sweater dress. She’s in Jenny Packham, one of Duchess Kate’s preferred designers. I’m personally not fond of straight up-and-down dresses, I know better than to try them on as they never flatter me, but in no way do I have a figure like Kate. (Either one of them.) So Kate H kind of works this dress, but it’s still not a standout. It’s kind of a snooze apart from the silver detailing. I love her hair! Does she have extensions, do you think? I think so, but I would bet they’re just subtle enough to make us question whether she has them.

Kate gave great bitchface last night. There are photos of her looking pissed off and giving the sideeye followed by photos of her flashing a sunny smile. I think her mom is just like that too – Goldie knows how to switch on the charm and Kate learned it from her. No judgment, I love Goldie!

Kiefer looking red. I wish Liev was there. I would take him with or without Naomi.

Oh and after I wrote this story it occurred to me to google Kate H to see if she’s said anything notable recently. She did! She told Extra! that she’ll get married to her fiance, Matthew Bellamy, eventually (I think she doesn’t care, which is the right attitude to have) and that her 21 month-old son is doing great and is adorable basically:

“I look forward to it,” the Reluctant Fundamentalist actress tells Extra of tying the knot. “We’ll both figure it out. We’ve been both very busy, but it will happen.”

Hudson… says she’s been too busy taking care of sons Ryder and Bingham to plan a ceremony. “He is a gem. He is talking up a storm,” the actress, 34, says of Bingham, 21 months. “I’ll ask, ‘What do you want for breakfast, honey?’ He says, ‘Bolognese.’”

At the Tiffany & Co. Blue Book Ball in New York City Apr. 18, Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell’s actress daughter told Us Weekly her youngest son is taking after his musician father, 34. “Bing right now is just completely obsessed with drumming. He’s just a drummer,” Hudson shared. “It’s pretty wild to watch. It’s all he wants to do.”

[From US Weekly]

That’s cute! Kate’s been married already and that didn’t really work out for her. She’s been engaged for two years, so I bet she doesn’t plan on getting married anytime soon. If she did, she would have at least made plans by now. I think she should take a lesson from her Mom and Kurt Russell and just keep things as they are. There’s no reason to make it official – unless Matt needs a green card or something.

Alexis Bledel shows off her pretty engagement ring: ‘Vincent picked it out!’

I was excited to write this story but then I realized that we didn’t really have a good angle on Alexis Bledel’s engagement ring. I’m including the blurry, super-cropped photo of her engagement ring below, but you can see a much better photo of it here at Us Weekly. Us Weekly describes the ring as “huge”.

Is that “huge”? CB and I were debating it. If we saw a lady with that ring in real life, just walking around, we would be like “Awesome ring, so big!” But as far as celebrity standards go, this ring seems like it’s on the small side. Like, I kind of think it’s under 3 carats. Which is totally fine, and Alexis is a small woman with small hands, and the size probably suits her just fine. My guess is that she probably prefers her “normal” ring as opposed to some huge rock that she always worries about losing or that she can’t wear to certain events because the size makes it seem tacky and inappropriate (cough… Angelina).

These pics are from the red carpet premiere of Remembering Sunday, the TV movie Alexis did with Zachary Levi. Us Weekly spoke to her on the carpet about her ring, and she said: “Vincent picked it out.” The ring is described as a round-cut diamond on a platinum band. Simple. Classic. Vincent Kartheiser has surprisingly nice taste. And I like that he picked it out and he seemed to really think about what ring would suit her. Alexis also said that she and Vincent are planning their wedding “together” but they “haven’t started yet though.” Aw. They’re a really cute couple. Oh, and Alexis’s dress here is Pamela Roland.

Avril Lavigne on her wedding to Nickelback’s Chad Kroeger: it will be ‘spectacular’


These are photos of Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger (of Nickelback) out in LA a couple of days ago. Avril is sporting some really ratty too-long extensions here. She shaved half her head in September so it’s not like it’s grown out to nearly her waist in the interim. I love how they’re color coordinated in all-black with bleached blonde hair. They look sympatico.

