Marc Jacobs To Marry/Jump On Brazilian Bandwagon With Fiancé Lorenzo Martone

Rumor has it clothing designer extraordinaire Marc Jacobs is engaged to his Brazilian ad exec boyfriend Lorenzo Martone. Lorenzo is a strategic planner at Chandelier Creative, the agency whose tagline is, “Come sparkle.” Right?

Marc and Lorenzo first came to the public’s attention as a couple in May of 2008 when they showed up on the red carpay at a NY Met gala in matching tuxedos. Lorenzo’s name was unknown at the time, but a week later, Women’s Wear Daily Fashion casually mentioned Lorenzo as Marc’s boyfriend in a piece on Valentino’s 76th birthday party.

Meanwhiles, just weeks before, Marc’s longtime on-again, off-again young boyfriend Jason Preston, (who allegedly was once “a hooker,”) had his Facebook status set to “engaged.” Everyone assumed it was to Marc. It would have been the second time. Prior to that, there was the whole confusing relationship between Marc, Jason and a porn star named Erik Rhodes. Oh and then Marc met some guy on MySpace. Basically, Marc got around as a gay man who’s famouser than god would.

But with Lorenzo, and the announcement of his nuptials on WWD, it’s like Marc is reborn into a respectable, bourgeois gay. Parabéns, you two! We can’t wait for the impending honeymoon trip to see the Brazilian family complete with pictures of Marc carrying Lorenzo’s mom’s purse. Designed by Marc, of course.
