Today's love, romance and heartbreak edition of BOP begins with grim news for fans of gay cowboys. Heath Ledger might be romancing Jake Gyllenhaal onscreen in Brokeback Mountain but it's his wife in the film who won his heart in the end. That's right, Williams is more than just Ledger's beard in the Ang Lee epic. She is also carrying his child, and the duo has announced their intention to wed. Ledger was famously dumped by Naomi Watts last May, but rebounded quickly with the Dawson's Creek star. Their relationship has been kept private for the most part, demonstrating that in some ways, Williams is quite different from her former co-star, Katie Holmes.

Speaking of happy albeit press-shy couples, things are progressing nicely for the world's most beautiful couple. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie recently adopted a child, but now rumors are flying that there will be a third member of Team MakeAnistonSuffer. The semi-reliable Sunday Mirror reports that Jolie has moved into Casa de Pitt due to her being with child. This is good news for future generations as it averts the potential disaster of the Jolie bloodline being diluted by Billy Bob Thornton genes.

Speaking of happy pregnant couples, Britney Spears and her trailer trash metrosexual, Kevin Federline, had an unexpectedly exciting time the other day. A member of the paparazzi attempted to get a money shot of the diva during her baby shower. For his trouble, one Brad Diaz wound up on the receiving end of a BB gunshot wound. Sure, it's not as bad as what happened to Marc Cohn, but there were a lot of witnesses around who supported Diaz's assertion that he was an innocent victim. For this reason, police are investigating whether some drunken kinfolk of Spears might have been trigger happy. Spears, Federline and her family are like a real life version of Hee-Haw, aren't they?

With all this good news for celebrity love, BOP feels we must restore the balance. It is our duty to report that Keira Knightley has split from her pretty boy significant other, model Jamie Dornan. The 20-year-old actress had attempted to introduce Dornan to the movie world but in the process, she accidentally made their lives such that they never had time for one another. The end of the two year relationship is reportedly taking its toll on Knightley, but BOP thinks it's nothing that a nice, long weekend with Mark Wahlberg's cousin couldn't fix.
