I kind of thought this had already happened, but I guess not. Guy Ritchie is engaged! He proposed to his baby-mama Jacqui Ainsley at some point, and she’s showing off her ring these days – you can see it here. Guy and Jacqui have been dating since 2010, although I always thought that actual start-date of their relationship was fudged because Jacqui got pregnant so quickly and Guy wanted to make it look like he didn’t just knock up some broad that he barely knew. Jacqui is super-fertile too (sidenote: I loathe the word “fecund”). Jacqui gave birth to Guy’s third son Rafael last September, and by this summer, Jacqui was already showing off a second baby bump at the UK premiere of The Dark Knight Rises.
Guy Ritchie popped the question — and she said yes! The 44-year-old British director is engaged his longtime girlfriend Jacqui Ainsley, a source confirms to Us Weekly.
Ainsley, 30, showed off her diamond ring during a dinner date Sunday at Madeo restaurant in Los Angeles. The pregnant model flaunted her growing baby bump, and what appears to be a huge round-cut sparkler.
In July, Ainsley revealed she and Ritchie were expecting their second child together by proudly showing off her baby bump on the red carpet of The Dark Knight Rises London premiere. The couple welcomed their first child together, son Rafael, on Sept. 5 of last year.
Ritchie has been dating Ainsley since April 2010. He split from Madonna after eight years of marriage in 2008, and the exes share a biological son, Rocco, and an adopted son, David.
“I enjoyed my first marriage. It’s definitely not something I regret. The experience was ultimately very positive,” the Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows director told the December/January issue of Details. “I love the kids that came out of it, and I could see no other route to take.”
“But you move on, don’t you?” Ritchie added. “You’re right, I stepped into a soap opera, and I lived in it for quite a long period of my life. I’ll probably be more eloquent on it 10 years from now.”
I know I should give Guy a hard time for acting like an a—hole about his divorce from Madonna, but… I really can’t. He stuck by Madonna for a long time, and I think he just felt overwhelming relief when his marriage was over. But Madonna did something strange to him – she domesticated him. And so, like so many men, Guy plunged into another serious relationship very quickly and now he’s engaged again and expecting his second child with Jacqui. Now, do you think Madonna sheds any tears over this? Eh. I think Guy and Madonna have very complicated feelings for and about each other. It’s more complicated than “Madonna hates the new girl” or “Guy loathes everything Madonna.” Give them SOME credit. Anyway, congrats to Guy and Jacqui. (Doesn’t it seem like she’s always super-happy whenever cameras are around?)

Wow. Beautiful girl.
what did he do that made him an a-hole about his divorce? not the comments right, cause I see no problems with that, Madonna is drama-that’s what she prefers I think..
and what’s up with the head tilt of the fiancee, it screams “look at me”
The “belly cradling” also screams “Look at me”. It’s like she’s practicing the lessons she learned in Red Carpet 101 class.
I agree.
She’s beautiful, but that ‘hand under the baby bump’ pose is just so smug. It annoys me when ‘celebs’ act as though getting knocked up were some sort of major achievement, instead of a mundane biological function.
Oh, and how is Rafael Guy’s ‘third son’? I thought he just had one son with Madonna, and now another with this woman?
@Christina – Guy also adopted David with Madonna. So his three sons are Rocco, David and Rafael.
Her poses remind me of Courtney Stodden’s.
She looks younger (immature?) because of her pose-hard tactics. A little Courtney Stodden indeed. And her head is tilted so far back in photo #3, it looks like it’s going to roll off! Tone it down a bit, girl. You look fine.
Relieved that I’m not the only one who was thinking that. Pose, repose, re-pose, I don’t know what I’m seeing.
Considering he was divorcing Madonna, he gets a lot of leeway from me in what he says, as I’m sure she’s a nightmare!
So he and this woman have been together 2 years and are already on baby #2? Wow.
…and when does two years qualify as “longtime”? Is this Hollywood dog years?
He took 90 million dollars of Madonna’s money after saying he wouldn’t go after her money. He made some douche comments and gave some nice remarks too. He’s on odd bird. Both of them were no day at the beach I would imagine. The song she wrote Love Spent is telling. She felt used for her money, but in another song called him her best friend she admired. I think their feelings will always be complicated about each other.
I always thought this was a cute behind the scenes of them making Swept Away.

I am not a big Madonna fan, although I think some of her music, even though it was pop music was highly artistic. Can’t say the same about his movies. He always strikes me as not being very bright, and yes he got stinking rich from divorcing his ex and now is dating a much younger chick. I always thought of him as …. useless, sorry.
Yeah. The lyrics are telling in the song she wrote after the divorce.
You had all of me, you wanted more
Would you have married me if I were poor
Yes, if I was your treasury
You’d have found a time to treasure me
How come you can’t see
All that you need
Is right here with me
Up until the end
All this pretend
Wasn’t for free
Hold me like your money
Tell me that you want me
Spend your love on me
Spend your love on me
Now you have your money
Spend it til there’s nothing
Spend your love on me
Spend your love on me
If we opened up a joint account
Would it put an end to all your doubt
Frankly if my name was Benjamin
We wouldn’t be in the mess we’re in
You played with my heart
Till death do we part
That’s what you said
Now you have your fast cars
Women and bars
It’s gone to your head
Hold me like your money
Tell me that you want me
Spend your love on me
Spend your love on me
Love me like your money
Spend it til there’s nothing
Spend your love on me
Spend your love on me
I want you to take me
Like you took your money
Take me in your arms
Until your last breath
I want you to hold me
Like you hold your money
Hold on to it
Till there’s nothing left
Love spent
Feeling love spent
Yeah, I’m love spent
Wondering where the love went
Love spent
Yeah I’m love spent
Really love spent
Wondering where it all went
He always seemed like a good father to me. Doting on the kids from Lourdes on down. Two Christmases ago, Madge and all the kids (including Mercy James) spent the holiday with Guy, so I think he does try to be a good father.
