According to unreliable Star Magazine, actress Christina Applegate, 36, is engaged to her boyfriend, Dutch bass player Martyn Lenoble, 39. Lenoble was by Applegate’s side when she battled breast cancer and made the brave decision to undergo a double mastectomy. Star reports that Lenoble proposed on Lance Bass’ boat of all places and that at first she didn’t accept but gradually came around to the idea. They quote a source which claims “he’s been asking her to marry him for months but was rejected - until now,” and that “Christina was incredibly touched by how he stepped up and took care of her.”
Martyn… first proposed in early May, just days before Christina was diagnosed.
“He opened up a bottle of [champagne], brought along a catered meal, put on some Sinatra and went for it,” the insider reveals. “Christina was overcome by his gesture, even though she wasn’t ready to say yes.”

Star reports that Applegate’s rep denies this story, so it could be premature or untrue. It would be Christina’s second marriage as her first to actor Johnathan Schaech ended in 2005 after four years. Their source claims “Christina vowed to never get married again, but then she got sick, and her illness has given her a new perspective on life.” She’s also said to be planning for children now.
Either way, congratulations are in order. Christina seems like she’s back on her feet after a very difficult ordeal and she has a supportive and loving boyfriend. She also confirms that she’s “100% cancer free” after her mastectomy.
Applegate has been confirmed as one of the presenters at this year’s Primetime Emmy Awards. She has also been nominated in the best actress in a comedy category for her ABC sitcom Samantha Who? The Primetime Emmy Awards will air September 21 on ABC.
