Ryan Seacrest Proposes in Paris?

According to the December 13, 2010 issue of the National Enquirer, Ryan Seacrest proposed to his girlfriend, Julianne Hough, in Paris over Thanksgiving, but now Julianne's brother, Derek Hough, is telling the press that the Burlesque star doesn't have a wedding planned for the near future. Perhaps that's why the lovebirds weren't alone in the City of Light. Ryan's father Gary, his mom, Connie, as well as his sister, Meredith, accompanied them.

People magazine says Seacrest and Hough popped into Lumas on Rue de Seine where the American Idol host, purchased a limited edition Larry Yust photograph of a Paris Metro station. Later, Seacrest's group lunched at Frederic Simonin.

The day after Thanksgiving, Seacrest and Hough braved the cold to catch the sold out Monet exhibit at the Grand Palais. Then, they hit up Christian Louboutin and left the boutique with three pairs of new shoes.

In between, the happy couple were seen shopping at Dior and kissing and cuddling on their hotel terrace. But the real question is: when and if Ryan proposes, how will he do it?

Spring over to the Grand Palais and see the famous waterlilies in the Claude Monet 1840-1926 exhibition, which opens September 22, 2010 and runs until January 24, 2011. Organized by the Réunion des Musées Nationaux and the Musée d'Orsay, this is the first major Monet retrospective in 30 years. 200 Impressionist paintings from around the world will be on display.
