Tabloids have gone to town talking about their affair, first clandestine, then full-blown -- 'Vince makes her laugh,' screamed several headlines attributed to old Friends of Jen.
But then, if we're to believe the gossip columns, the fire died. Their relationship suddenly flopped, as miserably as their film. It was just another Hollywood memory till suddenly Us magazine announced that they're engaged.
With lots of quotes -- from sources who want to remain anonymous -- the story details how Vaughn presented her with a $500,000 diamond on July 27.
So the Vaughniston saga (as the tabloids nickname it) continues, through bizarrely conflicting rumours. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie must be giggling.
