Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello got hitched over the weekend, in a ceremony in Pal Beach, Florida.
And boy, did she share a lot of photos.
Vergara was and continues to be incredibly active on Instagram, giving fans an inside look at her beautiful ceremony.
Here are some of the best shots of the night.
Joe Manganiello also shared a few shots, like this adorable one:
Congratulations to the happy couple!
Rainer Andreesen and longtime parter Victor Garber have finally tied the knot.
“YES WE DID! #justgotmarried #elopedintofino #canada @therealvictorgarber #after16years,” Andreesen captioned an Instagram photo of the two.
The New York-based model and artist and the actor have been together for 16 years.
Garber, who is now starring on The Flash but is known for dozens upon dozens of memorable film and TV roles over the years, also posted a photo from the ceremony.
Marrying a total stranger is a bad idea. Marrying one on television sounds even worse, but that’s what Married at First Sight is all about.
The Australian reality show, which is based on a Danish show of the same name, revolves around 4 couples who agreed to get married on the first day that they will meet. The pairs, which were matched by three experts, will spend their wedding night in a hotel before heading off on their honeymoon. They will live together for a month, after which they will choose whether to stay together or get divorced.
The show’s first episode has already aired to mixed reactions. A majority of viewers lambasted the show, calling it an “insult to marriage” while others think of it as a new low standard for reality shows.
But despite the negative reactions, there are those who found the show to be their new guilty pleasure and have already started rooting for one of the couples.
While the show’s premise can be off-putting for some who think it disregards the sanctity of marriage, the first episode was compelling in its raw honesty and refreshing with its realism.
In the first episode, audiences were introduced to couples Clare and Lachlan and Michael and Roni. While Michael and Roni seem to start out well, it was the opposite for Clare and Lachlan.
Clare Tamas, a 37-year-old marketing manager, was seen having a panic attack at the idea of marrying Lachlan, a sensitive and soft-spoken farmer.
The bride seems standoffish at first and even avoided looking at her new husband. But her feelings seem to have melted during the reception when Lachlan gave a heartrending speech about his late father.
“Lachlan’s speech moved me,” Clare admitted. “I didn’t expect a guy to be so open, honest and willing to commit so it’s now made me want to drop any barriers or inhibitions I had in place.”

The slow and reluctant start to their marriage has certainly made viewers want to see what will happen next.
Jane Seymour is known for her acting and writing prowess, as well as her desire to give back to others. But during the recently held Open Hearts gala, the actress reminded people why she’s also known for her timeless beauty.
The 64-year-old looked effortlessly glamorous as she walked the red carpet for the Annual Open Hearts Foundation Gala’s fifth year.
The Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman rocked a strapless gown that showcased her youthful figure and evoked the summer season with its dainty floral print, side embellishments and chic ruffles.
The ageless actress attended the gala with ex-husband James Keach, who started the foundation with her.

