Man Marries Instagram Girlfriend After Meeting For The First Time A New York man proposed to his long distance boo from Instagram after meeting her for the first time at an airport. The romantic man says you don’t drag your feet when it comes to love according to CBS Local reports: In a gamble for true #love, Erica Harris married a man just seconds after they met for the first time at an airport in California, after the two randomly connected a year ago on Instagram. The long-distance relationship between Harris and her new husband, Arte Vann, grew with love poems and songs over social media. The two lived across the country from each other, with Harris in California and Vann in New York. When they met at the Ontario International Airport for the first time on Friday, Vann got straight to the point. He proposed immediately to the woman he had only seen in photos and videos from their budding online romance. The two met in March last year after Vann posted a poem with the hashtag #7deadlysins, where Harris commented, “you had me at lust.” The two had used the same hashtags for the poetry and writing community on Instagram when the chance encounter happened. New year, new boo! IG

Antonio And Terricka Cromartie Expecting Twins NY Jets’ cornerback Antonio Cromartie and his wife Terricka are expecting twins!

Via UsWeekly : Biggest surprise ever! Terricka Cromartie is pregnant and expecting twins with her husband, Antonio Cromartie, the couple exclusively confirm to Us Weekly. The news came as a shock to the pair because the New York Jets cornerback previously had a vasectomy. Terricka learned she was pregnant last October when she went to the emergency room because she was having bad cramps. “I really thought I was dreaming, even after, I was just in total disbelief,” she tells Us. “I didn’t even tell Antonio right away because I didn’t think it was possible,” she adds. “I was going back and forth in my head how it could even happen. In my head we were good to go, we were having free sex! I just really thought that his procedure was the best protection you could have at this point.” Antonio, 31, was just as shocked. “Originally, he was like, ‘Oh, s–t! Are you serious? How did this happen?’” Terricka recalls. “It was shocking news for the both of us. It took me a while to process it, but Antonio stood firm and was saying, ‘It’s God’s will.’ And he’s been excited the whole time.” Congrats to the happy couple!

Bowls And Bowls Of Cigarettes At Mary-Kate Olsen’s Wedding To 46-Year-Old French Banker This sounds pretty ridiculous — and not because of the 17 year age difference. But congrats to Michelle Tanner — well half of her anyway! According to Page Six reports : The 29-year-old former child actress tied the knot with her French banker beau of three years, Olivier Sarkozy, 46, at an intimate Manhattan ceremony on Friday night, a source said. The reception was held at a private residence on 49th Street, between Second and Third avenues; cocktails were served in a rear garden before the 50 guests dined indoors. Attendees were required to turn in their cellphones beforehand. Party decor consisted of “bowls and bowls filled with cigarettes, and everyone smoked the whole night,” the source said. The couple became engaged in 2014 and live in New York. Mary-Kate and her twin sister, Ashley, rose to fame on the ’90s sitcom “Full House” and now own two fashion labels, The Row and Elizabeth and James. Sounds pretty disgusting. Sorry but we’re not fans of smoking. Hit the flip for a look at Mary-Kate and her new stepdaughter — who is bigger than her already! SplashNews
