Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone aren’t the only Amazing Spider Man stars in love.

Co-star Chris Zylka is engaged and his new fiancée is over the moon!

“I’m engaged !!!!!” model and designer Hanna Beth Merjos, 25, wrote on Twitter over the weekend, before adding yesterday, “My life feels like a dream right now. Everything is way too perfect. So happy.”

It seems Chris, who plays Flash Thompson in the superhero film, gave his bride-to-be more than a ring to celebrate their engagement.

Beth also posted an Instagram of a puppy on Saturday, writing, “OMG!!! I have the best boyfriend in the entire universe. Say hello to our little baby. Best surprise ever picking her up next week.”

Chris, 28, is known for his small screen roles on Twisted and The Secret Circle. He’s set to star the upcoming show The Leftovers with Justin Theroux.

The actor has previously dated Pretty Little Liars star Lucy Hale and The Vampire Diaries star Phoebe Tonkin.

Matt Willis is apparently caught in a tug-of-love between his group McBusted and soap bosses at the BBC.

Matt is enjoying a lot of success with the Busted/McFly supergroup as they recently had a sell-out run at London’s O2 Arena, but apparently the chiefs at EastEnders are also desperate to sign him up.

Guitarist and former I’m a Celebrity winner Matt, 30, had a two-week stint in the show in February.

He played Luke Riley, boyfriend of Stacey Branning – actress Lacey Turner, 26

And the dad-of-two’s brief appearance, which helped pull in an impressive 7.4 million viewers, seems to have made a big impression on TV chiefs.

EastEnders’ executive producer Dominic Treadwill-Collins is reportedly keen to get him in the cast full time.

It’s decision time Matt!

Lauren Conrad is completely love-struck with the new puppy she just adopted!

The 28-year-old fashion designer, who already has rescue dogs Chloe and Fitz, took to her Instagram account last night to share an adorable snap of her new four-legged friend.

She accompanied the cute picture- which shows the fluffy pup gazing into the camera lens – with the caption, ”Newest member of the Conrad clan stole me heart. (sic).”

The former Hills star has yet to announce the name of the chocolate-coloured pup.

Aside from making us all jealous with these adorable pictures, Lauren has been very busy planning her and her fiancé William Tell’s wedding, although she admits she’s not in a rush to tie the knot.

She said previously, ”You have the rest of your life to be married. Enjoy falling in love. When girls get caught up in the timeline, it becomes more about the wedding than the marriage. You should be with someone with whom you could elope this weekend and be happy.”

A 14-year-old paperboy has been labelled the ‘next Ed Sheeran’ by music mogul Simon Cowell.

Britain’s Got Talent hopeful Bailey McConnell blew away the judges on the show last night, receiving a standing ovation for his performance.

After moving the audience to tears, the schoolboy confessed he penned the song Dying Hole, after falling out with one of his friends.

“One of my close, close, close friends turned on me. It was unexpected and it really hurt me,” he said.

A teary David Walliams gushed, “‘What is there not to like about you? Fantastic voice, you played beautifully and you can write really incredible songs.

“Often the best singer-songwriters have to go through something really tough and turn it into something really beautiful and we can all unite because we’ve all had some experience like that… I get it. I get it.”

And now Simon, who was in LA during Bailey’s audition, is reportedly very eager to sign the talented singer to his record label Syco, and has called him a young Ed Sheeran in the making.

While he may look more like Justin Bieber, we hope the super cute singer doesn’t follow in the bold star’s footsteps!

Lily Allen is one brave-slash-foolish pop star!

The 28-year-old singer took to the stage last night, at London’s G-A-Y club, for a zany performance that even poked fun at Queen of Pop Beyoncé.

Lily was launching her new album with a special preview set at the club, which saw her change outfits for each song surrounded by scantily-clad dancers.

For her encore, she poked fun at Beyonce’s Grammy Awards appearance, having a bucket of water thrown over her before performing a cover of Destiny Child’s ‘I’m a survivor.’

Joined by a male performer in his underwear, Lily danced around the stage soaking wet wearing a dodgy looking wig.

The singer is bound to be skating on thin ice after taking a swipe at Beyoncé and more of the world’s biggest stars for her new single Sheezus.