Her divorce from Keach, which was finalized in April 2013, was “really, really, really hard,” according to the actress. But despite their differences, Seymour said that they both “found a way to have a new relationship, and move on so that’s what we’re doing.”
The former Bond girl also said that she and her ex-husband would always work together for their sons, 19-year-old twins, Johnny Stacy and Kristopher Steven.
“We realize the marriage may not be intact, but the family is intact and always will be,” Seymour explained. “We’ll always care for one another and care about one another. That doesn’t change.”
But it also doesn’t mean that Seymour has given up on men and love altogether.
The Live and Let Die star has admitted that she’s seeing someone but is not in a hurry to get married again.
“I don’t know if I need to get married again,” she shared. “There is someone in my life right now who I’m really enjoying. For right now this is very good.”
Seymour has been divorced 4 times already. Her first and second marriage to Michael Attenborough and Geoffrey Planer only lasted a few years. Her third marriage to David Flynn produced two children but also ended in divorce in 1992.
But who knows, even if she’s taking things slow Seymour might just take a page from her Open Hearts creation and keep her heart open for love (and marriage).
Charlize Theron has heard all the naysayers and their opinions about her and Sean Penn. But apparent;y she sees something the rest of them don’t. Why? Maybe it’s because she actually knows the guy, and has for a long time.
Charlize Theron told Esquire magazine recently:
“We’ve been friends for 20 years. He was married, I was in a long-term relationship, our spouses—not regularly, but we were in each other’s lives. I think our friendship stemmed from mutual respect—more on my end, because I really didn’t have a body of work 20 years ago, but my love and passion for making films—that was our common ground.”
But there was more to it than that. As Charlize Theron explains, she and Sean Penn are not just some acting couple who talk about their movies all the time.
“And also, Sean liked to have conversations outside of just making movies. That’s sometimes hard to find among friends here, and that’s where our friendship really blossomed. A lot of people want to tell you the answer to solving all of Africa’s problems from what they’ve seen on CNN. Sean is not that guy. When he started working in Haiti and I started working on the AIDS front in South Africa, we spent a lot of time talking about those worlds.”
What blows her away is that the friendship came first. Because of that, there is what she describes as a “weight to the relationship.”
“It is nice to be in something where the friendship came first. I’ve never had that. There’s a weight to the relationship already that I don’t think you have when you just meet somebody and enter a relationship. There’s a foundation of 20 years that the two of us have shared with each other in all these different ways that is really the foundation of something that has brought a lot of beautiful things into my life. We get so stuck in wanting to predict the future that we forget the moment that we’re in. And the moment that we’re in is just really good. It’s really good, really nice.”
So, what about marriage? Does Charlize Theron think that is in the works for her and Sean Penn?
“The marriage thing is always so strange to me. I love the possibility of anything, but I’m really enjoying myself and the everyday moment and how that coincides with my son and my life and my friends. I’m a very, very, very lucky girl. Very lucky. He’s hot. He is hot. How do you say that in an interview? You’re a 40-year-old woman sounding like a 16-year-old. There’s something beautiful about that, but you lack the articulation of really saying what it’s like when somebody walks into your life and makes you see something that you really never thought you’d be able to see. If somebody had said to me, ‘This is what it will be,’ I would’ve said, ‘F–k off.’ As you can see, it makes me smile.”
Victoria Beckham’s younger sister Louise ended her marriage with her husband of five years, Darren Flood. Now, with Victoria back in England after living in LA, it seems she will be there not only for business but also to support her sister in this difficult time. Louise has moved back to her parent’s house following the split. On her sister’s birthday, Victoria recently posted a picture on Twitter of the two when they were still babies. She caption the photo, “To my wonderful sister on her birthday. You are a wonderful mother and beautiful friend x I love u x Victoria.”
According to The Sun, “Victoria has been Louise’s rock over the past few weeks. They’ve always been there for each other as sisters and it’s one of the reasons she wanted to spend as much time as possible in the UK since returning from Los Angeles.” Victoria has been spending time with her family ever since her return to England. The former Spice Girl recently launched the flagship Victoria Beckham store in London as well as promoting the brand in Manchester.

