Cheryl Cole doesn't wear ring for fashion

British pop star Cheryl Cole, who married English footballer Ashley Cole in a $1.5 million ceremony in 2006, has been spotted recently without her diamond engagement ring. The move has led to rumours that the couple's marriage, rocked by reports that he had cheated in 2008, was in trouble.

But the former Cheryl Tweedy is adamant that she only removes her ring in the name of fashion, telling Britain's Glamour magazine, "Do people really think I'm going to have an argument and take my ring off? It was a fashion statement more than a marriage statement. As my wedding ring is yellow it doesn't go with everything."

Robbie Williams wants Valentine's Day wedding?

The rumours don't stop coming. Following the rumour that rapper Jay-Z would like to plan pop singer Robbie Williams' upcoming wedding to actress Ayda Field (which is itself still just a rumour), comes reports that the couple will marry on Valentine's Day next month.

A source close to Williams told Britain's Daily Star that, "Robbie doesn't want to have a long, drawn-out engagement. When he gets something in his head, there's no stopping him. He's asked all his friends and family to keep the entire week free leading up to February 14, so they can have a week-long celebration before Valentine's Day. He has asked best friend Jonathan Wilkes to be best man and it's likely Take That will perform."

Robbie is said to have booked two potential venues in Santa Barbara, California for the wedding, and is planning week-long celebrations with family and friends. The celebrity guest list is expected to include Robbie's former Take That bandmates Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, Mark Owen and Jason Orange.

CSI: Miami's Eva LaRue again engaged to John Cappuccio

After appearing on the cover of InStyle Weddings last spring, discussing her wedding plans to businessman John Cappuccio, actress Eva LaRue of CSI: Miami fame has again announced their engagement.

The couple initially got engaged in 2008 while on a romantic holiday at Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, after an elephant ride and a helicopter tour over the Falls, but split before a planned Caribbean wedding in June 2009. Reconciling in November, Cappuccio again proposed while the couple dined together in Bora Bora to celebrate the New Year's holiday. Apparently, including an elephant in your proposal is suddenly in style.

Arriving together at the Palm Springs International Film Festival on Tuesday, LaRue showed off her four-carat cushion-cut diamond engagement ring, surrounded by smaller pink stones. Discussing wedding plans, LaRue said the couple is eyeing a destination wedding - maybe in Thailand - and could be married within six months.

La Rue was once married to Family Feud host John O'Hurley, and has a daughter, eight-year-old Kaya, with her second husband, former All My Children costar John Callahan.

'Spinster' Susan Boyle gets two marriage proposals

Touching down in Tokyo to promote her bestselling album this week, Scottish singer Susan Boyle recieved two marriage proposals from excited fans just minutes after leaving the plane.

Says fan Akiyama Hanako, 56, who waited seven hours for a glimpse of Boyle at the airport, "There is so much affection for Susan. She is an idol to us, everyone wants to meet her. I was near the front but got pushed aside when she appeared. One gentlemen kept saying 'Susan, kekkon shite kudasai!' He was asking her to marry him over and over again."

Last year, during her rise to unexpected fame on the British reality TV series Britain's Got Talent, Boyle was famous quoted as saying that she had never had a boyfriend, and had "never even been kissed."

Shakira no closer to marrying fiance

Colombian "She Wolf" singer Shakira was recently spotted wandering the beach hand in hand with her fiance, Antonio de la Rua, in Punta del Este, Uruguay - close to where she owns a ranch. In spite of their happiness together, the couple is in no hurry to wed.

The couple are approaching their tenth anniversary. After de la Rua proposed in 2001, it was reported that the pair would marry in 2007 at her home in the Dominican Republic, but it never happened. Media then either speculated that the private pair had wed in secret or had split, but neither turned out to be true.

On her Twitter last September, Shakira addressed the rumours by saying, "We are neither married nor fighting. We are very together and very good. 9 years!"

Carrie Underwood wants a big-haired wedding

Currently planning her wedding to Ottawa Senators hockey star Mike Fisher, country singer Carrie Underwood was happy to display her $150,000 yellow-diamond Johnathon Arndt engagement ring - offering a much better view than the first glimpse a few weeks ago at a Senators' home game.

She talked to both Us and People while she navigated the red carpet at last night's People's Choice Awards, offering both some details on her wedding plans.