As you once knew and have forgotten by now, these two are engaged. Because when you get two washed up Canadian musicians with inflated senses of talent and self worth together – magic happens. These two consider their love story magical, too. Avril and Chad were in a joint interview with Ryan Seacrest when they discussed how they met (in the studio!) and how they just knew they were meant for each other, from the very start. They also divulge that they’re planning a small-ish wedding but that it will be “spectacular” and have some kind of theme, which Avril is trying to keep a secret from Chad. I’m guessing it will involve black skulls and pink hearts. Here’s more, thanks to US Magazine:

“When you’re sitting there across from someone singing into the microphone and you’re singing a love song, you start to develop feelings for them,” Kroeger, 38, told Ryan Seacrest in a joint interview with Lavigne on Tuesday, April 9. “And it just kind of blossomed into this kind of thing and the next thing you know … we started dating [last summer].”

Lavigne added that fellow Canadian Kroeger was quick to make his feelings be known — and she immediately reciprocated.

“We started dating and the next day he was like, ‘You know I’m gonna marry you,’” the “Complicated” singer recalled. “And I said, ‘I know.’ It was one of those things that we just knew.”
Kroeger and Lavigne, 28, announced their engagement last August after just one month of dating, surprising both family and fans.

“Things just clicked real quick,” Kroeger had told radio station K104.7 in April, prior to their engagement. “And then she wanted me to sing on one of [her songs] and then we just started flying on all these different songs.”

Lavigne’s interpretation of their whirlwind relationship is likewise simple. “Well that’s how we met — in the studio — and I was really excited to work with him because he’s also a musician,” she told Seacrest of how their relationship developed. “[We] wrote a bunch of songs together, became really good friends and now we have a wedding.”

Indeed! As Lavigne prepares to launch her first album since 2011′s Goodbye Lullaby (the pair collaborate on several songs, including the new single “Here’s To Never Growing Up”), the couple is also planning a “spectacular” wedding together, Lavigne told Seacrest.

“It’s kind of just a lot of close friends and family. It is smaller,” she said of their plans. “[But] it’s gonna be quite spectacular and there’s a theme to it. But Chad doesn’t even know everything.”

Agreed Kroeger: “Every man knows that we get very little participation in the planning — and these are good things.”

[From US Magazine]

I’m being sarcastic in that intro, as is my default setting, but this is kind of sweet! I don’t expect these two to last more than a couple of years post-wedding, but it’s still sweet. I remember covering Avril’s first wedding, to another Canadian singer, Sum 41′s Deryck Whibley, back in 2006. Those two were even conveniently papped on their honeymoon in Portofino, Italy. I know it’s been seven years and a lot can change in that time, and a lot did change for Avril. She divorced Deryck Whibley after about three years, dated Brandon Davis, got serious with Brody Jenner before eventually realizing that was a bad idea, and then quickly fell in love with Chad Kroeger. This is a woman who seems to get serious fast. She’s still just 28 and this will be her second marriage. I’m thinking she shouldn’t make it official, but I do want to see the photos! This is going to be one trashy Ed Hardy wedding. What do you think the theme will be though, Nightmare Before Christmas? That might be cute.

These two in September in Paris. Romantic.

Sara Gilbert is engaged to Linda Perry after the ‘most amazing proposal ever’

Sara Gilbert

I’ve never watched a single episode of “The Talk,” but I do have fond memories of Sara Gilbert as the smartass daughter on “Rosanne” as well as in that so-awful-it-was-compelling Drew Barrymore movie, Poison Ivy (which somehow spawned several direct-to-dvd sequels). In her personal life, Sara has been officially out as lesbian since 2010 although she and former partner Allison Adler were together since 2001 and split in August 2011. Shortly thereafter, Sara started dating Linda Perry, who is the former lead singer of 4 Non Blondes (and now I’ll have their signature song, “What’s Up” in my head for the rest of the day) and currently works as a songwriter. Now Linda has proposed to Sara, and they’re engaged!

Sara Gilbert

What’s goin’ on with Sara Gilbert and songwriter girlfriend Linda Perry? They’re getting married! Actress and TV personality Gilbert, 38, announced their engagement on the Monday, April 8 episode of “The Talk” — explaining that the former 4 Non Blondes frontwoman, 47, recently popped the question with an elaborate, musical proposal in an L.A. park.

Perry (who has written hit songs for the likes of Pink, Christina Aguilera, Gwen Stefani and many others) arranged for a guitarist, brass band and other musicians to play their song, The Cure’s “Love Song.” The Grammy winner then donned a series of five different t-shirts reading “Will You Marry Me?” word by word.

On hand for the elaborate romantic gesture: their moms and several friends.

