I was pleasantly surprised by the following news (which I first heard about on "Entertainment Tonight"):

Kate Winslet is planning to marry her fianci next summer. She met Jim Threapleton nearly a year ago on the set of her forthcoming film "Hideous Kinky", in Morocco, where he was an assistant director (an "Eh-Dee").

(An AD is the foreman of a film crew.)

I'm delighted to say that yes, it's true, and I'm very happy for her! She's actually been engaged since summer, but no one knew of it. Good for her! I'm glad to hear that she will be married. I wish her a long and happy marriage! Kelly :-)

This is great news! I'm so happy for her and her lucky husband-to-be. They look like they're both very much in love so I'm sure this is one marriage that will last.

This news is shocking for me!

I'm happy for Kate and Jim (god,i hope you make her happy....!) but it's not fair!I saw Kate first!

If only i, civillian, got a chance, but i know in showbizz the chance to get an relationship with a famous someone is unthinkable.

My heart bleeds, i stupid idiot really thought, that i could ever meet Kate,and win her heart,now i wake up and immediately i think how to com trough a day knowing she's mmmmmm.......ried!

Always be there for you Kate, eventhough you don't know who i am.