— HELLO! (@hellomag) November 26, 2014
Louise married Darren in 2009 in a private ceremony attended only by their mothers. Victoria and David Beckham then threw a party for the couple at their Hertfordshire mansion which has since been sold. Louise and Darren’s marriage started to implode after companies that Darren has been involved in were embroiled in fraud allegations.
It’s been reported that the split was hard on the Adams clan since they expressed their fondness for Darren over the years. Speaking about Louise’s 2009 wedding, Victoria said, “I’m really excited. Her husband-to-be is just wonderful. It’s going to be a nice atmosphere to be having a wedding a couple of days after Christmas.”
Representatives for Victoria declined to comment on Louise’s split with Darren.
Mass murderer Charles Manson recently made headlines when he obtained his marriage license to marry his 26-year-old groupie Afton Elaine Burton, also known as “Star,” and now one of the victim’s sisters is speaking out calling the impending nuptials “ludicrous” and “insane.”
According to ABC News, Manson and his followers Leslie Van Houten, Patricia Krenwinkel, and Susan Atkins were convicted in the gruesome slayings of Sharon Tate, the pregnant wife of director Roman Polanski, and four others on the night of August 9, 1969. Two others, Leno and Rosemary LaBianca, were killed the next night.
Sharon’s sister Debra Tate has spent the majority of her adult life making sure that Manson remains in prison, and is outraged that he has received permission to get married.
Debra explained that Burton believes Manson is leading a movement to save the environment. Burton even wore a shirt while speaking to the Associated Press that read ATWA, which stands for air, trees, water, animals.
“I wonder how long it will take for her to figure out this is just a con,” Tate said. “It makes me wonder what is missing in her life that she would want to marry an 80-year-old man. Is she a victim? Is she mentally deranged?”
Since Sharon’s death, Debra has made sure to attend every parole hearing Manson has, arguing on behalf of her sister on why he and his followers should remain in prison.
“I don’t want any more heinous actions by another family like his because of something I didn’t do,” she said.
Prison officials explained that Manson and Burton will be allowed to have a private ceremony in the prison. They are allowed to invite ten outside guests, and will be allowed to kiss and hold hands during the ceremony. While Burton is allowed to wear whatever she likes, Manson will be wearing his prison scrubs. Manson will not be restrained during the ceremony, but will not be allowed any physical contact after the ceremony is over.
This week, the internet was witness to a very embarrassing gotcha moment as a woman, identified only as “Nina”, was allegedly caught cheating on her husband – by his best man.
The original video was posted to reddit, along with a story. Apparently, Nina and her husband had been married for about a year-and-a-half, and he had suspected she was performing some extracurricular activities for some time. Confiding in his best friend (and best man at the couple’s wedding), he asked him to check it out.
And the best man obliged. Cellphone in hand, he went out to confront Nina. He found her in a bar – in the arms of another man. That’s where the now-viral video picks up
The original video, which had amassed hundreds of thousands of views and thousands of comments, has been deleted. Of course, nothing is ever truly deleted on the internet …
Here’s how the original poster described the scenario on reddit:
“This girl and her husband got married a year and a half ago in Thailand. A bunch of my friends flew out for this spectacular wedding. She had cheated on him once before with the same guy and apparently got gonorrhea of the throat from him. She confessed to her husband and asked for forgiveness and he forgave her. Flash forward to a week or so ago and he suspected her of cheating again. Found out she was at this bar through social media or something and asked his best friend if he would go check it out. After finding out, the husband went home, took the car, took her ring, and told her she had until the end of the day to move out. That’s all I really know.”
Yikes. Let’s just hope this is some sort of marketing stunt or vial hoax – cause that’s just brutal.
Although their two sisters, Jill and Jessa, have been trending in the news lately due to their recent marriages and baby announcements, Jinger and Jana Duggar don’t seem to be in any rush to move on to the next stage.
