It looks like just because you’re a famous celebrity blogger, it doesn’t guarantee that you’ll find love—at least that is what Perez Hilton is claiming.

The gossip blogger recently announced that he would be joining Match.com in order to try and find himself a man that met his standards, and he announced his new adventure on Twitter.

‘Lovely Day’ Musician Donavon Frankenreiter

Helps San Fernando Valley Couple Get Engaged

At Rock & Roll Engagement Party

On October 28, Robbins Brothers, The Engagement Ring Store hosted a cocktail party for recently engaged couples in the heart of Tinsletown at the new W Hollywood hotel. The evening was complete with champagne, appetizers, a Robbins Brothers Diamond Spa to clean guests’ engagement rings and showcase the latest bridal and fashion jewelry, and a special performance by pro surfer and “Lovely Day” musician Donavon Frankenreiter.

The highlight of the night was when Kyle White 26, an events production manager from Chatsworth, CA, surprised his girlfriend of three years Juliet Arpaia 21, with a marriage proposal onstage just before Donavon’s performance. Kyle told Juliet they won free VIP tickets to the concert. Donavon pretended that Kyle won a free surf lesson and asked him to come on stage with his guest to accept the prize. That’s when Kyle dropped to bended knee to ask Juliet to spend forever with him. She said ‘yes’ and the audience applauded with great enthusiasm while and joyful tears.

Another touching layer to this love story is the heartfelt relationship between Kyle and his mother, Valerie Kane, who has struggled with stage 3 breast cancer for the past year. After receiving a letter from Valerie asking for their support, Robbins Brothers graciously donated an engagement ring to the young couple. Both Valerie and Juliet’s mom, Angelica, knew about the surprise and were in attendance to celebrate with their newly-engaged offspring.

“Robbins Brothers exceeded my expectations and I’ll forever be grateful,” said Valerie. “At the least I was hoping to get a discount on a ring since Kyle & Juliet have been taking care of me over the past year and needed some financial help.”

“The whole night was magical and I’m still in shock,” said Kyle. “I’ve always known that I wanted my proposal to be special but never dreamed of anything like this. Everyone was so helpful and made me feel comfortable and heroic. Special thanks to Donavon and Robbins Brothers for everything! Juliet and I can’t stop smiling about it.”

One source is referring to Elin and Tiger Woods the “married divorced couple” and with the pair’s decision to move back in together to help “rebuild his image” it seems that this nomenclature may actually make sense. There’s nothing wrong with taking some time apart after something as painful as infidelity, in fact it’s something I suggest and call a “brush with death:” an idea I explain in the book Make up Don’t Break up as an intentioned break up with the idea of continuing to work toward a healthy solution – when two people still want to be together, but have major obstacles to overcome. A temporary break up can help resolve certain issues, and creates a shake-up that many couples need. In certain circumstances, this is the only thing that will create an action step which will make reconnecting and making up easier to do. But – the brush with death is only potent if done for a long enough period of time – it’s possible they may need more time apart to appreciate their relationship

Elin and Tiger spent time apart, but did they spend enough time to successfully achieve the desired affects of a brush with death? Of course it’s impossible to know a couple’s true circumstances and motivation but my concern is that Tiger is motivated by a public perception that wants to see him picking up the pieces and he may not have taken the sufficient steps to make the relationship work with the one person that really matters in this equation: his wife.

The source quoted in People magazine says: “The marriage is all smoke and mirrors, but Elin will help Tiger rebuild his image and gain new sponsorships because this is what his life is all about … She is doing this more for the kids and holding the family together then anything else.”

People in situations similar to Elin’s typically need something to pour themselves into after such a catastrophe and it’s not uncommon to put even more effort into one’s family. But without properly working through the root causes of each issue, all the family focus or “brushes with death” in the world won’t be enough to put lives back together. Is there a way to know when you’re ready to move forward with a relationship after something so painful? There isn’t one easy answer to that question but I believe healing can begin to start between a couple when it’s started individually.

I encourage people in this situation to use “Smart Heart” skills and dialogue to cure the Bio Chemical Craving for Connection – this creates a safe place of communication where each partner can be honest about their  shortcomings and fears.  Divorces occur as people do not have the tools to cure this disease, it is treatable/curable and forgivable when treated properly.
