On the Road to Happiness
The hot couple we think will go the distance:Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal
After much speculation about their relationship, Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are finally out and proud.After meeting on set of the upcoming movie Rendition, the pair first began dating around March this year, although they were careful to avoid being photographed together. However, Reese called the romance off in June, according to reports but now it's clear their love affair is most definitely back on Reese, who has recently divorced from Ryan Philippe, previously denied a romance with the Brokeback Mountain star. But now that word is out, this looks like a match made in heaven and the cute couple are bound to go the distance.Jay-Z and Beyoncé Knowles
One of the best couples to come out of the USA for a long time, Beyoncé Knowles and Jay-Z began dating after collaborating on the hit single '03 Bonnie and Clyde' in 2002.The bling-encrusted couple have been notoriously guarded about their 4-year relationship. However, recent rumors that this couple wed in secret after Jay-Z proposed to Beyoncé, 26, during a luxury holiday in Cannes at the end of May.
The superstar couple are said to be "blissfully happy" after tying the knot in a small private ceremony in Paris, during which they reportedly had personal inscriptions tattooed on their ring fingers.
Earlier this month the pair celebrated Jay-Z's 38th birthday by watching an erotic cabaret show at Paris' famous nightclub le Crazy Horse Paris.
Prince William and Kate Middleton
The on-off relationship between Kate Middleton and Prince William has sparked intense media interest over the past four years and despite a brief split in April the couple now seem stronger than ever.
After meeting when the 25-year-old beauty was a history of art student at Scotland's St Andrews University, the pair have recently moved in together, further fuelling rumours of a possible engagement after Kate reportedly turned down an invitation to spend Christmas with the royal family, saying she wanted to wait until she is officially Prince William's wife before joining in the festivities.
Keira Knightley and Rupert Friend
Now theres a beautiful couple if I ever did see one. And one certainly destined to live happily ever after following the announcement of their engagement in November.
FHMs 5th Sexiest Woman in the World plans to tie the knot with her alleged fiancé, actor Rupert Friend, next year.
Only one problem; The Pirates of The Caribbean star is scared to get married for fear the ceremony won't live up to her dream wedding in romantic comedy Love Actually.
After meeting on the set of 'Pride and Prejudice' last year, the couple hope to tie the knot in Italy much like Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise Lets just hope this marriage is a little less dramatic.
Lily Allen and Ed Simon
Despite being slammed in the press by their relationship, Lily Allen and Ed Simon look set for life after finding out they are expecting after only two months of being together.
Lily's pregnancy news comes after the singer recently dropped two British dress sizes and signed a deal with lingerie label Agent Provocateur.
After splitting from long-term boyfriend Seb Chew earlier this year, Lily looks happier than ever beside her new man.
Baby or not, this couple certainly seem like that have a very happy future together.
Heading for Disaster
The couples we don't think will make it through 2008:
Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds
Eddie Murphy isnt exactly the man youd want to take home to meet your parents. Luckly for us though, he only has eyes for one woman, Tracey Edmonds.
Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds
Eddie Murphy isnt exactly the man youd want to take home to meet your parents. Luckly for us though, he only has eyes for one woman, Tracey Edmonds.
The couple hooked up after parting with their long-time spouses. After just 10 months of dating, the Shrek 3 star put a dazzling 8-carat Cartier rock on the TV producer's left hand, whilst his ex, Mel B, was five months pregnant with his child. Nice.
Showing his caring side, Murphy publicly ended his relationship with Angel Iris mother Melanie Brown on a Dutch TV show last year after she had announced that she was pregnant with his child.
Good luck to them both, but I wouldnt hold my breath over this one if I were you.
Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens
It was love at first sight for actor Zac Efron when he met his girlfriend and co-star Vanessa Hudgens but can this childhood romance really stand the test of time?
The 19-year-old star met 18-year-old Vanessa at the casting for Disney hit movie High School Musical, and admits he instantly fell for his future co-star.
Teen actor Zac Efron has played down reports he wears a 'commitment' ring from High School Musical co-star and girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens, insisting commitment is "way too weird a word" for him at such a young age.
Despite being together a year; a commitment-phobe boyfriend doesnt bode well for the happy ending Hudgens is probably planning over milkshakes with her girlfriends.
Marilyn Manson and Evan Rachel Wood
Why do the ugly guys always get the beautiful girls? Marilyn Manson split with wife Dita Von Teese late last year, but he's already found a new soul mate in 19-year-old Evan Rachel Wood, 20 years his junior.
There is a lot of speculation that Manson's relationship with Wood was a factor in Von Teese's decision to file for divorce in Dec last year.
Much like his burlesque dancer ex, the 19-year-old is captured writhing around naked, having passionate sex, with Manson in the video for his new song Heart-Shaped Glasses with many believing the couple actually made love for the cameras as it rained blood.
Now isnt that something to make daddy proud? Even if this relationship does last, I feel very sorry for their unborn children.
Sienna Miller and Rhys Ifans
Once again I ask myself why the ugly guys get the beautiful girls. This time its the unfathomable connection between Beauty Sienna Miller and Rhys Ifans.
The five-month old relationship is already starting to show cracks after Sienna told the 'Notting Hill' actor she is tired of trying to fit in with his circle of friends.
Rhys was left shocked when Sienna smashed a piñata - a papier-mâché container filled with sweets - to pieces with a wooden bat because it reminded her of Kate Moss, who is make life very difficult for Sienna as she feels left out.
Regardless of rumors that Rhys has actually officially moved in and has contracted Boucheron Jewelers in Paris, France to make a £35,000 diamond necklace for Siennas 26th birthday at the end of this month, this unlikely pairing have a lot of work to do if they want to beat catwalk Queen Moss.
Nadine Coyle and Jesse Metcalfe
Are they on are they off? Well for the moment its all systems go.
The couple, who split earlier this year over claims Jesse had cheated on Nadine were seen house-hunting in Los Angeles at the weekend and were reported to have been getting quite cosy, laughing and joking with each other.
Nadine has always insisted Jesse - who recently completed a stint in rehab for alcoholism - didnt cheat on her during their relationship despite him being photographed with a variety of women.
Jesse is also facing criminal charges after being accused of punching a photographer outside a London nightclub. Not exactly the model boyfriend then?
If its not women, fighting or alcohol, only time will tell what his next slip up will be. Come on Nadine, does a leopard change his spots? Who said relationships were easy? Let us know who you think will still be steaming hot in 2009.