She told Us, "I bought a lot of magazines and am cutting out pictures. I have a folder and I cut out pictures and glue them in. It’s in kind of a binder thing."

Of her dress, the undecided star says she'll probably go with, "someone I’ve worked with before that I know I can work well with" to design it. "I want something pretty traditional," she said. "Maybe with flowers on it - not like real flowers!"

Telling People that all she really wants is "a groom, good food, and an open bar," she told them of how she hoped to look on her big day: "I'm Southern. I like big hair and eyeliner. I want my wedding day to be me, so I'll probably be rocking some big hair and some eyeliner."

The newly engaged couple have not yet set a wedding date.

How Russell Brand proposed to Katy Perry

Confirming their engagement after less than four months of dating, People dug up some details on how comedian Russell Brand proposed to singer Katy Perry. The couple stayed for a few days in a presidential suite at the Taj Rambagh Palace in Jaipur, India, and for dinner one night, Brand asked the hotel to arrange a special dining experience for the couple.

They ate under the stars in the garden lit by candles, and at midnight enjoyed New Year's fireworks while sitting on an elephant (at Brand's request). When Perry found a diamond ring hidden in some flowers, Brand proposed and she accepted.

There are some reports that the couple could marry in Britain within the next six months, but Brand's rep could not confirm the timing of the wedding or that he had purchased the ring before Christmas, when paparazzi spotted him at Cartier in London.

Bachelorette Jillian Harris sets wedding date

Recently, RadarOnline interviewed Chris Harrison, the host of the Bachelor series, to get scoop on the current season, starring pilot Jake Pavelka.

During the interview, he also revealed that last season's star, restaurant designer Jillian Harris, had set a wedding date with her final rose choice, Chicago exec Ed Swiderski.

"They have a time, a date, and a place set, and despite what was crazily reported and all that stuff, they are doing fantastic!"

Last summer, when Harris selected Swiderski on the show and they announced their engagement, some of Swiderski's ex-girlfriend's claimed he had cheated on Jillian since taping had finished.With their celebrity status, being attacked is part of the deal but to be attacked like they were absolutely affected them and it was tough for them to deal with. I mean they kind of leaned on the producers, leaned on me, and leaned on their friends, and they've just tried to get away from it.

"With their celebrity status, being attacked is part of the deal - but to be attacked like they were absolutely affected them and it was tough for them to deal with. They're kind of like, 'What the hell are you gonna do?' They are living their lives and they are doing good."

Harrison didn't give any hints on the where and when of the couple's nuptuals. It has previously been reported that the couple were eyeing a simple wedding this summer.

Really Ridiculous: Jay-Z wants to plan Robbie Williams' wedding

Sometimes, the tabs try so hard to get an interesting headline, they don't care how stupid it sounds - or they're just too stupid to realize it sounds as stupid as it does. And The Sun is the guilty party this time around.

We present their report that rapper Jay-Z wants to stick his neck out and plan pop singer Robbie Williams' wedding to American actress Ayda Field. Williams has not even confirmed the engagement rumours, though Field has been spotted out wearing a diamond ring on that finger.

In a fairly generic, likely made-up quote, the rapper - who married singer Beyonce Knowles on April 4, 2008 - tells The Sun, "I would be happy to help Robbie organise his wedding. I am sure he will make it an extravagant party. I had my 40th birthday last month in the Dominican Republic. That would be a great place for Robbie's wedding. It's the most stunning place on earth. It has everything - beautiful beaches, scenery, golf courses - and is easy to fly guests to."

Jay-Z reportedly continued, "The entertainment at my party was all hot and if Robbie wants my help he should come over for dinner and Beyonce and I can help him out. She is great at organising parties, she loves it. I don't know what Robbie's entertainment plans are, but as a wedding present, I would get up after the speeches and do a little set."

As you can tell by the mock-up photo out of the British press, it's unclear whether Jay-Z and Robbie Williams have ever even met, just that they both performed at the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards.

Marilyn Manson engaged to Evan Rachel Wood in Paris?

Though unconfirmed by reps, goth rocker Marilyn Manson, 41, proposed to actress Evan Rachel Wood, 22, live on stage during his show in Paris on Monday, January 4th, reports The Mirror. The actress is said to have delightedly accepted.

