Reese Witherspoon and boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal were on their way into the Staples Center in Los Angeles yesterday to watch the Lakers play. I just love these two together - makes complete sense if you ask me. Both parties are so down to Earth and not affected by Hollywood. 

Reese has two movies coming up between now and 2010. One she is just lending her voice to - Monsters vs. Aliens - and the other is an Untitled Cameron Crow project alongside funnyman Ben Stiller. I can't wait to learn more about the latter!! Both actors are great comedians! 

Jake has been a tad bit busier.

Jake Gyllenhaal has proposed to Reese Witherspoon three times now, but three times isn't a charm, since she's said no to every once of his proposals. But, he's finally tiring of asking.

The 27-year-old New Yorker first popped the question — with a diamond ring, even — on March 22, Reese's 32nd birthday. He tried again in July and mid-October when she visited him in London, where he's been filming Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. The next time, Reese will have to do the asking.

Poor Jake!

Jake feels he's found the love of his life, and he can't understand why Reese won't take that step with him.

I think it's different for Jake going into marriage for the first time than it is for Reese who's loved and been burned in the past.  Maybe after the first time around you're a bit more skeptical.

Gwyneth Paltrow, Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal were each spotted leaving a Thanksgiving party thrown by Richard Rogers at his Chelsea home in London. Looks like the trio spent Thanksgiving together on the other side of the pond.

I thought Gwyneth said she was taking care of the cooking for all of her ex-patriot pals? Guess it didn't work out.

After rumors that Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are buying property together in England, the cute couple was spotted out and about doing a little lingerie shopping in London.  Maybe that's why Jake has such a big grin on his face. :)

They both look so happy!  I know a lot of people had their doubts about this romance when it first began, but those smiles really look like geniune love to me.

Madonna and Gwyneth did it first and now it seems everyone wants a piece of the U.K. pie.  Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are reportedly house hunting in London.  Jake is currently filming Prince of Persia: Sands of Time over there so maybe that's the reason behind the possible move.

For Reese though, the biggest priority is the safety of her children. A real estate agency in London says,

"Reese was extremely concerned about security issues. She seemed to particularly like places where they could enter and exit not directly onto the street. That's not always an easy thing in Central London, especially Mayfair. But we were able to come up with a couple of places both she and Jake seemed to like." 

All bets are off. Reps for both Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon have denied that the couple will be walking down the aisle any time soon.

"They are not engaged, getting married or any of the reports," the reps tell PEOPLE exclusively, calling the reports "lies."

That's too bad because I LOVE these two together. But even if they were engaged, I doubt Jake and Reese would be very public about it, so maybe there's hope for a white wedding yet. :)

*I had updated the original story yesterday but I wanted to post to make sure that if you didn't go back and see that you're all caught up on the news. 

A winter wedding? How magical! Rumor has it that after Jake Gyllenhaal wraps up his current movie, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, he will marry Reese Witherspoon on Christmas. 

A source on the movie’s Morocco set tells British newspaper The Mail on Sunday, "Jake is telling everyone they are getting married at Christmas. "He told me he had proposed several times but she kept telling him she wanted to give their relationship more time. "When he asked her again a couple of weeks ago, she finally said yes."

While I can't see Jake blurting out this news to the craft service table, I do think they are on the path to marital bliss. Whether or not it will happen this year is another story. Only time (or a rep denial) will tell.

The couple met in 2006 on the set of their thriller Rendition.

UPDATE: Rep denial!!

"They are not engaged, getting married or any of the reports," the reps tell PEOPLE exclusively, calling the reports "lies." 

What a gorgeous night in Paris.

Jake Gyllenhaal, Reese Witherspoon and her daughter Ava were photographed dining at Andre's and later watching the Bastille Day fireworks at the Eiffel Tower in Paris. They are an very cute couple and I'm glad things seem to be working for them. The picture of Jake and Ava is really sweet as well...

There seems to be a lot going on in Europe this summer, because we've seen so many celebs hanging out on the old continent lately! Reese Witherspoon looked ultra chic while walking around Paris, while Vince Vaughn went the more casual route as he was spotted biking in Venice.

UPDATE: Reese met up with Jake Gyllenhaal after strolling along. I've added his shots to the picture gallery below. Click on each thumbnail to enlarge.  And Vince is actually in Venice Beach, not Venice Italy.  Thanks guys. :)

I'm curious...has Reese Witherspoon's shorter do grown on people who started out not liking it? It ages her a bit, but is that such a bad thing? She looks like a woman now instead of a young girl. Perhaps in Hollywood that means different things, but I think Reese looks great.

Here she is with Jake Gyllenhaal enjoying a date night at Scott's Seafood in London. The couple left the restaurant around midnight.