“I think that’s it and it’s like the most amazing proposal ever . . . ” Gilbert told her fellow “Talk” co-hosts, but Perry had one more trick up her sleeve: 80s rocker John Waite, crooning one of Gilbert’s favorite (sad) love songs, “Missing You.” “We had our proposal with our breakup song, which is great,” Gilbert cracked.

Former Roseanne star Gilbert came out as a lesbian in 2010 — revealing that she and TV producer Alison Adler had been in a longterm relationship since 2001. The former couple share son Levi, 8 and daughter Sawyer, 5, and split in August 2011. Gilbert and Perry stepped out later that year.

[From Us Weekly]

Well, that was quick work. Compared to Sara being in another relationship for a decade and never getting engaged, now she’s with Linda, and this has happened relatively fast. I guess when you know … you just know, right? Congratulations to Linda and Sara!

Enquirer: Christina Aguilera is shedding for her second wedding, this summer


Christina Aguilera made an appearance at the premiere of season 4 of The Voice (for which she is not a judge), looking slimmed down, sober, and much healthier than we’ve seen her recently. She was wearing toned-down, neutral makeup and although she had on some obvious body glitter she hadn’t spray tanned herself into a day glow orange creature. It was a massive improvement for Christina, and I wondered if it was some kind of breakup makeover. She’s been dating a sycophantic hanger-on, a set assistant on her movie Burlesque named Matt Rutledge, basically since the end of her marriage in 2010 (and probably before). Christina continues to be spotted out with Matt, and The Enquirer claims that her new look is in preparation for a summer wedding. It’s a good theory actually:

Love drove Christina Aguilera to lose a whopping 25 pounds!

The 5’2″ Grammy winner – who know tips the scales at a healthy 125 pounds – is getting in top shape for her wedding to boyfriend Matthew Rutler, sources told the Enquirer…

“Christina is sprucing up and losing weight because she and Matt are planning to tie the know this summer,” revealed an insider.

“She wants a small, at-home affair without too much fuss.

“She decided to give herself a major slim-down as a pre-wedding present, and feels she looks great at 125 pounds.”

To beat the bloat, the perky 32 year-old pop star has been working out five days a week and sticking to a largely fish-and-vegetable diet, revealed the source.

“Christina also dialed back her drinking to two days a week, usually the weekend. She just has a glass of wine with dinner…”

Initially, Christina feared that production assistant Matt, her boyfriend of more than two years, was after her $100 million fortune, but she’s finally said yes to his repeated marriage proposals, revealed the insider.

“She’s ready to embark on a new life with a new hot body.” [From The National Enquirer, print edition, April 15, 2013]

I don’t care about Christina and find her to be an entitled brat, so basically I hope this is true. While it’s technically not a good idea for her to get married to this guy, it would be good gossip, is what I’m saying. Plus I shouldn’t disparage him, he’s been around for over two years and has taken care of XTina during some of her most drunken diva moments (that’s not just conjecture) so he put in his time. If she’s smart she’ll get a pre-nup, but she’s not known for being anything but delusional. Plus we’ve heard rumors for years that Christina wants to marry this guy.

Maybe she did lose weight and sober up in preparation for her wedding. She does look great. If that’s the case, and she’s marrying the guy who enabled her for so many years, it might not last for her, but I could be wrong!

Hayden Panettiere & Wladimir Klitschko are engaged: cute couple or disaster?


Just yesterday we saw some photos of Hayden Panettiere and her on-again hulk of a lover, boxing great Wladimir Klitschko, looking loved up courtside. I was a little giddy about their reconciliation because I’m a big fan-girl of Wladimir’s and they looked really cute together. You could see how into each other they are. Now there’s news that they’re engaged, which doesn’t sound like the worst idea but gives me some pause. They just got back together in January of this year and they’re engaged already?

Hayden Panettiere and boxer Wladimir Klitschko are going the distance during round 2! The Nashville star, who reconciled with her Ukrainian boyfriend in January, is now planning their wedding, a source tells Us Weekly.
“Very few people know, and she isn’t wearing her ring publicly yet,” adds the friend of the duo, who first parted ways in May 2011 after two years of dating.

Since getting back together, the actress, 23, and the athlete, 37, have refused to confirm their relationship. (Despite multiple PDA-packed outings — including a cuddly March 24 courtside appearance at a Miami Heat game — Panettiere said they were “just good buddies” in mid-January).

Privately, however, the 5-foot-2 knockout and the 6-foot-6 heavyweight champ are eager to legalize their match. Says the source, “Looks like a summer wedding!”