Manson and Wood dated for roughly two years before splitting last winter. Wood took that time to date her former Once & Again costar Shane West and nab a stellar role on the hit HBO series True Blood, while Manson told Spin.com that "I have fantasies every day about smashing her skull in with a sledgehammer." They apparently reconciled late in 2009.

So few people ever saw these two together, when they broke up it seemed like life's natural progression. This feels like the kind of thing that leads the universe toward 2012. If it's true, that is.

This will be the first marriage for Wood, who starred in the musical Across the Universe, and the second for Manson, who was married to burlesque performer Dita Von Teese from 2005-06. He was engaged to actress Rose McGowan in the late '90s.

Polygamist president takes another wife

South African president Jacob Zuma, 67, was married on Monday, January 4, 2010 to his third wife, 36-year-old Thobeka Mabhija, in a traditional Zulu ceremony in the village of Nkandla in the country's KwaZulu-Natal province.

The polygamist couple, already married in the eyes of the the South African government, performed traditional dance, dressed in traditional animal pelts and white tennis shoes, for roughly 2,000 wedding guests. The guests savoured traditional Zulu foods during the ceremony, including several cows, sheep, and goats slaughtered for the occasion.

Zuma is currently married to two other women, Sizakele Khumalo and Nompumelelo Ntuli, and is said to be planning to wed a fourth (and sixth overall) - Gloria Bongi Ngema - later this year. He has attended official engagements with all of his wives, making them collective First Ladies. Under Zulu law, his two current wives had to approve the union - for which Zuma paid a dowry to Mabhija's family in 2007 - and attend the ceremony, the last step in the Zulu tradition of marriage.

In 1998, Zuma was divorced from his second wife, South African Home Affairs Minister Nkosazana Dlamini, and in 2000 Kate Mantsho, his third wife, died. He has a total of 19 children with various wives and previous girlfriends.

It's reported that the celebrations began New Year's Eve, when Vaughn hosted a party at his Chicago penthouse. On the morning of the wedding, guests were shuttled by bus from the Knickerbocker Hotel in downtown Chicago to the wedding venue.

Tila Tequila's fiancee found dead

On Monday, January 4th, police were called to the home of 30-year-old Casey Johnson, heiress to the pharmaceutical giant Johnson & Johnson, where the L.A. socialite was found dead from a suspected drug overdose. Recent reports have suggested that Johnson may have been dead in her home for days before she was found.

Johnson, who adopted an almost three-year-old daughter she named Ava Monroe from Kazakhstan in March 2007, had been engaged to Tila Tequila, star of VH1's A Shot at Love for 3 seasons. Tequila took to her Twitter to announce their engagement last month.

Though they had been engaged - and Tequila referred to her on Twitter as "Wifey" - the reality TV star had been out of town in the first few days of 2010, and following a fight a few days before New Year's Eve, had not been in contact with the socialite since December 28th, the last time that Johnson left Tila's home.

Constantly Twittering her feelings throughout the ordeal, Tequila said of her fiancee: "u will forever be in my heart! I love u so so much and we will Marry when I see U in Heaven my Wifey."

Carrie Underwood: Fiance's a better wedding planner than he thought!

In an interview with Ottawa sports radio station Team 1200, the official radio station of her future hubby, Mike Fisher's, Ottawa Senators NHL hockey team, country singer Carrie Underwood dished on some of her wedding planning since getting engaged on December 20th.

Talking to host Steve Warne, Underwood said of Fisher, "He jumps in, and he always says he doesn't. He's like, 'Oh, I don't care. Just whatever you want!'...But then I go and ask him, 'What do you think about this?' and he'll go 'Oh, no,' and he'll weigh in. I think he's going to be more involved than he initially thought he wanted to be, which is good. I need help."

And though they've begun to plan the big day, Underwood said there was "no date" set. "Our schedules don't provide us too much time to get married and have time to really enjoy being married," she explained. "We're trying to really work it out and move some stuff around."

Her new personal trainer, Ottawa-based Tony Greco, is "kicking my butt," she revealed. "I need it. Especially with a tour coming up and a wedding to look good for."

