Notebook’ co-stars turned real-life lovers, Ryan Gosling and Rachel ocAdams, look set to leave behind their “touchy” reconciliation period with a re-engagement. After an uncertain patch in which they were unsure of their relationship, it seems they are ready to “make things permanent”, an insider reveals. “Ryan didn’t have to re-propose. He and Rachel just agreed it was time to think about getting married again. Ryan says he’s thrilled that Rachel is wearing her engagement ring again.” The insider also says the lovebirds aren’t interested in a high-profile wedding: “Starting a family and sharing their lives together is so much more important to them than which magazine they can sell their wedding pictures to”.
