October was a huge month for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who made their first official public appearance as a couple during the Invictus Games in Toronto in late September. On Oct. 3, Us Weekly reported that friends of the loved-up duo believe they're already secretly engaged. "I think it's already happened but they're holding the news back until she has finished on 'Suits,'" a pal told the magazine. "I've never seen them happier. It's amazing." Speaking of "Suits," in mid-October the Daily Star reported that the actress-philanthropist told producers of the hit legal drama that she would not be returning for the eighth season. "Meghan loved playing Rachel and feels she owes so much to 'Suits,' but Harry can't move to Toronto, so she'll have to move eventually if they want to be together," said a source. "Meghan knows she can't really act at the same time as being a princess and is happy to make this career sacrifice. … She really enjoys her charity work with UNICEF and will broaden out her charity commitments when she becomes a full-time royal." (The Daily Star also reported that Harry and Meghan are looking for their first home in the Cotswolds.) Then on Oct. 28, the Daily Mail reported that Meghan finally met Queen Elizabeth II over tea with Harry at Buckingham Palace.

(He was arrested for drug possession in 2011.) "Christina encouraged him to go back to rehab," a source told the tabloid. "Christina is the type of person who sees the best side of others, and that's how she was with Doug. Caring about someone does not save someone and Christina knows that. She just wanted to help him."
Brooke Shields confirmed on an Oct. 3 episode of "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen" that Donald Trump once asked her out. "He called me. I was on location doing a movie, and he called me right after he had gotten a divorce [from Marla Maples]," she recalled.

The rumor mill has been working overtime to connect Bella Hadid and Drake. Us Weekly reported on Oct. 9 that the rapper planned and paid for the model's 21st birthday party, and Life & Style reported on Oct. 18 that the duo have actually been seeing each other since June. According to a L&S source, Bella has "fallen even harder" for Drake since he threw her birthday bash. Added the source, "[It] started out casual, but they're definitely serious [now]. They've been meeting up and going out for romantic dinners." But Bella's mom, Yolanda Hadid, denied the dating rumors during an appearance on "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen." When the host asked about Drake planning her daughter's party, the reality TV star replied, "He did, really? I didn't know that. … They're friends." Several other media outlets have also shot down the rumors.
In early October, there were rumblings that Shakira and longtime love Gerard Pique had called it quits. "It's something serious and she has been the one who has finally made the decision," a source told Spanish gossip site Cotilleo as part of a story that went live on Oct. 6. The site added that the parents of two were no longer living together and that the singer "could no longer cope with the situation." But Shakira's publicist denied breakup reports: "Everything is the same," the rep told HOLA! Gerard poured more cold water on the breakup rumors when he took to Instagram to share a video of himself visiting Shakira during rehearsals for her upcoming tour. Then on Oct. 12, Us Weekly published a photo of the couple packing on the PDA near their home in Barcelona on Oct. 10. So much for that!
Chris Evans and Jenny Slate fueled rumors they'd rekindled their romance when they stepped out for dinner in Atlanta, where he's shooting the next installment in the "Avengers" franchise, on Oct. 13 and then again the very next day as half of a double date with Robert Downey Jr. and his wife. "They seemed like a couple," an eyewitness told Us Weekly of the onetime lovers, who called it quits in February after around nine months as a couple. "[They were] laughing. He reached across and touched her arm a couple of times. They seemed like normal people on a date." But a People magazine source implied that a full reconciliation may not in the cards for Jenny and her former beau: "Chris has been seen with various women in Atlanta during filming," said the snitch.

"She was kind, exciting and fun," he said of the diva. "Mariah is a woman of substance. She is very bright. But it was a mistake for her and a mistake for me." He also dished on the end of his second marriage: "It is my biggest regret that I let my marriage to Erica fail," he said.
In Touch reported on Oct. 19 that Kris Jenner and her boyfriend of three years, Corey Gamble, are on the brink of a breakup. "Kris is ready to call it quits with Corey," a source told the tabloid.
