Maggie Gyllenhaal
Gossip

One of our favorite, most underrated celebrity couples got married over the weekend.

Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard tied the proverbial knot at a small chapel near Rome, Italy on Saturday.

"We are happy to confirm that Maggie and Peter were married on Saturday, May 2," the actress' rep told Us Weekly.

The pair has been dating for seven years. They announced their engagement in April 2006 and are the parents to two-year old daughter Ramona.

The wedding was a small affair, as approximately 40 guests attended the event. Included among them, as you might expect, were Maggie's brother, Jake Gyllenhaal, and his famous girlfriend, Reese Witherspoon.

Maggie Gyllenhaal stars in The Dark Knight.

Similarly, we wish this picture of the actress was taken on a very dark night. That way, maybe we could have avoided being blinded by the shiny garbage bag Gyllenhaal apparently decided to wear for an appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman.

Judge it for yourself:

We touched on Lauren Conrad's dress (not literally - we wish!) yesterday in a celebrity fashion feature on The Hills star attending The Dark Knight premiere. Now, let's look at what two other beauties worse that night.

In short, varied hemlines heated up this red carpet!

Unsurprisingly, Gossip Girl fashion magnate Blake Lively showed the most leg in a silk romper. The fit seems a little off, but then again, having just about a perfect body like Blake Lively's helps you pull it off, though.

In the knee-length category, Lauren Conrad wore a form-fitting corset-like number. The silhouette is a little sexy-secretary. No complaints here!

Lastly, we have Maggie Gyllenhaal, who (on this night at least) chose a more traditional, long, strapless gown befitting of a leading lady.

In this celebrity fashion face-off featuring Gossip Girl's Blake Lively, The Hills' Lauren Conrad and The Dark Knight's Maggie Gyllenhaal, which dress is best?

Maggie Gyllenhaal says motherhood made her a better actress, but now she wants to spend more time at home than in front of the cameras.

"I think having a child changes everything and has deepened everything in my life," said Gyllenhaal, mom to 20-month-old daughter Ramona.

"It really does crack you open in every conceivable way. I never knew that I could be so tired. I never knew that I could work so hard. I never knew that I could love so much or be so patient or be so excited by the tiniest, tiniest little thing. Everything about it has surprised me," Maggie said.

It took next month's The Dark Knight, in which Gyllenhaal co-stars with Christian Bale and the late Heath Ledger, to get her back to work.

From the looks of the previews, it was well worth it.

At home, Maggie Gyllenhaal says she receives tremendous support balancing parenthood and career from fiancé, Peter Sarsgaard.

"We share absolutely equally," she explained, and added that her younger brother Jake Gyllenhaal is "a great uncle."

In honor of the following, hideous dress worn by Maggie Gyllenhaal, allow us to make an insulting pun out of a trio of her movies. To wit:

• Mona Lisa Smile? More like Mona Lisa Frown!
• The Dark Knight? More like A Dark Night with This Thing On!
• This look is Stranger Than Fiction!

мебели

Thank you. We'll be here all week. Now, take a look at the dress and let us know your thoughts on it:

Maggie Gyllenhaal and fiance Peter Sarsgaard are seen here taking daughter Ramona for a stroll around Brooklyn this morning.

Isn't this family adorable?!?

Gyllenhaal can next be seen in The Dark Knight. Sarsgaard, of course, can be seen on other posts around The Hollywood Gossip.

Forget Heidi Klum.

Take your eyes off Gisele Bundchen.

Why bother with Patrice Hollis?

When lingerie line Agent Provocateur was looking for a new face - or, well, body - for its ad campaign, it went in an unconventional direction: quality actress Maggie Gyllenhaal.

"Maggie is not an obvious sex symbol," said Serena Rees, co-founder of Agent Provocateur. "She is interesting looking, confident and beautiful in a way that is non-threatening, which makes her appealing to men and women alike."

We can't argue with that, as Gyllenhaal replaces supermodel Kate Moss as Provocateur spokesmodel.

Based on this photo, the company made the right choice. Take a look, Kim Kardashian, this is how you do sexy instead of trashy:

This pic of Maggie Gyllenhaal is almost enough to make us not care about Holly Madison nude. You're a lucky man, Peter Sarsgaard.

Oops. Even The Hollywood Gossip gets it wrong sometimes.

We had initially reported that Rachel McAdams was on board for the next Batman movie, Dark Knight. But please allow us a mulligan.

It's now been confirmed that Maggie Gyllenhaal will take over the role of Rachel Dawes in the upcoming follow-up to Batman Begins. Yes, that's the role played by Katie Holmes, who reportedly had to drop out due to schedule conflict; aka, a demand by her insane husband.

Or is Mrs. Cruise not available because she'll be knocked up with a sibling for Suri Cruise? We'll be sure to keep you posted.

Either way, director Christopher Nolan is psyched to have Gyllenhaal in the film: "I'm extremely excited to work with an actress of Maggie's caliber, and she's a great addition to the cast as we continue our story."

Others in the cast include Heath Ledger as the Joker and Aaron Eckhart as the villain, Two-Face.

Meanwhile, the involvement of Gyllenhaal will likely leave adorable celebrity baby Ramona in the hands of her father, Peter Sarsgaard for awhile. But that's okay. We'd trust him with our kid.

Move over, Brangelina.

Take a seat, Bennifer.

Stop being insane, TomKat.

As adorable as these celebrity couples are with their babies, a new pair of contenders has emerged for the title of Cutest New Family.

We'll begin with Peter Sarsgaard and Maggie Gyllenhaal (right).

Please don't punish them - or their tyke, Ramona - just because they have difficult names to spell.

Does that make the couple any less in love? Think about it.

As you do, take a look at Spider-Man at play with his celebrity baby, Ruby.

She may not as well known as Suri Cruise, but the kid sure is a looker.

Tobey Maguire is having a lot of fun with her. Hopefully, he's teaching her all about the evil ways of the Green Goblin, as well.

Finally, Maguire's finacee, Jennifer Meyer, is looking away from the camera in this shot (below). That may be a good thing, though.

We love kids here at T.H. Gossip. All of them.

But there's no doubt certain celeb spawn dominate the press. Suri Cruise is huge (and Asian). Every move of Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt is fawned over. And the fact that the identity of Dannielynn Hope Marshall Stern's daddy is still in question does little to quell the fascination with that little bundle of joy.

That said, here's one of the celebrity babies we definitely don't see enough of. With fiancé Peter Sarsgaard at the Sundance Film Festival to promote their short film High Falls, Maggie Gyllenhaal and 3-month-old daughter Ramona kick back at Sunday brunch with a pal.

Wow, she's a cutie. We love Sarsgaarenhaal.
