Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie is enjoying her time off with her husband, actor Josh Duhamel, after being on the road eight years touring with her group the Black Eyed Peas. “We like each other. We like hanging out together and we have fun,” Fergie told MTV News. “We have fun in the kitchen cooking and singing silly songs. Not to give too much away — I’m not going any further than that — but we have a good time together, and it’s nice to get to have that quality time. We enjoy it.” Though they recently celebrated their three-year anniversary, don’t expect the Hollywood duo to make a pregnancy announcement anytime soon. “It’s not happening yet, I can tell you that definitely,” the singer says. “But we want to have a family, so that’s in the cards, but it’s just not this second.”

He lives in L.A, and she lives in London. While having a trans-Atlantic relationship is tough, if there’s anything British celebrity couple David and Victoria Beckham prove, it’s that long-distance relationships can work. Married for 12 years, they just welcomed their fourth child. Their American counterparts, Hollywood couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, have made it work too. Despite separation between films, they’ve managed to stay in a committed relationship for seven years, and they share six children.
But non-celebrities have remote relationships too. In fact, more than 3.5 million Americans were in a long-distance relationship in 2005, according to the latest statistics. With the development of new technology, that number is most likely on the rise. While us common folks can’t afford to jet set or send extravagant gifts, that doesn’t mean our long-distance relationship can’t last just as long. Use this love advice to help maintain your relationship and love like the stars:

After a battle almost as fierce as TheHunger Games itself, actress Jennifer Lawrence scored the role of Katniss for the upcoming film. During an interview with Parade magazine, Lawrence related people’s love for the Hunger Games with Kim Kardashian’s divorce. “I was watching the Kardashian girl getting divorced, and that’s a tragedy for anyone. But they’re using it for entertainment, and we’re watching it,” said the actress. “The books hold up a terrible kind of mirror: This is what our society could be like if we became desensitized to trauma and to each other’s pain.”

It’s been over a week since Bachelor, Ben Flajnik gave out the final rose and made his big proposal to Courtney Robertson. Since then, they’ve finally been able to make their first public outing together as a couple. Flajnik uploaded a picture to instagram of the two, captioning it “1st pic out in public.” They were spotted having dinner with two other guests in the North Beach neighborhood of San Francisco and an onlooker told UsMagazine.com, “She was wearing her ring and they looked cozy.” But it took a lot for the couple to get to this point, for only three months after the engagement, Flajnik dumped Robertson and was soon after accused of cheating, being spotted with three females he later referred to as just “old friends.” Hopefully that rough patch in their relationship is over, and they are able to move forward with their engagement.

My mother always told me to work on myself first, and from there, everything else will follow. Little did I know that this would become a practice for me as I became a relationship “guru” for my friends (and later, clients).
News flash ladies: If you’re having a hard time with dating and relationships, it’s not about the men. It’s not because they’re players or commitment-phobes. It’s about YOU.
I meet incredibly smart, beautiful and talented women who have completely lost themselves in relationships. When they were single, they were confident and independent. But once in a relationship, those attractive qualities dissolved and these same women became needy, insecure and emotionally broken.
It’s time to stop undermining your relationship by first working on yourself. Here are five ways to get rid of those bad habits that sabotage relationships:
