Chelsea Clinton engaged to marry
Chelsea Clinton, daughter of ex-US President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, is engaged to marry her long-term boyfriend.

She is marrying Marc Mezvinsky, a banker at Goldman Sachs, with whom she became friends as a teenager.

A spokesman for former President Clinton confirmed that the couple got engaged over last week's Thanksgiving holiday.

Ms Clinton, 29, is attending Columbia University's School of Public Health.

The engagement was announced in an e-mail to friends.

Mr Mezvinsky's parents are Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky and Ed Mezvinsky, both of whom served in Congress.

They are described as old friends of the Clintons.

Ed Mezvinsky served a prison term for bank and wire fraud after he pleaded guilty to charges in 2002. He was released last year.

i read abt that...congrats to her. she's been out of the spotlight for a while too...smart girl.

I agree with you.

Yay for Chels!

[I <3 the Clintons. lol]

I thought this was going to be about Chelsea Handler.

part of me did too, then i remembered i watched the news last night!

Her future father in law is a former crook. Awww...just like her dad! At least the in-laws will have something to talk about!

lmao!

I'm happy for her. She faced a lot in her adolescence and young adulthood and managed to come out of it all a seemingly respectable, intelligent, strong woman.

Agreed. Can't help but wonder about the in-laws, though.

I wish Chelsea & Marc all the best...I think it's quite wise to marry someone you have been friends with & have a history with! Chelsea is a class act all the way & I hope we get to see some coverage from their wedding next summer :-)

I'll admit I cringed a little when I realized his father's history, but Chelsea has a great head on her shoulders & if she's alright with it, who are we to judge? Most people I know(even ones who are not fans of her parents politically) will comment on how Chelsea has always conducted herself in a polished, respective manner...unlike some first daughter (hint: 1 daughter in a pair of daughters!!)

Why even mention this? It's like awwww engagement...oh...:(
