I figured it was a hoax. And for anyone who comes upon something (i.e. news story) that seems a little "off"
www.snopes.com has alot of great urban legend busters, such as this one.
I did, however, read an AP story in my college newspaper that had a blurb about Aaron and Helene saying that they're taking things slow. At that press time they had only seen each other 4 times since the shows end. I was shocked at first, but perhaps they had to sign an agreement that they wouldn't see eachother while the show was still airing?
