Later in 2011 the couple got back together and the engagement was back on. In March 2012 Olcay told the Dutch Grazia that she hoped to be a mom. In her ideal world she'd have "sort of a nomad child, that travels with me." She fantasized of Edgar being a full-time dad. Last month word got out that their relationship was hitting a rough patch, Olcay then said, "A marriage is not in the cards. We're absolutely not planning anything."

Where did it go wrong? Inside Tony and Mandy's break up

Tony Wyczynski, aka Sterretje, was convinced of his choice in the TV dating show In Love With Sterretje. After weeks of hilarious (tip: don't wear a tube top when horse back riding or you'll put your boobs on display like Stephanie did) and crazy (an angry Daisy will "drink your blood like it's tomatojuice") TV, Tony picked Mandy. It was obvious from day one that Tony would pick Mandy, but now it's all over. The relationship between the Oh, Oh Cherso reality star and the lingerie model is over.

Mandy tells Dutch newspaper AD that she blames the makers of the TV show for the break up, (translated) "When we came back from Gran Canaria on April 1st, we were head over heels, but we weren't allowed to see each other until the final show on June 4th, otherwise our relationship might come out already." Parting for two months was a blow to the relationship, "We'd sometimes meet in secret, but immediately we grew apart. It's not the best start of a relationship!"

The 21-year old doesn't regret taking part in the show, "I had a great time [...] I still get butterflies in my stomach when I see or talk to Tony. It's not me." Mandy doesn't exclude contacting Tony in a couple of weeks, to see where they both stand, "Who knows, we might get back together." However, Roxy Paay, related to Dutch Diva Patricia Paay, claims that she and Tony are in a relationship, so 'patching things up' could be completely out of the question. Still, Mandy says, "I take Tony's word that none of that is true."

Did Willow Smith get her tongue pierced?

Did Willow get her tongue pierced? ©  Courtesy Willow Smith
Did she or didn't she? A photo of 11-year old Willow Smith with an apparent tongue piercing has caused quite commotion. The Whip My Hair singer is seen in the photo alongside a friend with a lip piercing and appears to have gotten her tongue pierced. Gossip Cop reports that the jewelry isn't real, a source close to Willow/the Smith family says, "It isn't a piercing, it's a magnet. Just a young girl having fun with accessories."

What do you think? Is it real?

Also, Willow might be terribly young for a real piercing, but the tongue magnets can be very dangerous, since they're easy to swallow and can cause a perforated bowel. So what't the better option here?

Jack Osbourne has been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). He was given the diagnosis a mere two weeks after the April 24th birth of his daughter with fiancé Lisa Stelly, Pearl Clementine. MS affects the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, the internal communication of those cells becomes less effective. The disease differs from patient to patient. An MS patient can have almost any neurological symptom, such as muscle weakness, numbness, loss of sensitivity, difficulties regarding balance and coordination, visual problems, difficulty swallowing and/or speaking. Cognitive symptoms are also possible, such as depression and an unstable mood. The life expectancy of an MS patient is 5-10 years less than the average population.

Amber said, "Isabetta Rose was born on Cinco de Mayo. Isabetta was born with a full head of brown hair and blue eyes. She still has all of her hair almost six weeks later, and her eyes are still as blue as can be. Her sisters can't get enough of her. They always want to hold her and I'm not sure who gives her more kisses - her big sisters or her parents."

Rose as a middle name is a tradition in the Mariano household. Amber said, "Rob really liked the idea of all of our girls sharing the same middle name. Many cousins on his side also share Rose as their middle name." Isabetta was a first name contender, but nothing was decided until after her birth, "we never name our babies until we actually meet them. When we saw her for the first time that afternoon, we knew it was the perfect name for her."

After 12 years of marriage Ruud Gullit has filed for divorce from Estelle Gullit-Cruijff. The former football/soccer international and now football/soccer trainer, 49, told Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf that the marriage was on the rocks for quite a while already, but that 'recent revelations' made him file for divorce from his wife of 12 years, the niece of famed Dutch football/soccer international Johan Cruijff.

Rumour has it that Estelle, 33, is having an extra-marital affair with boxer Badr Hari, 27. Estelle keeps quiet, but several news outlets report similar stories: Estelle and Badr met at the JFK Gala last October and have since been seen at the Conservatorium Hotel in Amsterdam, a charity event for Emma Kinderziekenhuis (a children's hospital), at café De Joffers and new Amsterdam hotspot The Harbour Club. Badr seems to be quite the bad boy. In 2006 he was convicted of assault of his ex-girlfriend, in 2010 he was questioned for the assault of a bouncer. Reportedly Ruud isn't entirely clean either, having had girlfriends when he worked as a trainer in Chechnya.

Ruud and Estelle have two children together: daughter Joëlle (born in 1997) and son Maxim (born in 2001). Unfortunately for Ruud this will be his third divorce. 'The black tulip' (his football nickname) was previously married to Yvonne de Vries and the Italian Christina Pensa. He has daughters Felicity and Charmayne with Yvonne and son Quincy and daughter Cheyenne with Christina.
