A new report indicates that Leighton Meester and Adam Brody just got engaged, which is either a tabloid’s version of fan fiction or the greatest news ever.
At least if you’re a fan of teen dramas that started off so promisingly and then declined precipitously in later seasons, but still hold a place in your heart.
According to Star Magazine, the couple of 10 months is heading to the altar after the former Gossip Girl star accepted The OC star’s surprise proposal.
“Leighton and Adam are crazy about each other and have talked about getting married eventually,” an insider says. “But she had no idea he would propose!"
"It was the surprise of her life and she’s absolutely ecstatic!”
The couple has not confirmed this news, so until they do, take it with a grain of salt. Ditto Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams getting back together.
Epic gossip like this requires an element of caution. Breathe.
Adam Brody, 33, and Leighton Meester, 27, have been friends for years, getting close in 2011 while co-starring in the independent film, The Oranges.
In January, they took their relationship to the next level.
Adam previously dated director Lorene Scafaria and his former OC co-star Rachel Bilson for three years. Leighton had a two-year romance with Sebastian Stan.
“Right now their plan is to get married next summer,” adds the insider. “They are still deciding if they want a destination wedding or if they’ll marry in Southern California.”
May we suggest Orange County?
UPDATE: MSN and Us Weekly have confirmed the news! Congratulations to Leighton, Adam and all those TV viewers rooting for this duo made in heaven!
