Tying The Knot

Ansel Elgort and his girlfriend raised eyebrows this weekend in a high-end jewelry store, where they seemed to be shopping for bling in an area couples often go before saying, "I do."

The actor was spotted browsing through a display case Saturday at Tiffany & Co. in Bev Hills -- and we got a shot of him and his GF of damn near 8 years, Violetta Komyshan, looking at something she was trying on ... on a floor where we're told engagement rings are sold.

Ansel and Violetta were on the second floor of the 3-floor shop -- and Tiffany & Co. tells us that's where they peddle their diamond rocks at this location. Unclear what piece of jewelry captured their gaze, but they were definitely being helped by an employee.

In fact, an eyewitness tells us Violetta was actually checking various pieces -- again, though, no word on what specifically. That said, rings are certainly available in the showroom.

From the looks of the photo, it's a bit hard to tell if the couple is staring down at Violetta's finger or wrist, or if Ansel himself is holding something between his fingers. But, IF they were actually peeping possible engagement rings, the timing would make sense.

Ansel and Violetta appear to have just touched down after a romantic holiday getaway in the Dominican Republic, where the PDA between them two was on full display. They were staying at an expensive private villa, which rents for $15k a night. They stayed a full week.

Not only that, but Ansel and Violetta have been together since 2012 ... and look to be very much in love. What better way to ring in the New Year than with ... well, a ring?

We've reached out to Ansel's reps for comment ... so far, no word back.

John Cena does not seem at all bothered by the fact his ex-girlfriend, Nikki Bella, is engaged ... he's way too involved in his new relationship.

John was leaving the Montage hotel in Bev Hills Friday night with GF, Shay Shariatzadeh ... he's been dating her for several months. He said back in November, "I'm extremely happy."  It seems like he still is.

Eyewitnesses tell us John and Shay were dining outside, drinking wine, kissing and holding hands. Not sure if they ate anything!

As we reported, Nikki announced Friday she's engaged to her "Dancing with the Stars" partner, Artem Chiqvintsev. Turns out they've been engaged since November ... when he popped the question to her in France.

John and Nikki broke up in 2018. They were together for 6 years, but the subject of having children seemed to torpedo the relationship.

Christ Bearer -- the rapper who chopped off his own manhood -- is a married man now ... proving once and for all, there's someone special out there for everybody.

The former Wu-Tang affiliated MC tells TMZ ... he and his new wife, Cheryl, tied the knot Dec. 30 in a super-small ceremony ... and his junk was fully functional on their wedding night!!!

Christ tells us he and Cheryl dated for 6 months before walking down the aisle, and they've known each other even longer. He says she keeps him grounded and focused on his work, and she's been his support system ever since his painful penis incident.

You'll recall ... Christ Bearer cut off his man meat before jumping out a window during a mental breakdown back in 2014, but surgeons were able to reattach his wood.

Bearer even tried to land a starring role in a porno film ... but it didn't pan out and he moved on to stand up comedy.

Now, CB says he's working on a new album ... and he's also planning a much bigger wedding ceremony with Cheryl.

Congrats!!!

Teresa Giudice's marriage to Joe apparently got off on the wrong foot 20 years ago ... because she claims he forced her to sign a prenup.

"The Real Housewives of New Jersey" star made the revelation on Wednesday night's episode as she and her husband had a heated argument over the phone ... while Joe was in ICE custody.

Teresa shouted, "You made me sign a prenup, okay?" and later claimed in a confessional he asked her to sign it a week before they tied the knot ... much to her dismay. She said, "I just felt when you love someone, you don't do that."

Teresa went on to say she considered calling off the wedding over it, but decided instead to sign the prenup under one condition -- she made him add a clause stating if he ever cheated ... the prenup was off.

Woooooooo!!!!!

WWE superstar Charlotte Flair is ringing in 2020 ... with a ring!!!

The 10-time WWE women's champ is officially engaged after her WWE superstar boyfriend, Andrade, popped the question on New Year's Eve!