Jinger, one of the most outspoken members of the Duggar family, recently served as maid-of-honor at Jessa’s November wedding.
“I definitely cried once or twice, a couple of different evenings thinking about Jessa leaving,” she said. “It is a different season of life. Those special memories in the girls’ room, us up chatting late at night, is one thing I think about and start tearing up.”
Jim Bob, father of the Duggar clan, said that Jinger hasn’t picked a future spouse yet because, “so far, she has not been interested in the guys.”
But because Jinger, 20, is the most outspoken, fans of 19 Kids & Counting have started a movement to get her away from the Independent Baptist family before she begins stepping toward courtship and marriage.
Freejinger.com says that they are “a group of critics” who have “joined together online in the hopes of convincing spitfire daughter Jinger to leave too — without a wedding ring on her finger!”
“Jinger is one of the middle Duggar daughters, and the only one who shows a spark of life. If anyone is going to break out of the Duggar Borg, our money is on Jinger,” reads the site’s FAQ page. “One theory is that she resents her name being misspelled just so her family could keep their J streak going.”
I'm tired of losing sleep over Jinger Duggar please runaway already #19Kids ??
— Pickles (@whomadeus) November 8, 2014
But Jinger isn’t the only one who isn’t moving toward matrimony.
Online rumors have indicated that Jana Duggar, 24, is too busy taking care of her younger siblings to be courted. She’s even been dubbed “Cinderella Duggar” by Radar Online. However, Jim Bob insists that there have been a lot of guys who have been interested in her.
“I have gone to hear about each one,” he said, “and so far she hasn’t felt that is the way the Lord is leading.”
“We’ve always gotten different ones asking, ‘When is it going to be your turn? When is it your time?’” Jenna said. “I just think for me I am just waiting and we’ll see. When God brings that one along it will be his time.”
However, none of this information stops the online community from speculating about the eldest sister.
Jana Duggar is def gay. It's a thing.
— repubs (@rightsaidkate) November 13, 2014
No wonder Jana Duggar isn't in a courtship. She's to busy remaking about 15 bridesmaids dresses. When does Cinderalla get to go to the ball?
— Shannon (@shannertanner) November 9, 2014
Or about the Jinger, for that matter.
Anyone taking bets on which Duggar goes rogue? My odds are on Jinger. #craycakes #savejinger #Duggars
— Angie Gazdziak (@angiegaz) November 8, 2014
But Jana’s twin brother, John David, seems eager to marry and recently joked that he is taking applications for a future spouse.
“It was a joke,” he says. “But I hear that we started receiving applications like crazy. I don’t know how many have come in and I haven’t looked at any, but I hear there are a lot.”
Joseph Duggar, 19, also has his thoughts on courtship and marriage.
“I definitely want to do the same route in courting and getting to know someone in the way my siblings have,” he said. “Doing it that way, I believe that is the way that God intended it. I don’t think God wants us to play around and go out with everyone, but to know for sure that is the one He has for you.
“Sometimes, that takes time.”
Who do you think will marry next? Are you, along with many others, rooting for Jinger to escape before she is spoken for?
Renee Puente said “I do” to her fiancé Matthew Morrison over the weekend.
According to People, Puente and the Glee star tied the knot during an intimate ceremony on Saturday. The ceremony took place in front of 50 of their close friends and family members at a “private estate in Kihei on the island of Maui, Hawaii.”
“It was a small affair,” a source told Us Weekly. “They wanted to keep it intimate and special.”
The couple looked stylish as ever with the groom wearing a Brooks Brothers tuxedo and the bride wearing a custom made Gustavo Cadile gown. Puente also had one-of-a-kind shoes designed by Emmy London.
The tropical wedding was complete with special music from pianist Chad Whidden and Kiley Dean. Dean sang Feels Like Home as Puente made her way down the isle to her future husband.
After the wedding, Puente put on a special hula performance for her hubby and then the two performed a duet to Laura Benanti’s Starry Eyed/Video Games.
On Monday, October 20, Morrison took to his personal Twitter account to introduce the Mrs. “Conquered Hurricane Ana and got married!” Morrison tweeted. “Most amazing week EVER. It’s my pleasure to introduce, my WIFE, Mrs. Renee Marie Morrison!!”