[From US Weekly]

I think Hayden is pushing these stories and that Wladimir values his privacy somewhat. They did break up the last time right after she humble-bragged on the Ellen show about their sex life, and I don’t think that was a coincidence. So this story from an unnamed source probably comes from her camp. It’s US Weekly after all.

I don’t hate this idea that they’re engaged, but I hope they wait to get married and aren’t going to rush into it this summer. Hayden broke up with her last boyfriend, football player Scotty McNight, in December. Then she got back together with Wladimir in January. (They were together from about 2009 – 2011 the first time.) She doesn’t waste time. She’s only 23, I don’t think she she marry this one. I learned during my dating life that you break up with someone for a reason and that the old problems will resurface again if you get back together. Plus I’m confusing her a little with her Nashville character. Remember what happened when Juliette Barnes got married?

Alexis Bledel & Vincent Kartheiser are engaged, she’s flashing a ‘huge’ rock

Yes, there are LOTS of hair issues in this post (my God…), but there’s also really, really good news! Vincent Kartheiser and Alexis Bledel are engaged! Sources confirmed the engagement to Us Weekly, and other sites are running it like it’s totally confirmed, so let’s go with it. I know a lot of you love Alexis because of Gilmore Girls, but I never watched that, so my only real exposure to her was on last season’s Mad Men, where she guest-starred as a really mixed-up young wife and mother, like she was someone out of a Sylvia Plath poem (the Plath references were heavy in those episodes). Her character had an affair with Vincent Kartheiser’s Pete Campbell and it was a mess, but they had a lot of chemistry together. But that’s just me – although Pete is such a douchebag, I love Kartheiser and I think he’s incredibly talented. Vincent and Alexis have been together for about a year, and now they’re engaged?

Rory may have turned down Logan’s proposal at the end of Gilmore Girls, but in real life, Alexis Bledel is happily engaged! Alexis, 31, said “yes” to boyfriend Vincent Kartheiser, 33, “a few weeks ago” and is proudly showing off her “huge” engagement ring, Us Weekly is reporting.

And it sounds like Vincent’s proposal had been in the works for a while. The source adds that when he and Alexis attended the wedding of David Cross and Amber Tamblyn — who co-starred with Alexis in the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants movies — he was telling fellow partygoers that he hoped to put a ring on his then-girlfriend’s finger soon!

“He was saying they might elope and do parties in New York, L.A. and her hometown, Houston,” the source reveals.

One of the biggest killers of Hollywood marriages is distance, but it sounds like Alexis’ husband-to-be has that all figured out.

“The most important thing for us is to make sure that we see each other in the flesh at least every 10 days,” Vincent once told the mag. “I’m a really lucky guy!”

[From Hollywood Life]

Aw. I think it’s cute. And I think this is probably for real too – although I’m doubtful about the size of the engagement ring. Vincent seems like the kind of hippie/granola guy who wouldn’t spend the money on a huge rock. But who knows, maybe he’s changed? Maybe he has a working toilet now. Maybe he just fell in love HARD and he wants to give her everything.

PS… Am I the only one who thinks Alexis could be a Deschanel sister?

Jesse James will marry his fourth wife later this month: great idea?


As we heard back in November, serial cheater and professional victim Jesse James is engaged for the fifth time for what will be his fourth marriage. (If he goes through with it.) Jame’s future bride is a “35″ year-old drag racer named Alexis Dejoria, who is the daughter of billionaire Paul Mitchell haircare founder, John Paul Dejoria. According to Star Magazine, Jesse and Alexis are planning to marry by the end of March, and they’re serious about it. I checked their social media accounts (and they have a lot of them) and I’m believing it. They tweet photos and messages to each other all the time, and their children are hanging out together. Jesse’s daughter Sunny looks like she’s friends with Alexis’ daughter.

Baby boy biker Jesse James is set to marry his latest fiancee, Alexis DeJoria, at the end of March, Star magazine is exclusively reporting.

The cheating ex-hubby of Sandra Bullock, who has been dating the race car driver for around six months,will say “I do” in a private ceremony in Malibu, according to Star.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Jesse, 43, and Alexis, 35, began dating around September last year.

Alexis is the daughter of billionaire John Paul DeJoria, co-founder of the Paul Mitchell line of hair-care products, the Patron Spirits Company and the House of Blues nightclub chain.

His other financial interests include dealerships for speedboats and Harley Davidson motorcycles.