I think this one has never met a camera she didn’t like. He should have ran when he had the chance. I can just imagine what’s going to happen when they break up. Smh.
They won’t break up, She had a moderate career before him in modeling and knows she hit the mother lode getting a movie director. She stated when she first started dating him she wants lots of kids. She will be a stay-at-home wife/mommy and not demand much of him I think. His macho ways can continue. Guy loves his pubs (especially his own pub) and drinking late nights with the boys and he has the little woman to come home to. but I guarantee you he has an ironclad prenup protecting his big money from Madonna and his own millions from the new wife.
Good to know. I just get mega gold digger/ famewhore vibes from her.
I’m getting Pataky vibes from the missus. She needs to up her game if it took her until the second pregnancy to secure the ring.
Not that I’m a cynical b-tch.
I what world does dating since 2010 (this is 2012) make someone a “longtime girlfriend”?
I hope they can make a good marriage and be good parents, but d*mn! she sure worked fast! Guy Ritchie probably wasn’t thinking about birth control, coming off of an eight year marriage to Madonna. Girl tagged it and bagged it!
Yeah, shes showing off waaaay too much. That head tilt Is not cute. I can just feel that she hurried up and got pregnant to secure a future with him.
Doesn’t he give a bit of a miserable vibe with the low shoulders and close expression? Maybe is just the contrast with the happy puppy expression of his fiancé…too much.
That girl is loooving the attention, isn’t she.
Kinda lost respect for this guy when he asked for a huge settlement from his divorce with Madonna.
This woman loves to be photographed – heh. He seems to have a thing for ladies who love the camera.
This man was married to Madonna,and we know she has one of the hugest ego of all time, I don’t think it was an easy relationship, and his comments don’t bother me that much. Calsey Grammes says douchey things, not Guy Ritchie.
They are both douchy. At least Kelsey’s douchyness is coming from an emotive place meaning, with therapy, it could be removed. Guy outright tried to dominate Madonna from day one, always insisting that she be the ‘little woman’, tailend of the marriage he compared sex with her as ‘going to bed with gristle’ and post marriage when asked directly about the best thing to come from the marriage, he said ‘the money!’ That is cold, cold cold and a man who suffers from major ego problems. Madonna is no picnic but Guy is a major, major, douche and for once I felt so sorry for her bEcause he just used her and now he can go ahead and live the life he has always wanted….
LAK, I’m going to disagree with you. Not that Ritchie can be a jerk, but that Kelsey Grammer can be fixed.
Ritchie might be a jerk, but at least he appears to be an honest one. Can’t say that about Grammer.
Guy is one of those macho quys. He called Madonna Mrs. Ritchie all the time, like pounding on his chest she was the little missus, and she played up to that. Plus, I think the guy drinks at lot at pubs. I still remember the night on her tour she went with him to his pub and he sat there singing Irish songs with his buddies, drunk as a skunk, refusing to go home and Madonna sleeping on the bench in the pub, waiting for him. LOL When her own brother, who dissed Madonna, said being married to Guy was rough and Madonna tried her best in a difficult marrige, I believe him, since he pulled no punches about Madonna and I believe she was in her forties and really wanted to be married. Madonna said in one of her songs she diminshed herself to be what he wanted, I believe she did for quite a while, and it didn’t work. He married a strong and powerful woman and it would be hard for any man in his position as far as ego is concerned, especially when he was putting out crap movies back to back. He has what is better for him, a much younger, meek woman that won’t challenge him, but I think that’s better for Guy. She’s seems nice enough and a good stepmother to his two boys.
Madonna I don’t think will ever find love in a powerful man she can look up to. She’s far, far too driven and powerful and loaded down with four kids, and she’s 54. Men want the young ones.
Let’s face it, neither Guy nor Madonna were easy to married to for different reasons. I wouldn’t want to be married to either one. But at least she wrote some beautiful folk ballads when they were in love that are my favorites of her. Nothing Fails and Intervention.
@Jayna – I love those songs, too.
Regarding Guy’s doucheyness, don’t forget that when he met Madonna, he was still dating the model Tania Strecker. Strecker claims that it took Guy a long time to break it off with her for good – in fact, he was still seeing both women while Madonna was pregnant with Rocco. When he finally dumped Strecker, she claims Guy told her: “I love you. But she’s Madonna.”
Tania Strecker went on to date Robbie Williams and Robbie wrote the song “She’s Madonna” about the Guy/Tania/Madonna triangle.
So yes, I believe Guy was mostly interested in Madonna’s money and status. If she hadn’t been Madonna, the huge superstar, he never would have married her.
she’s some kind of model and he deserves to live his life.
he did his time w/Madge, its over.
He looks happy, good for him.
Madonna stole his accent, LOL!
she is a knockout!!!
Is she showing off her belly ring or her engagement ring in that pic? *retracts claws*
I wish him happiness, because Lord knows that after all those years with Madonna, the man deserves it. Plus, he makes some damn entertaining movies (according to Hubs)!
Celebrities make a lot of babies, huh?