Katherine Jenkins is officially a married woman!
According to People, Jenkins tied the knot to her fiancé writer and director Andrew Levitas over the weekend in the U.K at London’s Hampton Court Palace.
The Welsh singer had kept the ceremony a secret until she took to Twitter to send a message about her special day to her nearly 300,000 followers on Saturday.
“Thank you for all your love & support. It’s already been such a special day & wanted to share my happiness with you,” the 2012 Dancing with the Stars 14th season runner-up tweeted.
Jenkins also revealed that she had been spending the past week getting pampered. “Thank you to all the lovely ladies at @Skinesis @blissspa & @face_gym for this weeks pampering,” she wrote.

The couple revealed that they were engaged in April 2014. Although they had been dating less than a year, Jenkins’ rep said that she was very excited. “Katherine is over the moon,” her rep said at the time.
“Thank you for all your lovely wishes of congratulations. They mean so much to us,” Jenkins tweeted in April.

Jenkins was previously engaged to Welsh TV host Gethin Jones. However, the couple later broke it off in 2012.
Sarah Silverman is funny and opinionated and although she has been in several long-term relationships, she says that marriage just isn’t something she is interested in.
Silverman is currently dating her Masters of Sex costar Michael Sheen.
The two have been together for seven months and rumors that they are considering marriage have begun to circulate.
Silverman became aware of the rumors and set the record straight on her Twitter page.
Just read that I wanna get married which is hilarious b/c I will never get married.
— Sarah Silverman (@SarahKSilverman) September 21, 2014
Why would I want the govt involved in my love life? Ew. It's barbaric.

That shit never bothers me b/c who cares but I feel like this one is bigoted. The Jew girl MUST want a RING! Yich
— Sarah Silverman (@SarahKSilverman) September 21, 2014
Silverman insists that she is not against marriage, it’s just her personal decision not to get married.
In 2010 Silverman did an interview with Playboy and shared her opinion on marriage as well.
“I love going to weddings, and I love it when my friends get married,” she said at the time. “I’m not against marriage, but it’s just not for me. I’m a vegetarian, but I don’t have a problem if you want a hamburger. Marriage, to me, is like eating meat. I think it’s gross and f–king crazy… If you’re getting married today, it’s the equivalent of joining a country club that doesn’t allow blacks or Jews.”
Silverman dated Jimmy Kimmel for over five years and has also been romantically linked to writer Alec Sulkin and comedian Kyle Dunnigan.
In spite of her decision to not get married, Silverman said that she still prefers long-term relationships and can be in love with someone without having to sign a paper to prove it.
Little People, Big World’s Jeremy Roloff is now a married man!
According to People, Roloff tied the knot to his longtime sweetheart Audrey Mirabella Botti on Saturday, September 20 at his parent’s farm, Roloff Farms, in Hillsboro, Oregon.
“We’re ecstatic for Jeremy and his new bride,” Matt Roloff, Jeremy’s father, told the publication.
The wedding was vintage-themed and welcomed over 300 guests. The couple had a whopping 12 bridesmaids and 11 groomsmen with Jeremy’s twin brother Zach Roloff serving as the best man and Margo Botti, Audrey’s sister, serving as the maid of honor.
The couple gave their guests some advice before attending their wedding on their wedding website. “Wear shoes capable to walk on gravel, grass and dirt. This is a farm wedding. Bring a coat for a potential wind chill, and maybe an umbrella because Oregon is an awesome state and does what it wants,” they wrote.
Jeremy proposed to Audrey earlier this year in March after three years of dating. Jeremy then shared the exciting news on his personal Instagram account with a picture of him holding his bride-to-be. “January 16th, 2010 I met Audrey. January 17th, 2010, I was in love. August 15th, 2011 asked her out. March 15th, 2014 I asked this beautiful girl to be mine, and she said yes. Drowning in grace. @aujb,” he captioned the photo.
On the day before the wedding, Audrey tweeted a message to her followers telling them that her phone would be on airplane mode while she fully enjoyed her wedding. “Tomorrow the phone goes on airplane mode. Soaking in every minute of this day in the purest state. #theroloffwedding,” she wrote.

Pamela Anderson has been no stranger to controversy throughout her career, particularly when it comes to her tumultuous (and often short) relationships. The actress and Playboy model this week spoke out about her current marriage for the first time since her latest divorce scare.
An Us Magazine report quotes Anderson as saying that her marriage to Rick Salomon is “good” and “doing fine.” She also stated that she and her husband are “good friends.” On the topic of whether the marriage will last, however, Anderson hedged her bets, saying, “who knows?”
Anderson and Salomon first married in October 2007 in Las Vegas. That marriage quickly turned sour and Anderson filed for divorce just ten weeks later. The couple officially split in March 2008.
Almost six years later the couple had repaired their relationship. Anderson and Salomon quietly remarried in January of this year.
Since that time their second marriage has been following a familiar trajectory. Anderson filed for divorce in July, though the breakup was called off later that month.
Anderson made her comments at a charity event in New York City. The actress has become well-known in recent years for her charity work. Anderson has worked with PETA on animal rights campaigns for decades now and was also a spokesperson for the MAC AIDS Fund.

