The Bachelorette

So, Arie Luyendyk Jr. and Courtney Robertson hooked up the other night.

Here's The Bachelor runner-up and just-separated Bachelorette winner:

TMZ's pics of Court sucking face with Arie Luyendyk Jr. were taken Thursday at the fancy Quiessence Restaurant in Phoenix. Both are from the area.

They were reportedly "all over each other" the whole time.

Emily Maynard and Jef Holm called off their engagement and broke up over the weekend, according to a reliable source who seems to never be wrong.

Reality Steve claims that while no official announcement of their engagement ending has been reported, he knows for certain that the couple is done.

Steve posted the following about Emily Maynard and Jef Holm:

"I don’t care if you say I’m crazy ... until Jef and Emily [confirm it], I guess that’s when you’ll believe it, but I can tell you right now that Jef and Emily broke up this weekend."

"Done. Over. No longer engaged."

Jef Holm, winner of The Bachelorette, denies that his family is affiliated with polygamy, as a recent tabloid report implied (this guy is being put through it all).

According to Emily Maynard's fiance, this latest rumor went too far:

"Now they're going after my family? My family DOES NOT, and HAS NEVER had any affiliation with polygamy. Ever. Mormons = 1�� & 1��. �� = ��."

Emily Maynard and Jef Holm can't catch a break from the tabloids.

Last month, it was Emily supposedly cheating and getting caught sexting another man. This time, The Bachelorette winner is accused of paying him to stay engaged to her.

A source close to the couple denies those claims, of course.

"Everything is fine between them. They are a great couple and the wedding is definitely on," the insider says, laughing off reports that the engagement is now a "business deal."

Jef Holm and Emily Maynard have certainly been put to the test ever since The Bachelorette ended, but so far, they have passed that test with flying colors.

Between rumors of Emily cheating and the ever-present Bachelor curse (i.e. no one on the show actually stays together), things may not have looked good.

Good thing is, no one bothered to tell them that.

Not only are they not breaking up, they can't stand to be apart, according to E! News, which heard it from the southern belle and Jef Holm themselves last week.

Said Emily Maynard of her husband-to-be:

"It's so crazy how easy it is for me to be around him and um, you're with somebody a lot and you're together a lot and they start to get on your nerves a little bit."

"He does not get on my nerves! We can be together all the time and only leave each other to go to the bathroom, and I will miss him while I'm in the bathroom."

Safe to say she's probably not sexting other men with that kind of mentality. As far as a wedding goes, that is still in the plans; Jef just moved to Charlotte.

She did have something to say about his upcoming bachelor party, joking that ideally, it'll take place on "An all men's island where they do a lot of reading."

Not sure about that, Em, but we wouldn't worry about Jef. In other news, ABC is poised to name one of Emily's finalists Sean Lowe The Bachelor this winter.

Emily Maynard and Jef Holm: Will it last?

Despite what some celebrity gossip sources (cough, Us Weekly) would like you to believe, Emily Maynard and Jef Holm are so totally not on the rocks.

On Good Morning America today, The Bachelorette couple put on a united front ... which is probably just their actual front. They're totes in love.

"It's crazy," Jef said of reports that Emily Maynard was sexting some other man. "That’s just tabloid stuff ... rumors written about us and it's not true."

"Emily and I are so happy. We're great, we’re in love and we’re happy."

The rumors started, and were fueled a second time when Jef Holm's brother confirmed he leaked the story, and swore it was 100 percent true.

This left the People Water company CEO thoroughly baffled.

"I don’t know if he even knows why he did that," he says of the cheating allegations, which he denied again. "But I love my family and I love my brother."

"I support him and I know he supports us as a couple."

Holm went on to discuss his recent move to Charlotte, with Emily saying that they'll begin "chill" wedding planning after he gets settled.

Emily Maynard and Jef Holm: Built to last?

Jef Holm says he has no idea why his brother would accuse Emily Maynard of cheating on him and insists, adamantly, that The Bachelorette couple is fine.