Danish royal to wed German businessman

Today, the Danish Royal Court announced the engagement of Princess Nathalie zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg (daughter of Princess Benedikte - sister of Queen Margarethe II - and her husband Prince Richard) to her boyfriend of the past two years, Alexander Johannsmann, a German businessman who specializes in the transport of horses for equestrian competitions around the world.

It would seem that the equestrian connection is what brought the pair together, as Princess Nathalie is an active rider, who also breeds and trains dressage horses from her palace home in Berleburg, Denmark.

The pair first stepped out as a couple in November 2009, when reporters asked the princess if an engagement was upcoming. "No...I'm not engaged. Not yet," she said at the time.

This will be Princess Nathalie's first marriage. No wedding date was announced.

Latest installment of The Bachelor begins tonight

ABC's The Bachelor/Bachelorette reality competition franchise has seen it's fair share of drama over the years, and select few finales have actually led to happy endings.

The original Bachelorette, Trista Rehn, married her Colorado firefighter Ryan Sutter, and the pair now have kids Max, 2, and Blakesley, 8 months. Charlie O'Connell - twin brother of actor Jerry - has remained with his selection, Sarah Brice, but there has been no indication of any trips down the aisle. And season 6 couple Byron Velvick and Mary Delgado reportedly still remain engaged, despite a few domestics along the way. Jillian Harris, last summer's Bachelorette, is currently planning a summer wedding to her final choice, Ed Swiderski.

And now, as The Bachelor kicks off it's 14th season tonight with Harris cast-off, pilot Jake Pavelka, it remains to be seen whether his final rose will lead to marriage.

In a recent blog post on People.com, while Pavelka promises drama and says "I am looking for love," he offers no hints to the show's final outcome.

Pop star Robbie Williams engaged before New Year's?

According to British tab The Sun, pop star Robbie Williams proposed to his girlfriend of three years, American actress Ayda Field, at the home they share in Los Angeles just two days before New Year's Eve.

Though the report is unconfirmed, there may be reason to believe it's just another rumour, following a false start on their engagement early in December while both were being interviewed live on Sydney, Australia radio station 2DayFM. When asked that day by the hosts if they were considering marriage, Williams paused before telling Field: "Will you marry me? I love you so much, would you mind being my betrothed until the end of time."

Field replied, "I would love to be your betrothed until the end of time," but soon after media reports went off the wall, Williams' publicist clarified, "He did say it, but he did it in a jocular manner. They are not engaged."

So, could it be true that Williams, who had reportedly planned to propose on New Year's Eve but was too excited to wait, is now engaged to Field? He did admit recently live with British talk show host Jonathan Ross that he wanted to have a family with her, and the couple were spotted playing football in Los Angeles over the weekend, with Field sporting a huge diamond on her ring finger, but the pop singer's reps remain mum.

American Idol's Jason Castro weds in Texas

Jason Castro, who finished fourth on Season 7 of American Idol in 2007, Tweeted his wedding announcement on Sunday, saying "Yesterday I married the girl of my dreams...It couldn't have been more perfect! Now, honeymoooon!!! :)"

On Saturday, January 2, 2010, Castro, best known for his take on the Israel Kamakawiwo'ole version of the classic "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" during his tenure on the reality competition program, battled the flu and married his longtime girlfriend, Mandy Mayhall, in his hometown of Rowlett, Texas, near Dallas.

The engagement was confirmed in November, with Castro reportedly proposing on Halloween while the two were dressed as characters from Disney's Beauty and the Beast. (Another young couple recently relied on Disney to help make their wedding special, when Danielle Deleasa walked down the aisle towards new hubby, Kevin Jonas, to the song "Bella Notte" from Lady and the Tramp.)

Last week, Castro blogged about his bachelor party that included bowling, poker, and pool.

The Bold & the Beautiful's Hunter Tylo weds in Las Vegas

She kept the news to herself for a few weeks, but in mid-December Hunter Tylo, star of the soap, The Bold & the Beautiful, was married to her boyfriend Gersson Archila on Sunday, November 29, 2009. The couple were married at Las Vegas, Nevada's Cupid's Wedding Chapel in front of a small gathering of family.

