The two celebrities have had a rather rough patch in their relationship ever since news got out that Hugh's former flame, the beautiful Elizabeth Hurley, still keeps in contact with him and never passes on an opportunity of overtly flirting with him.

Enraged by the allegations that the Grant-Khan relationship is on the rocks, close friends of the couple came up front and told the press that they are actually secretly engaged and that they're planning a fairy tale wedding in 2008.

Sources claim that Hugh cannot make a serious commitment earlier than that, because he is too busy with his acting schedule. But it seems that all is being prepared as we speak, as the actor and his socialite girlfriend have already contracted Nick Ede, the celebrity 'life stylist', to work on the wedding ceremony and make it the most beautiful ever.

'Everyone is thrilled for them. But Hugh and Jemima are not a typical celebrity couple and want to keep their wedding plans private. Their romance has not been conducted in the public eye and they intend to keep it that way.', one friend said.

It seems that Hugh and Jemima are still going on with the secrecy things because, according to the same friend, they are not yet willing to make their engagement public. Jemima is always making sure she never wears the sapphire and diamond ring, which she received during a romantic escapade in Barbados, when going out, claims the source.
