Katie Price And Leandro Penna Are ENGAGED!

Anyone hoping that Katie Price and Simon Cowell would take their rumored-fling and make it into something more are going to be disappointed, because it appears that the UK glamour model/reality fixture has become engaged for the third time…to her Argentinian model boyfriend, Leandro Penna!

The pair were spotted out and about in London this past week, with Jordan wearing a massive pink engagement ring, and her spokesman confirms:

“Its true they are engaged. Leandro proposed to Katie while they were away skiing recently and she said yes. They told her children but had intended to keep it secret for a while. No wedding arrangements have been made and they are both quite relaxed about that for the time being.”

Well of course no arrangements have been made – she still isn’t completely divorced from her second husband, Alex Reid!

But hey! If they’re happy – and don’t mind exchanging vows with translators – then who are we to judge?

Congratulations, you two! All the best!

Jennifer Lopez is exploring the idea of “having a surrogate child” with Casper Smart, reports OK!

According to the mag, “The idea to go the surrogacy route came after the couple visited Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, whose 15-month-old daughter, Faith, was carried by a surrogate.”

A supposed “insider” for the tabloid says, “She’s looking into a gestational carrier pregnancy,” noting, “Jennifer’s getting older, but she loves the idea of using her DNA and Casper’s DNA, but having a surrogate do the nine months of work.”

Smart has even supposedly “recruited his aunt to help find a candidate,” reveal OK!s “sources.”

One of these alleged insiders claims, “Casper’s favorite aunt lives in Australia, and she thinks her nephew’s surrogate could come from there.”

Um… why Australia?

And how come they’re going through Smart’s aunt?

If these “details” about the couple’ alleged surrogacy plan seem a bit odd, it’s because the mag’s entire story is made up.

A rep for Lopez tells Gossip Cop the tab’s tale is simply “inaccurate.”
