Simon Cowell is rumored to be engaged.

Reports suggest that the famous TV personality whom everyone loves to hate, Simon Cowell, might be engaged. Simon allegedly proposed to his 36-year-old girlfriend, Mezghan Hussainy, over dinner last Valentine’s Day at an exclusive London restaurant.

50-year-old Simon Cowell broke up with Terri Seymour a year and a half ago.

The engagement rumors started when Mezghan Hussainy, a make-up artist, was seen wearing a £250,000 diamond ring. Plus, a close friend of Simon reported that Simon seemed so happy this recent weeks. Mezghan and Simon have known each other for several years and they have gotten very close to each other. According to the source, Simon finally popped the question.

Furthermore, the source said that Simon knows that it’s the right time. It will be the one of the biggest showbiz wedding ceremonies in years.

The 50-year-old multimillionaire, Cowell, has long been known to be very protective of his money. He even once defined marriage as an obsolete contract. Surprisingly, he seemed to have changed his mind. When the news about his engagement broke out, his friends immediately gave their support.

Simon reportedly asked his friends to be quiet about the engagement because of what he said over the years. They think he is a little embarrassed about it.

Another source said that Simon is totally smitten by Mezghan, and he knows that there is nothing she wants more than to be married and start a family.

When Simon was interviewed this week by Piers Morgan, Cowell told the journalist that he thinks she is “the one.” Moreover, he spoke about wanting to have children with her, but he failed to deny or confirm the engagement.

This news sure is surprising because it pertains about someone who appeared to be totally indifferent about marriage. This just goes to show that you can never be too sure about a person. So to all the wannabe brides out there in Durham: don’t lose hope if your man hasn’t popped the question yet; that dream wedding venue in Durham might be closer than you think.

An example of a vintage wedding dress.

If you are a local bride-to-be who aspires to look beautiful, stylish, unique, and unforgettable in your wedding photo in Durham, but feel a little bit budget-constrained, perhaps you might want to opt for a vintage wedding gown. Many brides-to-be nowadays are setting their eyes on vintage designs. Vintage wedding gowns can provide the same level of beauty and stylishness without being heavy on the budget. Plus, they make future brides look way more unique and unforgettable.

According to Rachel Leonard, the director of Brides magazine, there is now a market for old school wedding dresses. Combining retro and modern styles in wedding gowns has become big, be it the veil or the dress, or the cocktail hat, or even just the wedding shoes.

Leonard said that two styles have become very salable: the 1930’s Hollywood-inspired gowns and the 1950’s designs with the full skirts and tight waists. The trend for retro wedding gowns is partly because of the TV hit series Mad Men which created a desire for the formal gowns of the 1960’s.

In addition, Carmen Haid, operator of an online haven for vintage wedding gowns called Atalier Mayer, said that for the women who have hourglass body figures, 1950’s-inpired vintage wedding gowns would make them look stunning. Meanwhile, for the tall and slim women, there is nothing more flattering than slipping on an Ossie Clarke number from the 70’s.