"She said siiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!" 30-year-old Andrade announced late Tuesday night.

"Si," Flair posted herself a few minutes later.

Charlotte -- one of the biggest stars in pro wrestling and daughter of WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair -- went public with her relationship with Andrade back in April, when the two walked the red carpet at a Wrestlemania 35 event.

Andrade -- real name Manuel Alfonso Andrade Oropeza -- is having a pretty good week ... he won the WWE's U.S. title on Dec. 26 after defeating Rey Mysterio.

The Mexican-born wrestler turned pro back in 2003 and worked the lucha libre circuit for years before eventually signing with WWE back in 2015.

They've only been engaged for two weeks, but Holly Sonders and pro gambler Vegas Dave are already talking divorce .... because you can actually BET MONEY if their relationship will last!!!

This is TRUE -- multiple online sports betting sites are taking real action on their relationship, from the length of marriage to honeymoon destination to when/if Holly gets pregnant!!

It's wild stuff -- but shouldn't be too shocking considering the wild prop bets we've seen in pro sports over the years (remember the "Will Katy Perry Show Cleavage" Super Bowl bet?!).

But, Holly and Dave aren't offended -- in fact, outside Avra in Bev Hills, the couple seemed pretty amused by the whole thing!

Of course, VD -- real name Dave Oancea -- proposed to the sports reporter/model during a trip to Cabo San Lucas earlier this mont after only a few weeks of dating.

Not only did Holly accept, but she's proudly rocking the 10-carat yellow diamond ring all over town!

The two have been spotted all over L.A. together -- from the strip clubs to floor seats at Laker games ... flaunting their collection of super expensive Birkin bags.

So, will they get married? Where will they honeymoon? Holly gives out a clue in the footage ... just don't blame us if you actually bet and lose.

Nick Young saved his girlfriend's best gift for last ... asking her to marry him with a MASSIVE engagement ring!!!

The charming moment went down on Christmas morning with help from his son, Nick Jr. who filmed the whole thing. You can see Nick grab the huge ring box from a different room and walk over to his baby mama Keonna Green and said the proposal is "way overdue."

It's a pretty swaggy moment ... the entire fam -- wearing matching PJs -- saw Nick tell Keonna he wants to spend the rest of his life with her and, of course, she said yes. Nick let out a huuuuge cheer after he slipped the ring on her. He then turned to his son and said, "We did it, son!!" Nick Jr. was stoked about it too.

We're told Nick worked with Jason of Beverly Hills to come up with the perfect ring for his Keonna ... and he was really stoked with the results.

"Nick was very hands on and took his time to design the ring and plan the proposal. You can tell he really enjoyed the process and I can definitely see the connection between him and Keonna. He proposed to his soulmate," Jason Arasheben, CEO Jason of Beverly Hills tells us.

Nick and Keonna started dating in high school. They have 3 kids together ... Nick Jr., daughter Navi and daughter Nyce, who was born in July.

Hilary Duff just married Matthew Koma in a private at-home ceremony in Los Angeles ... TMZ has learned.

A source close to the newlyweds tells us friends and family were invited to the couple's home Saturday for the wedding -- we're told it took place in the backyard -- and was extremely intimate.

Hilary later shared a photo of her and Matthew decked out head-to-toe in their wedding gear. You can tell they went with a simple approach, with huge smiles and an old-school whip parked just behind them.

Hilary and Matt got engaged back in May after dating for several years. Duff gave birth to the couple's daughter, Banks, in October of last year. She has a 7-year-old son, Luca, with her ex-husband, Mike Comrie.

Hilary has a busy year ahead ... it was recently announced that as part of its new programming, Disney+ will be doing a reboot of "Lizzie McGuire" which she starred in from 2001-2004.

Raymond Santana -- one of the wrongfully convicted Central Park Five -- just got engaged to a reality star, and tells us it wouldn't have been possible without a little Instagram flirting.

