Justin Timberlake, Jessica Biel Engaged: Singer, Actress To Marry (REPORT)

Jessica Biel Justin Timberlake Engaged

Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are engaged. Us Weekly reports that the "Sexy Back" singer proposed to Biel in late December, while vacationing in Jackson, Wyoming -- a testament to Biel's love for snowboarding and the mountains.

The pair's relationship first came to light in 2007, when Timberlake, 30, and Biel, 29, were spotted together in Utah at the Sundance Film Festival. The pair remained one of the most visible couples in Hollywood until last March, when they decided to take a three-month break. But destiny is destiny, and by the fall they were together again, even double-dating with Biel's parents in October.

"When they reunited, they had a conversation about taking the next step," an insider told the magazine.

Just last month, the pair were more than cozy at a dinner for luxury leather brand Tod's at the Chateau Marmont. Meanwhile, rumors of an engagement first surfaced in mid-December, when it was reported that Timberlake had proposed to Biel while at the five-star Amangani Resort in Wyoming; those rumors may prove to have been well-founded.

In June, the typically private Timberlake made it clear to Vanity Fair that Biel still held a special place in his heart -- even though at the time the pair had called it quits.

"She is the single-handedly most significant person in my life ... In my 30 years, she is the most special person, ok? I just don't want to say much more, because I have to protect things that are dear to me - for instance, her," he said.

HuffPost Celebrity has reached out to Timberlake and Biel's reps for comment.

Nice news.

If they do get married, what's the prediction that they will be filing for divorce due to irrconcilable differences within the first 16 months? Are the wedding gifts really that good? Or, do they just get paid a lot for the "leaked" pictures? Money is money, so if they can make it by simply saying a few words...well, they are actors, after all, so what's the difference? It's just a script. Make believe. Not reality tv. And people are still hungry for such crappy gossip. Who's next...to divorce? Ellen?

Dude, you're the luckiest guy in the universe.
Seriously, the hottest woman bar none (with a slight nod to Angelina).
11:27 PM on 01/06/2012
Hottest woman? Bar NONE??!! I can think of 10 or so that are hotter without much effort. Salma Hayek, Olivia Wilde, Marisa Miller, Bar Refaeli, Audrina Patridge, Brooklyn Decker, Adriana Lima, Kelly Brook, Irina Shayk and Cheryl Cole come quickly to mind. Jessica Biel is attractive, but she just ain't all that I'm afraid.

I've always gotten the feeling that he's just not that into her...

Want to say Congrats thats Wonderful, but please dont even bother getting married if you are okay with divorce. period. You are really only to be congratulated if you can unite together and make it work no matter your differences throughout your lifetime here on earth. And I am not bitter just embarrased of all the people especially celebrity couples i. e. KimK that play with holy unions like theyre on the playground. Mkay thanks thats it.....

I don't understand why anyone in their line of work would get married. Yes they may love each other and want the status or lable of being the Mr. and Mrs. the head liv=nes pictures how pretty the wedding was, gifts, oh yea and don't forget the publicity then after a while it's like oh what happened, cheating, lies, he was addicted to sex and had to go into treatment. You know that is a big one these days. Just live together and act like you are married. Look Goldie Hahn and Kurt Russel have lived together for years. Hollywood marriages won't work. Don't Do It.

what makes you think because someone isnt a celebrity the marriages will work??most marriages do not work at all

Try to figure that one out for yourself. You don't have to have a Phd..

Good for them! This one may work because they waited and didn't rush.