Earlier this week, Us broke the "story" that Emily was sexting behind Jef's back, and that their family vacation ended early and tumultuously as a result.

The couple quickly denied the tabloid cover story, only to learn that the source of the report was Jef's brother Mike Holm ... who stood by it a second time.

That has Jef in disbelief - and denying it all over again.

"My family all says they are shocked, and obviously I'm shocked," Jef says of Mike, who vacationed with the Holms, Maynard and her daughter last weekend. But, he adds, if everybody knew the history he had with our family, no one would be surprised."

An emotional Jef Holm and Emily Maynard slammed the story, again.

"This whole story is 100 percent false," he reiterates.

Despite his denials, Jef Holm's recent family vacation ended in tears and heartbreak after he caught Emily Maynard cheating, his brother swears.

The 26-year-old stay-at-home mom and her daughter, Ricki, 7, recently joined Holm's extended family for a beach vacation in South Carolina.

On August 19, Holm was blindsided - according to Us Weekly - when he found explicit texts and photos to and from another man on Emily's phone.

Jef Holm's brother, Mike Holm, insists Us is correct.

"I can tell you that it's all 100% true. I was there and I heard the fight and watched the whole thing go down, Emily leaving and everything," Mike said.

"I love my brother very much and, like the rest of our family, I just want him to be happy. We all love Emily, too. Mistakes happen, we all get that."

"I hope they work it out, but as far as your story goes, it's all true."

Is it though? Emily and Jef have already denied the story, claiming the rumor is 100 percent false, then went on a PDA-filled trip to the grocery store.

Jef denied it again on Twitter two hours ago, writing "It's crazy what people will do, even family members, to see their name in a magazine."

What do you think? Will Emily and Jef last?

Emily Maynard is going on the record to deny a tabloid report that she's cheating on Jef Holm. The Bachelorette star says the rumors are 100% false.

"It's one hundred percent not true," Maynard tells People exclusively of the allegations that she was caught cheating on Jef Holm while on vacation.

According to Us, the couple had a blowout fight while vacationing with Holm's family in Myrtle Beach, S.C., after he found her sexting some dude.

Not the case, the lovebirds say.

"It's funny to me," Jef says. "We were in a gated community in a private home with just my brothers and sisters. It's just bogus a 'source' [saying] we were fighting."

"None of that is true."

The celebrity gossip magazine, which claims Holm asked Maynard to pack up and leave, made him scoff. "They must have packed me up, too," says Jef.

The couple, which left Myrtle Beach together, are now back in Charlotte, where Holm says he's looking for his own place near Emily and Ricki.

After dropping off Ricki (now in the first grade) at school, Emily Maynard says that she decided to respond to the rumors because she was stunned.

"I have never been more in love or felt more confident about our relationship," she says. "We're so excited about the future. I'm happier than I've ever been."

Another Bachelorette romance is on thin ice after Emily Maynard was caught cheating on fiance Jef Holm ... according to an unreliable tabloid report.

The celebrity gossip magazine reports that Emily fled a recent vacation in tears after Jef discovered her sending explicit photos and texts to another man.

We're talking seriously dirty stuff here. Allegedly. “There were texts and pictures: 'Let’s do this and that with each other,'" says a source. Yikes.

Not only that, the bad scene allegedly went down at a vacation rental where Jef Holm had taken Emily Maynard to meet his extended family.

“Jef and Emily went into a bedroom and were yelling. He said, ‘You’ve been f**king cheating on me for months!’” a source is quoted as saying.

His final words to her? "'Pack your s**t and get the f**k out.'"

Yeah. If that's true, obviously this is serious and shady on her part, but we have our doubts. Considering the source, it's a dubious claim at best.

If there's any tension between Emily Maynard and Jef, they sure weren't showing it during a lovey-dovey outing in Charlotte, N.C., yesterday.

The Bachelorette couple ran errands in her hometown, and either they were trying to not-so-subtly deny Us' cover story, or they're just that cute.

From the looks of these pics, that was likely bull$h!t ...