Tylo was walked down the aisle by her son, Christopher, with her ex-husband Tom Morehart, dressed in a white figure-hugging gown. She exchanged vows with her groom in a tear-filled ceremony. In an exclusive interview with The National Enquirer, Tylo said, "I couldn't be happier. Real love is worth the wait! Only God could have connected me to a man who puts God first." The Enquirer then dug up Archila's domestic abuse past and quoted a family member as saying, "Gersson was a wild man who couldn't control his temper and got into bad relationships. But two years ago he had an epiphany. He took God into his life, and his newfound religion led him to Hunter."

This is Tylo's third marriage. In addition to Morehart, she was married to Michael Tylo from 1987 to 2005, with whom she had daughters Izabella and Katya. Her oldest son, Michael, died in 2007 at the age of 19 when he drowned in the family's swimming pool. Tylo, in the Enquirer, referred to her wedding as finally coming out of her "dark period." Archila has a daughter from a previous relationship.

FIRST PHOTO: Kevin Jonas & Danielle Deleasa

On December 19th, pop star Kevin Jonas married his girlfriend of two years, Danielle Deleasa, at Oheka Castle in Cold Spring Harbor, Long Island, near Huntington, New York.

Before Christmas, the newlyweds were spotted on honeymoon in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, and now their first wedding photo has been released as People magazine's latest cover.

Inside the magazine, the couple share all the details of their big day - from the moment Deleasa's father, "Bucky" walked her down the aisle to the strains of "Bella Notte" from Disney's The Lady and the Tramp on guitar. Deleasa wore a strapless tulle and Chantilly lace Vera Wang creation for the ceremony, in which she and the oldest Jonas exchanged weddings bands designed by New York-based jeweler, Jacob & Co.

The traditional ceremony was co-officiated by Jonas' ordained minister-father, Kevin Sr., and Deleasa's childhood pastor, Rev. Ron DePasquale, Jr.

With a blizzard threatening outside, the design inside the castle brought to mind fairytale theme, with real trees indoors decked out in white lights evoking an enchanted forest, and a pair of glass slippers in Deleasa's shoe size, a gift from her groom. "I knew that my princess needed her glass slippers and her castle," said Jonas.

Adds Deleasa, "I always wanted my wedding to have that princess feel. I couldn't have imagined this!"

America's Got Talent judge announces engagement

It was recently announced on his official website that America's Got Talent judge Piers Morgan proposed earlier this month in Paris to his girlfriend of four years, Celia Walden. The proposal coincided with Walden's birthday celebrations.

In June, Morgan revealed on BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs program that he had enlisted the help of Stevie Wonder to prepare a video proposal "just incase" he ever decided to ask Walden, a novelist and former gossip columnist, to marry him - no word whether the video came into play or not!

Morgan was married to first wife Marion Shalloe from 1991-2008, with whom he had three sons.

Amy Winehouse planning commitment ceremony to ex-husband?

The holiday season has brough headlines in the form of Tiger Woods' infidelities and Charlie Sheen Christmas Day arrest on domestic violence charges against wife Brooke Mueller, but another tabloid-friendly celeb is getting press yet again for her tumultuous relationship with her ex-husband.

Reports from the UK claim that singer Amy Winehouse, who spent much of 2009 in St. Lucia reportedly recovering from addictions to drink and drugs, is planning a commitment ceremony to Blake Fielder-Civil, the man whom she married in a courthouse ceremony in Miami in 2007, then granted a divorce in August this year over his claims that she had cheated.

With Fielder-Civil undergoing rehab and Winehouse back in London with her family, sources now claim they plan to prove their love to one another in a non-binding ceremony before the holiday season is through - and The Daily Mail reports that her long-suffering father, Mitch, is furious that she would ditch Christmas with family to spend time with her man. The elder Winehouse has repeatedly gone on record accusing his daughters heavy drug problems on her close relationship with Fielder-Civil.

UK tab The Sun reports that the reuinted couple will recite their '07 vows in Sheffield, England, where Fielder-Civil is in rehab, citing a source claiming, "They keep saying how in love they are and need to be together. So they have decided to have an unofficial ceremony to silence the doubters and those who are trying to stop them being together."

The idea that Winehouse has in fact not changed her wild ways is given further fire by last week's events - an obviously still-fiery Winehouse was charged with assault after allegedly kicking a man in the groin when he asked her to be quiet and allow others around them enjoy a holiday performance of Cinderella in London's SoHo theatre district.