In May of this year Anderson promoted the launch of her own charity, the Pamela Anderson Foundation, by revealing a dark secret from her past. In a heartfelt speech the actress revealed that she had been sexually abused as a child and raped as a teenager.
Recently the actress partnered with hundreds of animal activists to save thousands of pilot whales from being slaughtered in a yearly Faroe Islands celebration known as the “grind.” She also refused to take part in the popular ALS ice bucket challenge, citing animal testing done for ALS research.
Fran Drescher, star of The Nanny, married her longtime boyfriend, Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai, at their beach-front home on Sunday afternoon.
Fran and Shiva have been dating for a little over a year and Shiva was happy to share the story of how they met.
“I was speaking on sages and scientists—in fact, talking about innovation and the fact that we need to more universally look at the models of innovation,” Ayyadurai explained during a recent visit to HuffPost Live. “And Fran heard my talk and we fell in love, and we’ve been together since that talk.”

The past two years have been full of bliss for Jessica Simpson. Not only did she marry the love of her life, Eric Johnson, she also welcomed two beautiful children – Maxwell and Ace.
During a recent interview with Glamour magazine, Simpson opened up about marriage and motherhood, and how she has learned to build her self-confidence and love herself.
Since the birth of her first child Maxwell in 2012, Jessica has struggled with her weight and body image, and became a Weight Watchers spokeswoman to help shed the pounds and motivate other women who were struggling.
“Today, I feel truly comfortable in my own skin. Better exercise habits, food choices, and lifestyle changes have contributed to this, but ultimately, my confidence comes from my state of mind,” she explained.
“Every step I’ve taken up until this point has taught me something,” she added. “Every decision I’ve made has brought me here. When I reflect on my life, my beliefs, and my experiences, I gain a perspective that connects me more deeply to myself, my friends, and my family.”
Feeling balanced, healthy and inspired. Proud to have shared my perspective with @glamourmag http://t.co/M5qt3rU8ui pic.twitter.com/IlIjNObvjH
— Jessica Simpson (@JessicaSimpson) September 3, 2014
Simpson also credits her hubby Eric, whom she recently married in July, for supporting her through all her sizes, and helping her gain her self-confidence back. “Eric has seen me at every size, and he loves me no matter what. When I got pregnant with Ace four months after having Maxwell, I was nervous about starting over again. I had come so far in learning how to balance my career, family life, and hormones, and starting over again felt overwhelming,” she explained.
“Eric was so supportive and challenged me to accept my insecurities and focus on what truly matters. I feel stronger than ever, and Eric’s unconditional love has been a reminder of the love I should give myself.”
While Weight Watchers and her husband both helped her achieve her goals, ultimately it was Simpson who changed her own view of herself. “I’ve grown into myself and established my identity on my terms,” she said. “I embrace my strengths and celebrate even the small victories. I’m certainly not perfect, but when I look in the mirror, I’m proud of the woman I see. I’m not only someone’s mother, wife, and daughter—I’m me.”
Jessica Simpson has proven that she can do it all. She is a talented singer who had an amazing singing career early in her life and she now works as a spokeswoman for Weight Watchers. She is also a dedicated wife and mother and says that juggling everything can be difficult at times, but is completely worth it.
She recently opened up about her life and how it has changed since becoming a wife and mother.
“Today, I feel truly comfortable in my own skin. Better exercise habits, food choices, and lifestyle changes have contributed to this, but ultimately, my confidence comes from my state of mind,” she wrote in an essay for Glamour magazine. “Every step I’ve taken up until this point has taught me something. Every decision I’ve made has brought me here. When I reflect on my life, my beliefs, and my experiences, I gain a perspective that connects me more deeply to myself, my friends, and my family.”
After having her children, Jessica struggled with being overweight and admitted that she lost a lot of confidence. She said that her husband helped her with her confidence issues and that she is now proud of who she is.