Raymond was on "TMZ Live" Friday to give us the lowdown on his engagement to "Flavor of Love" star Deelishis, to whom he proposed on Thursday during a lunch date in ATL. Ray says he was pretty sly about it, dropping a faux attitude on his girl before he popped the question.

And, for all those thirsty folks on the 'Gram ... Raymond's here to tell you why shooting your shot can pay major dividends. The story of how he and Deelishis met is so 2019, ya gotta watch the clip. Dude's a romantic.

Of course, Ava DuvVernay's Netflix series "When They See Us" turned a spotlight on Raymond's story -- highlighting the injustice of his conviction for the brutal 1989 rape and beating of a female jogger in NYC.

We asked Raymond if he would accept an apology from former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg for his administration's role in avoiding a settlement in the CP5's damage suit against the NYPD after their convictions were vacated.

You might recall ... Bloomberg avoided settling the case before leaving office, and Mayor Bill de Blasio's administration agreed in 2014 to pay the CP5 a settlement of more than $40 million.

Talk about moving FAST!!!

Sports reporter Holly Sonders and high-stakes gambler Vegas Dave have only been dating for 1 WEEK ... and they're already dropping L-bombs and talking marriage!

"It's love," Dave told us while out with Holly in Bev Hills ... "We're getting married in Cabo."

Seems like he's joking about the quickie marriage, but they're super into each other and have been virtually inseparable since they started dating last week.

"Our first date was at a strip club in Vegas and it was on Thanksgiving," Holly says with a smile.

"We had a good time," Dave adds ... "We both got our hustle on, we both got our millions so it's like we're a good power couple."

The two have been strip club regulars since they hooked up -- hitting up Crazy Girls in Hollywood this week where they were seen throwing tons of cash at the dancers.

"If we spent $15,000 at a strip club last night with no lap dances, we're doing well," Dave explained.

So, what's the plan moving forward ... Dave says he's bringing Holly as his date to the Lakers game, where he spends a FORTUNE to sit in Jack Nicholson's floor seats.

Dave says he spends more than $20k on those 2 seats -- and usually leaves one empty as a resting spot for his Birkin handbag.

"But, now I get to go," Holly brags.

R. Kelly's now facing a new allegation in one of his federal cases, and it involves his 1994 marriage to Aaliyah.

According to federal docs, obtained by TMZ, prosecutors say around Aug. 30, 1994 ... Kelly and others paid money to a public official for "the creation of a fraudulent identification document for Jane Doe #1." The significant part of the allegation is the date.

One of R. Kelly's former tour manager's, Demetrius Smith, spoke out in "Surviving R. Kelly" and said he purchased a fake ID for Aaliyah, who was 15 at the time, so she would be able to marry Kelly.

Smith says they got a marriage license, which listed her age as 18, and they did indeed get married. It's been widely reported the wedding took place on Aug. 31.

According to prosecutors, that fake ID purchase constitutes bribery, and that allegation's been added to the racketeering charge against him in the Eastern District of New York.

Kelly's lawyer, Steven Greenberg, tells TMZ they will review the indictment, but "at first look it does not appear to materially alter the landscape." And, Kelly's other attorney, Doug Anton, claims "the charge is ridiculous and it smacks of the same desperation as the entire case."

Nick Jonas woke up to a face full of paws and licks this morning, 'cause Priyanka Chopra dropped one helluva cute surprise on him ahead of their wedding anniversary.

The actress posted an adorable video Tuesday showing what the couple's morning looked like in NYC after she brought home a German Shepherd pup-aroo ... and then placed it on top of the bed to finish waking her hubby up. Yeah, it's pretty freakin' AWW worthy.

At first, Nick seemed disoriented and confused by what was happening ... but eventually, he realized there was a new member being added to their household.

Looks like the couple has already named their pet -- he goes by Gino, and yes ... he already has his own Instagram account. So far, Gino's been pretty active .. throwing up 3 posts.

