Mark Philippoussis and Jennifer Esposito: Engaged!
Tennis player turned reality star Mark Philippoussis has just taken a 40-love lead on actress Jennifer Esposito, if you know what we're talkin' about!!
If you do, let us know. We have no idea at 6:58 in the morning EDT.
Bad tennis puns aside, the two are engaged, according to his rep:
"They are happily engaged and enjoying their time together."
The New York native, 36, and Australian professional tennis star, 32, got engaged this summer. In other news, Mark Philippoussis and Jennifer Esposito were dating!
Interesting that Mark fell for a slightly older woman in Jennifer.
Philippoussis may be a two-time Grand Slam finalist, but he is perhaps best known for starring on the NBC reality dating show Age of Love a few years back.
There, he was forced to choose between women in the 20s or 40s, a.k.a. "kittens" and the "cougars." He ended up picking "kitten" Amanda Salinas.
They broke up like an hour later.
Esposito, who has appeared on Samantha Who?, Rescue Me, Spin City and in the movie Crash, was previously married to actor Bradley Cooper.
Congrats to the happy couple!
Jennifer Esposito, Bradley Cooper Announce Separation
Our friends at TMZ inform us that actress Jennifer Esposito has filed for divorce from Bradley Cooper, who she was apparently married to for four months.
The documents, filed Tuesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court, cite irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split.
Jennifer Esposito started dating Cooper over a year before getting engaged in October of 2006, and tied the knot December 21.
They didn't last as long as Britney Spears and Kevin Federline, but they edged out Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock, so Jennifer and Bradley can take comfort in that.
They gave it a heck of a run (even though his rep says they've been separated "a while.") Esposito is best known for roles on TV's Spin City and in the Oscar-winning film Crash.
Cooper has starred in the mega-hit Wedding Crashers as well as Alias.
A rep for Esposito had no comment other than:
"Jennifer asks that you respect her privacy at this time."
Yeah, that's happening. As Keanu Reeves knows, you just can't go anywhere or do anything in this depraved era without the paparazzi and celebrity gossip websites tracking your every move, ruining your day and making your life a living hell.
