The Big Freakin' News alarms are officially wailing in Hollywood gossipworld today, as news broke last night that longtime single lady icon Jennifer Aniston is at last engaged to be married to fellow actor (and boyfriend of a year-ish) Justin Theroux!
A rep happily confirmed to People that Justin proposed to Jen while they celebrated his 41st birthday on Friday, with her enthusiastic "Yes!" being the best gift he could have ever received. (Awww. But she did get him some other stuff, right? Hedging your bets on the chance of a birthday proposal seems like a risky proposition.)
The pair have been dating since 2011 after meeting on the set of "Wanderlust," though both insist that their romance didn't blossom until after filming had wrapped and have kept details of their relationship mostly private. And with the engagement still super-fresh, it'll be at least a few weeks before we hear any details about a date, location, or (oooh!) dress designer for the bride-to-be.
But it's delightful news for all involved, and in the meantime, Jennifer's soon-to-be-hitched status means that the gossip rags will finally quit calling her in the hopes of a catty comment every time ex-husband Brad Pitt says or does something newsworthy and also stop publishing completely trumped-up cover stories about how sad and jealous she is that she's not still married to him, even though it has been seven years for crying out loud and she is obviously over it. Right?
...Yeah, okay, just kidding. They'll never stop. Congratulations anyway!
