Jessica Biel Brandishes New Engagement Ring

Jessica Biel showed off what appeared to be her engagement ring during a “Saturday Night Live” after party in New York, according to a report by People.

This may have been the  first time the 29-year-old actress has allowed the public to see her wearing the ring since she got engaged to her long-term boyfriend, 31-year-old Justin Timberlake, over the Christmas holidays, according to the report.

Biel and Timberlake were “very lovey all night and kissed a few times” during a party Saturday at Ristorante Asellina, a source told the magazine.

Bridesmaids star Kristen Wiig and Parks and Recreation actress Amy Poehler, who also attended the party, “loved the ring and chatted [Biel] up about it,” the source added.

Timberlake and Biel have maintained an on and off relationship for about four and a half years. The couple split up in March 2011 amid rumors that Timberlake, a six-time Grammy winner, cheated on Biel with actress Olivia Munn.

However, they reconciled a few months later, and Timberlake reportedly proposed in late December during a trip to Wyoming.

Jessica Biel recently appeared in Wayne Rice’s romance comedy New Years Eve and stars in a number of films hitting theaters this year including Tall Man, Total Recall, The Playing Field, and The Devil and The Deep Blue Sea.

 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