Gino's arrival comes just days before Nick and Priyanka's 1-year wedding anniversary. They had several celebrations, if you'll recall, but the one that made it official happened on Dec. 1.

The Rock and his new 'Jumanji' costar, Danny DeVito, did their best Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson south of the border -- but, truthfully, it's hard to say if it's an ad or for real.

Case in point ... Dwayne Johnson's video from Sunday -- he and Danny elaborately ducked in on someone's wedding down in Cabo San Lucas and crooned to the crowd. It's sooo well-produced ... like a short film or something ... it feels like it was staged.

However, the pics of their wedding crashing cameo seem pretty candid ... so maybe it wasn't a stunt, and did in fact happen spontaneously.

Check it out ... DD and DJ were celebrating their recently completed week full of interviews promoting 'Jumanji.' It appears they heard the wedding party going down nearby, and decided to crash. Yep, just like it was written in a movie script.

Then comes what looks to be the real-life moment when they pop into the ceremony through the back kitchen with a mic in hand, and they belt out Nat King Cole's "Unforgettable." The wedding guests couldn't get enough and ate it up.

The 2 actors had some kind words for the happy couple afterward and took some pics with the whole wedding party.

Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan wanted to be single in the eyes of the law while they settled their divorce ... and a judge just granted their wish.

The former couple recently filed court docs asking the court to grant the divorce while they hash out a property settlement and custody agreement. As for why they wanted the divorce decree now ... we're told they're both in relationships and it just makes things easier. It also clears the path if they want to remarry.

According to the new docs, filed by Jenna's lawyer Samantha Spector, the divorce judgment became final Tuesday. So, now they have to work out custody and support issues involving 6-year-old Everly.

Jenna recently announced she and her new boyfriend, Steve Kazee, are expecting their first child together. Rumors of a coming engagement have been swirling ever since.

While it would appear Jenna is the one zeroing in on another marriage, that doesn't mean Channing hasn't moved on himself ... he's just as free to tie the knot.

As we reported ... he's been dating Jessie J as of late, but things don't seem to have been moving as fast as they have for Jenna and Steve.

Cristiano Ronaldo is still happily unmarried ... despite reports he secretly wife'd up his longtime girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, during a recent trip to Morocco.

TMZ Sports spoke with CR7's team which confirms the reports are FALSE -- "He hasn't gotten married."

The rumors all stemmed from a report out of Italy, where 34-year-old Ronaldo plays soccer for FC Juventus.

Novela 2000 cited a "source" that claimed Ronaldo and Georgina got hitched earlier this summer in a "low key ceremony." The report also claimed Ronaldo has since changed his will to include 25-year-old Georgina.

But, alas, it's all BS.

Ronaldo and Georgina have been dating for years and it seems like marriage is just a matter of time. Just last year there were huge engagement rumors after Georgina flashed a massive diamond ring at a Portugal game in Russia. But, she later told media it was NOT an engagement ring.

Lamar Odom is engaged ... again ... but this time he swears he found "The One!"

The 40-year-old ex-NBA star popped the question to his 32-year-old girlfriend, Sabrina Parr, with a MASSIVE diamond ring ... and she said, "Yes!"

"Introducing my new fiancé," Odom said ... "Soon to be Mrs. Parr-Odom. She's the ONE!!!"

Parr is a health and life coach -- and we first saw them together back in August when they hit up Chipotle for a lunch date in Atlanta.

Things escalated quickly ... and 3 months later, they're engaged!

There were reports the relationship was "fake" when they first got together -- but doesn't seem so fake now, does it?

As for the proposal, 'Real Housewives' star NeNe Leakes was apparently in the building ... she posted, "So glad I could be here wit you. Love both of you and praying over this union."

Of course, Odom has a history of proposing quickly -- he popped the question to Khloe Kardashian back in 2009 and they tied the knot after only 1 month of dating.

The two split in 2013 -- but for years, Odom was adamant Khloe was the love of his life and he'd win her back.

Khloe eventually moved on ... and it's good to see Lamar has too.

Congrats!
