In a shocking turn of events, sources close to the Astor camp confirm that the notorious bachelor has officially taken himself off the market. Tristan Astor, CEO of Astor Sovereign Estates, is reportedly engaged to small-town sweetheart Kinsley Bloom.
The alleged lovebirds were spotted enjoying a romantic dinner at Chez Pierre, one of the city's most exclusive restaurants. Onlookers describe the couple as "absolutely adorable" and "totally smitten."
But don't be fooled - insiders whisper that this whirlwind romance may be more fabricated than factual. Is Tristan's engagement a clever PR stunt, or has the billionaire bad boy truly found love? Only time will tell."

Rich People Problems
As much as Kimberly Astor hated to admit it, she had a slight problem. Okay, so it was theoretically a major problem, but it wasn't entirely her fault. Okay, so it was her fault, (at least to a certain extent, according to her) but her dad didn't need to be all rude about it. He especially did not need to threaten her future role as CEO on it too. And, setting up an arranged marriage to fix said 'problem' is so out of proportion. Okay, it wasn't completely out of proportion, but still. Jace Kingston didn't know what he was getting into when he agreed to be married to a 'problematic heiress'. He certainly was not expecting a sexy vixen, who was hellbent on getting on his nerves and destroying the semblance of normalcy he established in his complex life. So, when the two come together to form a business alliance, they make a simple plan. 1. Fix the problem. 2. Don't ever bring up personal things. 3. Get out. Too bad breaking the second rule is making the third rule look a lot more... difficult.
