Diamonds & Engagement Rings News

Moments after Birmingham City striker Marcus Bent gets down on one knee, Gemma Atkinson accepts the proposal to marry him, I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star, 23, was proposed to by Bent while at a romantic trip to the Lake District. Gemma Atkinson, model and actress, is now sporting a $166,000 engagement ring.

Daily Star had quoted a friend of the couple stating, ‘Gemma was thrilled when Marcus popped the question. He really is the love of her life and she’s sure they will be together forever. They are both very happy.’

The duo began dating in 2006, while Atkinson was still starring in Channel 4 soap Hollyoaks. In 2007, the two split for several months, while at the same time Bent, 30, was seen out with glamour model Danielle Lloyd. Though, by November 2007 the couple was seen back together again just before Atkinson flew to Australia to star in I’m A Celebrity.

While acting on the jungle reality show, Atkinson rapidly won over an army of male fans because of her curvaceous figure that was often displayed in bikinis.

For Atkinson, who claimed she didn’t want to be ‘tied down’ at an interview in OK! magazine earlier this year, the engagement seems to be quite a turnaround.

She stated, “I’ve never been one of those women who’ve thought about marriage and kids. I will get married but I don’t want to consider it until I’ve enjoyed my twenties and we’ve lived together for a while.”

The star also speaks of her love for the footballer, saying, “He’s like a rare diamond, once you’ve got then, you keep hold of them.

‘Marcus is very romantic - every day he does something nice for me. The other day we were staying at a hotel and Marcus checked out before me and wrote: ‘I love you’ on the mirror with soap.’  Â

In April, former Destiny’s Child member married her boyfriend, Shaun Jay-Z Carter after six years of dating. Even though the couple has not publicised their marriage yet, the 18-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond ring, worth $5 million, speaks much of their relationship.

On November 18th Beyonce plans on releasing a new album. The celebrity had posted a statement on her official website: “I have recorded over seventy songs and have created a sound that reveals all of me. I am in a different place right now and I wanted people to see the many sides of me. I have worked on this album for close to one year. I have poured my heart and soul into it. It is my baby. It is the most time I have spent on any project since my first records as a member of Destiny’s Child.”

                 

Scarlett Johansson has tied the knot with Ryan Reynolds this past weekend in an intimate ceremony outside Vancouver in Canada, where the groom was raised. The two can officially be called husband and wife.

Although the wedding was kept on the down low, a representative of Scarlett had confirmed the wedding did really exist and was attended by her mother, Melanie Sloan and her brother, Adrian Johansson. This is the first wedding for both, Ryan, 31 and Scarlett, 23.

           

The duo began dating in February last year, soon after Ryan broke off his engagement to the singer, Alanis Morissette. Later in May 2008, the pair had announced their engagement. Though accurate details of the engagement date were kept under wrap, Scarlett has been spotted wearing an approximate three-carat stone ring ever since.
