Actress Jennifer Esposito and tennis sensation Mark Philippoussis have got engaged. After denying any romantic involvement between them for quite a while, the pair has finally confirmed that the two are in love and are engaged to be married. The wedding is scheduled to happen in May or June next year. The 32-year old tennis ace also added that he was very excited and happy about the engagement.

Well, we really hope the new relationship wouldn’t be as disastrous as the previous ones of Mark Philippoussis. He was formerly engaged to be married to Miami hotel heiress, 18 year old Alexa Barbara, for 16 months, before they split. Apart from Alexa, Mark Philippoussis has been romantically involved with big names in Hollywood, including Paris Hilton, singer Delta Goodrem, Anna Kournikova, model Siobhan Parekh, cheerleader Amanda Salinas.

We certainly hope he has found his true match this time around in Jennifer Esposito. The grapevine says that the tennis star had also presented Alexa with an engagement ring worth – hold your breath – $200,000! We will wait and watch out for the ring Jennifer gets. For the records, the world saw much of Mark Philippoussis in the American dating show, The Age of Love.

About the Italian American 36 year old actress, Jennifer Esposito’s past relationships, she was married to actor Bradley Cooper for a blink-and-you-miss-it four months, much shorter than their courtship of eighteen months. After the split, Jennifer was rumored to be dating actor Jason Lewis of Sex and the City fame while ex-hubby Bradley got busy with Cameron Diaz. The actress’s claims to fame are her roles in TV series Spin City and Law and Order.

The pair met in the posh Hamptons in the USA where a much financially unstable Mark Philippoussis had come down to try and brighten up his career in tennis. It seems that’s not all he did. After a short and roaring romance, the two decided to get engaged. Philippoussis has been spotted surfing and having a good time in California over the past three months.
