As the stunning news of Amy Winehouse’s untimely death broke, it was her boyfriend Reg Traviss that flew into the spotlight. Her heartbroken lover has been mourning her death, but is he also mourning the end of his engagement?
UK newspaper The Sun reported that the singer had accepted a marriage proposal from Traviss, complete with a diamond engagement ring, just a few weeks before her death.
Traviss, 35, had also told the paper that Winehouse was not on any kind of drug or alcohol binge before her death, and that it was some kind of freak occurrence that took the 27-year-old singer’s life.

The latest star of the TV show Bachelorette chose her man on last night’s season finale. Ashley Hebert said that her heart belongs to JP Rosenbaum as he proposed to her on the finale in Fiji.
Rosenbaum wasn’t the only contestant to propose. Ben Flajnik, the runner-up, also got down on one knee and proposed to Ashley with an engagement ring. Flajnik said he was stunned by the response he got.
Hebert, 27, refused his proposal, saying, “I’m sorry. I know this was unexpected, and I want you to know this is the hardest thing I’ve done here. This is not easy.” Flajnik responded by walking away in anger and silence. He then said, “You can’t leave something like this on good terms. It’s not possible. I’m in utter shock and disbelief.”
While that moment was difficult, Hebert collected herself for Rosenbaum’s proposal. She was thrilled to say yes and receive the Neil Lane designed diamond engagement ring.

Wedding Bells Any Day Now!
While many couples spend months and years preparing and planning their wedding, with the end date clearly in mind so everyone is ready, Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minillo have decided to keep everyone guessing.
Nick’s brother, former bandmate, and best man Drew Lachey revealed that no one has any idea about the details of the wedding, including himself.
“We have been told to expect a phone call and expect to jump on a plane,” Drew told Popeater.com. “It could be any day now so we are all ready.”
It would seem the wedding planning has gone a lot smoother this time around for Nick, and he plans to spend the day completely focused on his bride, Vanessa.
We look forward to hearing about all the details of this ‘top secret’ wedding!
