Mary-Kate Olsen Rejected Olivier Sarkozy’s First Proposal?

Mary-Kate Olsen and Olivier SarkozyMary-Kate Olsen reportedly rejected Olivier Sarkozy's first proposal.

The 27-year-old star has sparked rumors she's engaged to her beau after she was spotted wearing a ring last week, but a friend of the couple admits the French banker, 44, popped the question months ago and the blonde beauty turned him down at the time.

"He tried about a year ago, and she wasn't ready. She didn't need to be wined and dined. She wanted to make sure he would be good to her," a source said.

The couple - who first started dating in 2012 - are also reportedly "talking about trying to get pregnant." However, the former child star won't have any problems adapting to motherhood as she is already close to Olivier's children Julien, 12, and Margot, 10, whom he has with his ex-wife Charlotte Bernard. "Mary-Kate has made him a better father. She remembers all the kids' special events. She thinks he's a great dad," a source previously said.

Mary-Kate Olsen and Olivier SarkozyMary-Kate Olsen has been shopping for an engagement ring.

The 27-year-old fashion designer and her 44-year-old beau Olivier Sarkozy - whom she has been dating for over a year - have been spotted checking out prices on marital jewellery at the Neil Lane boutique in Los Angeles on several occasions in last month, which has sparked speculation they are about to get engaged.

"Mary-Kate has been seen several times in the last three weeks checking out huge engagement rings at the Neil Lane store. She really likes cushion-cut diamonds, and all of the rings she has looked at are over five carats. She has narrowed it down, but still hasn't made a final decision," a source told The New York Post.

The blonde beauty initially had her eyes on a platinum-setting ring, but had no concerns when it came to money as it had a price tag of over $100,000 attached to it. "I don't think price was an issue," another source said.

It isn't known how much renovation they plan to do, although the plumbing and kitchen need to be completely updated.

The fashion designer has been dating Olivier - the half-brother of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy - for around four months and now the couple are set to spend a lot more time together. Olivier, 42, is buying a townhouse in New York and although they won't officially be living together, 25-year-old Mary-Kate will be there most of the time.

"They are really, really happy. And Olivier is buying a townhouse below 14th Street, to be with Mary-Kate. We are told they're not officially moving in together - they both think it's too early for that. But he's telling friends that Mary-Kate is the best thing that has happened to him in a long time," a source told The New York Post.

Mary-Kate previously dated artist Nate Lowman for over two years before splitting in 2010, while Olivier romanced actress Stella Schnabel for a year before their break-up in March. Olivier was previously married to wife Charlotte and they have two children together. Charlotte has since called the coupling "grotesque" and "not right."

The fashion designer is said to be smitten with Olivier Sarkozy - the younger half-sibling of the former French president - after romancing him for over a month. According to the New York Post, the pair are "head over heels" for one another and spent Memorial Day weekend together in the exclusive Hamptons resort near New York.

Elizabeth Olsen Rejects ‘It Girl’ Tag

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Child Stars,

Elizabeth OlsenElizabeth Olsen thinks her 'It girl' tag is an "ephemeral thing."

The Martha Marcy May Marlene actress - the younger sister of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen - explained while the term has helped her launch her career, she wants to be an "older lady" when she retires from acting.

"I always joke that the term 'It girl' is such an ephemeral thing. And I'm really tying to have a long career until I'm ready to retire as an older lady. So for me, it's really nice that it has helped me kind of start my career and I'm so thankful that it got the attention that it did. Because now I'm in such a cool position of choosing really interesting roles."

While Elizabeth admits she doesn't talk with her A-list siblings "directly about work," they do advise her on what roles she should take: "We don't really talk too directly about work. If we do, it's more just about, 'I'm having a hard time making a choice, can you help me out?' Just anything that you'd ask anyone in your family if you trust their opinions. But, really, all they've done their entire lives was work and they're really amazing workers. They're such strong women that have so many different companies to take over and run and it's just amazing to have those types of women in your family."


Ashley Olsen Won’t Act Again

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen in ElleAshley Olsen is unlikely to ever act again.

The 25-year-old star - who made her acting debut aged just nine months alongside her twin Mary-Kate in Full House - hasn't appeared in a film since 2004's New York Minute and has no plans to return in front of the camera.

"We worked non-stop until we were 18. Then we decided to take a break and go to school - and that was when we decided to question whether we would carry on in entertainment. It was time to step behind the process. I wanted to work on other things. It doesn't mean I'm not interested in Hollywood, I like the way it operates and the people who are involved and the sense of possibility. But if I ever do get back in, it's not going to be as an actress."

Though Mary-Kate has made some film and TV appearances since New York Minute - including an eight-episode stint in Weeds - she also thinks it "felt right" to step away from acting.

"It just felt right to move away," she said.

Younger Olsen Sister Making a Big Sundance Splash

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies,

Elizabeth Olsen, Sundance Film Festival

, younger sister to twin siblings Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, has gone from little sis to very talked-about actress. Olsen is in two films that will be shown at the Sundance Film Festival that are getting tons of buzz.

Olsen plays the lead in Silent House, a movie about a haunted house. She will also be featured in Martha Macy May Marlene, a film about a young woman trying to adjust to life outside the cult she’s just escaped.

“To have a lead be an unknown -- it’s kind of a risk for people to take. And so the fact that they took that risk . . . made my year, my life, I don’t know! It was really exciting.”

Olsen, 21, is three years younger than her famous twin siblings. “I think it’s a really weird part of this business,” she said of being chased by paparazzi, something she’s seen happening to Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen. “When I would go shopping with my sisters when I was younger, it would be dangerous. People would almost get us into car accidents. I just think it’s crazy in general but I want to be an actor.”