“Eric has seen me at every size, and he loves me no matter what,” she wrote. “When I got pregnant… I was nervous about starting over again. I had come so far in learning how to balance my career, family life, and hormones, and starting over again felt overwhelming. Eric was so supportive and challenged me to accept my insecurities and focus on what truly matters.”
She also said that she thinks she is at a good place in her life and knows who she is and what she wants.
“When I was younger and starting out in the music business, I always felt like I was being defined by other people—industry executives, fans, the media, and so on. It took a while, but now that I’m in my 30s, I’ve grown into myself and established my identity on my terms,” she wrote. “I embrace my strengths and celebrate even the small victories. I’m certainly not perfect, but when I look in the mirror, I’m proud of the woman I see.”
Jay-Z and Beyonce look like they will be just fine. The pair, who have endured speculation on their marriage since May, seemed very lovey on their Los Angeles stopover during their On the Run tour.
The two shared an impressive kiss on stage after performing Young Forever. They wrapped it up with dual shout-outs. Beyonce said, “Last but not least, give it up for Mr. Carter,” Then Jay-Z added: “No. Last but not least, give it up for Mrs. Carter.”
Jay-Z and Beyonce tag-teamed each other to sing their seperate hits, coming together to sing their duets with a backdrop that seemed like a trailer for a new Bonnie and Clyde movie. The footage showed the two of them robbing banks, making getaways, and frolicking in cheap hotels with the words “This is not real” flashing across the scenes.
It also showed footage of Jay-Z and Beyonce at their wedding, vacations, and playing with daughter Blue Ivy as the words “This is real” flashed on screen.
Such touching sentiment for a couple whose marriage has been completely picked apart since Jay-Z’s now infamous brawl with Beyonce’s sister, Solange Knowles, in an elevator in New York.

The rumor was flying around that Jay-Z was getting a little too cozy with Rachel Roy and several others, including Maya.

Jay-Z, Beyonce, and Solange later released a statment saying that they had moved on “as a united family”, but the damage had already been done to their image.
The show featured intimate shots of Jay-Z and Beyonce with their daughter, Blue Ivy. The images were probably adorable, but many have said that the couple has been using the sweet girl as desperate proof that they are still okay in order to keep ticket sales steady.
However, Jay-Z was reportedly seeking marriage counseling for the two of them from Gwyneth Paltrow’s counselor. If that counselor had a hand in “recoupling” Gwyneth and Chris Martin, then perhaps that counselor could have helped Jay-Z and Beyonce get back on the right path.
Here’s hoping Jay-Z and Beyonce have worked through their issues and will continue as the ultimate musical power couple.

Is that wedding bells we hear? Maybe, seeing as though Cameron Diaz and her boyfriend Benji Madden have reportedly been discussing marriage.
The unlikely couple was first rumored to be dating earlier this year in May. However, the news wasn’t confirmed until Madden’s sister-in-law, Nicole Richie, confirmed the news on an episode of Watch What Happens Live. Richie even admitted that she was the one to set them up.
“I am a devoted sister-in-law,” Richie, who is married to Benji’s twin brother Joel Madden, said of her brother-in-law. “I’m happy for anyone who is happy, and I want everyone to be surrounded with love.”
Since then, Diaz and Madden have been spotted around New York City holding hands, and Madden is reportedly living with Diaz since he spends so much time at her Los Angeles home. “They look very happy together,” an insider close to the couple said. “Cameron hasn’t looked this happy for years.”
So, is a wedding in the near future? The insider revealed that the Sex Tape actress and Good Charlotte vocalist have been discussing the possibility of saying “I do.” “It’s early, but they have talked about marriage,” the insider explained.
Madden even met his potential in-laws on the couple’s recent trip to Florida.”It seemed important to Cameron that Benji met her family, and she looked very proud to introduce him to everyone,” the insider added. “They were very sweet to each other, constantly kissing and flirting. It was obvious that they had a great vacation.”
Diaz was previously in relationships with Carlos de la Torre, Matt Dillon, Jared Leto, Justin Timberlake, and Alex Rodriguez. Madden was previously engaged to Sophie Monk for years before splitting up in 2008.