“Jesse’s always had a man crush on John Paul,” an insider tells Star. “And what better way to get close to him than to get hitched to his daughter?

“But this marriage will be his fourth. If I were John Paul – after what Jesse put Sandra through – I’d be warning him up front that when it comes to Alexis, he’d better watch his butt!”

[From Radar Online]

I was ready to hate all over this story until I saw the photo of their adorable girls together. Yes Jesse cheats on everyone, even his girlfriends, and yes he has no sense of personal responsibility and any woman who gets with him should realize what she’s getting into. But for his youngest daughter’s sake I hope he’s changed. Sunny didn’t ask to have a porn star drug addict mom and a sex addict dad with a whiny baby voice. She’s just a little kid (and my son is around that age so I feel for her) who is getting some stability and a sense of family from her dad’s latest relationship, which has lasted all of six months. Why shouldn’t he make it official and try to make this feeling of domestic bliss last? It’s not like he wrote a book about how marriage made him feel so trapped that he decided to cheat as a way out. Here’s an excerpt from his book, American Outlaw:

You’re trapped, I thought suddenly. It came out of nowhere, but you’re trapped pretty good, aren’t you?

Before I met Sandy, I’d romanticized the stable, calm married life: the idea of me finally growing up. But now I missed… talking shit, cracking jokes with my no-good friends. Too many people knew me now. I couldn’t escape…

Mentally at a loss, desperate for something to make me feel like I had some sense of freedom, I ran through the list of things I could do to assert independence over my life. Infidelity, unfortunately, was at the top of my list.

[via Celebitchy]

But this one is different, right? She lets him be himself. Look she shoots guns with him on Valentine’s Day! How romantic. Kat Von D was such a buzzkill.

Further evidence that these two are either planning to wed or already have: this bizarre cake that Alexis tweeted.

Alison Pill & Jay Baruchel have called off their Canadian hipster engagement

Before everyone screams “WHO?” at me, I’ll explain. Alison Pill is best known as the sometimes ginger, sometimes blonde character actress currently starring in The Newsroom, but I know her best from her work in Milk and Midnight in Paris (she played Zelda Fitzgerald). You can see her IMDB here. You may now Jay Baruchel from Tropic Thunder or any of the millions of character roles he’s done. Anyway, Jay and Alison were together. They were engaged. They got a lot of attention last year when Alison “accidentally” tweeted a topless photo of herself to Jay and it ended up going out to all of her Twitter followers. And now Jay and Alison are done!

The wedding is off for good. After a two-year engagement, Alison Pill and Jay Baruchel have broken up. The Canadian stars have called off their engagement and gone their separate ways, Us Weekly confirms.

The This Is the End actor hinted about their split on Twitter Feb. 16. “Alone again, naturally. Heartbroken,” he wrote in a message that he later deleted. “I won’t be on twitter for awhile gang. Getting dumped rules.”

Baruchel, 30, and Pill, 27, became engaged in December 2010 after meeting on the set of hockey flick Goon. The twosome had plans to wed in September 2012 in Quebec.

“We’re getting married at an ice wine vineyard. Me and the groomsmen will all be wearing kilts!” the Tropic Thunder actor told Us in February 2012. “We’ll be welcomed in by uilleann pipers. It will be a very small, 70 person wedding, just friends and family.”

But in an interview with Victoria’s Times Colonist last month, Baruchel explained why the wedding never happened. “Unfortunately, we’re two busy people who are intrinsically lazy,” he said. “So in our free time, the last thing we want to do is book flights and organize hotel rooms for people.” He added, “But it’ll happen at some point.”

Or not at all, as it turns out. On Sunday, March 3, a solo Pill attended the 30th annual PaleyFest for The Newsroom at Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills. Smiling on the carpet, the HBO actress was missing one conspicuous accessory for her photo op: her engagement ring.

Why did the pair decide to split for good? A source tells Us that their long distance relationship became too difficult to manage.

“Working and living in Canada is something that [Baruchel] is very passionate about. He wanted her up there more often, but she really likes Newsroom and the opportunities that are there for her,” the insider explains. “They were doing the long distance [thing] a lot.”

Baruchel’s rep did not respond for comment.

[From Us Weekly]

And when asked about the wedding over the weekend, Alison told ET Canada, “There will be none.” So Jay is tweeting about getting dumped and Alison is acting all “Whatever, I’ll be the harsh one.” Which makes me wonder if there’s some other backstory here. Hm.