“RiRi isn’t scared of Katy Perry’s roaring, Queen Bey’s gone back to the drawing. Lorde smells blood, yeah, she’s about to slay you… kid ain’t one to f**k with when she’s only on her debut. We’re all watching Gaha lol haha… dying for the art, so really she’s a martyr,” she sings.

Careful Lily – you’ll have no friends left at this rate!

The Kardashian sisters may be known for their love of all things glitzy, but it seems Kim and Khloe don’t mind getting dirty every once and a while!

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians stars took part in a LA mud run yesterday afternoon – which they gave fans a giggle at in a series of hilarious Instagram snaps.

Khloe posted the bandit fashion moment on her Instagram page, and wrote: “Mudrun Madness with @kimkardashian @steph_shep.”

After completing the challenge – which is usually a a 5km race that includes 20 tough obstacles  – Khloe posted a photo of the pair hand–in–hand as they slid down a wide yellow blowup slide into a huge pool of dirt.

“Keeks and Kokes #MudRun,” she captioned the picture.

It’s great to see it’s not Prada and pouts with these fun sisters!

Hollyoaks star Stephanie Waring has branded Kym Marsh ”heartless”’ for dating her ex-boyfriend.

Stephanie said Coronation Street actress Kym broke an “unwritten” rule by dating her ex and the father of her baby Dan Hooper.

The actress said she was devastated when she heard that the Corrie star and mum-of-three had been linked to 31-year-old Dan, who she has a three-year-old daughter Lexi-Grace with.

Kym and personal trainer Dan were pictured together hand-in-hand as they made their way into a club on Thursday evening after Kym judged the annual Miss Manchester beauty pageant.

Stephanie said, “She’s carried on with him knowing what it’s done to me. It is killing me.

“I considered her a friend who I’ve known for years. I had no idea that she would ever do anything like this… There is an unwritten rule that if you are friends with somebody you don’t go near their ex partners.”

The 36-year-old star also branded Kym “heartless” for her romance with Dan.

But the Corrie actress has dismissed the claims saying she’s disappointed in her pal for not speaking to her in person.

A spokesperson for Kym said, “Kym and Dan are not in a relationship but have both been single for some time and are entitled to socialise with whomever they wish. Kym has more dignity than to respond further.”

It has been the best-kept secret for months but the cat is finally out of the bag as Irish TV star Grainne Seoige announced her engagement to South African boyfriend Leon Jordaan.

The presenter has actually been engaged since November, but decided to only reveal the exciting news to friends and family last night!

“We wanted time to enjoy it ourselves. When it is out there, it takes on a life of its own,” she said.

Last night, the couple threw a surprise party in Dublin for 150 guests as a thank you to so many friends who kept the news secret.

Grainne revealed they haven’t decided if they will marry in Ireland or South Africa, but the wedding will take place in 2015.

Grainne and Leon have been dating since October of 2011, and the TV presenter said her fiancé,  “understands a west of Ireland girl like me.”

“He understands what makes me tick. He gets me. What I love about him is his sense of kindness and fun. He also has a strong sense of what’s fair and what’s right. And we’re obviously incredibly happy together,” she said.

The former rugby player has lived in Ireland for 10 years, but the couple were in a long distance relationship since January after Leon returned home when his Navan job ended.

Hordes of screaming fans, thousands of miles from home and an epic world tour just kicking off – it’s no wonder that One Direction star Liam Payne broke down on stage.

The band were performing in Colombia, on the first date of their Where We Are tour, which will take them all over the world playing 69 dates.

It seems the experience was all a bit too much for poor Liam as he sobbed on stage during the love song You and I.

“I know Liam will probably be embarrassed by this but he cried a little we were singing You and I,” one fan pointed out on Twitter after the show.

“You cried during you and I? it’s my favorite song ever…” said another fan.

It seems Liam is feeling the pressure of embarking on the massive tour ahead of him.

He recently posted on Twitter that he had forgotten how “lonely” living in a hotel could be, before posting a sleepy selfie on the site saying he wished he could stay in bed!

But Liam’s fans are certainly the ones to pick him up when he’s feeling blue, as he tweeted after the Colombia performance that the show was, “The greatest experience of my life.”
