Less than a fortnight after tying the knot, Jamie Heaslip has taken to Instagram to lament the end of his honeymoon, but not before sharing a stunning snap of himself and his new wife, Sheena O Buachalla, at one very familiar spot in the capital city.

Looking beyond happy, the couple held hands and posed in front of the Guinness Brewery in Dublin's St James's Gate on their wedding day earlier this month, and fans are all over it.

"The honeymoon is most def over, 2 days of @irishrugby camp will do that to u!" the Leinster player wrote in a post which has clocked up thousands of likes this afternoon.

"Thanks for all the lovely messages! Cheers @cillianob for snapping this, a great driver and photographer! Who would of thought it!" he joked.

The newlyweds, who married at University Church at Stephen's Green on August 13th, were inundated with comments following Jamie's upload today.

"Congratulations from Canadian fans!" wrote one while another took inspiration from the shot and tagged a friend writing: "Looks like we need to head back to Dubz ASAP to take a pic like this."

Between his breathtaking wedding and the opening of his new bar with teammates Rob Kearney, Dave Kearney, Sean O’Brien, Jamie has had one seriously busy August.

We don't know about you, but walking up the aisle in a dress which has been described as 'full of bad memories and shattered hopes and dreams'' doesn't exactly scream 'dream wedding' to us, but maybe we're just more superstitious than most.

In a move which now has her in line to net a staggering £66,000, one Ebay user from the UK decided to auction her wedding dress after she learned that her husband of two years had been cheating on her.

In an ad which not only describes both her dress and the man she married in great detail, princess_p1988 explains that the sale of the gown will help fund her divorce.

Offering a detailed description to interested parties, she writes: "There are tiny buttons down the back but these are for decoration as it fastens with a long zip, so quite easy to get into compared to some of the monstrosities of dresses I've seen."

"As it reaches the floor, it is a little dirty around this area and so will need a dry clean before it's worn for your special day." she continued.

Adding, "I didn't have time to get it dry-cleaned myself before my cheating scumbag of a husband decided to call an end to our marriage. It cost my poor parents around £2000 brand new in 2014!"
 

"If you want a dress that is full of bad memories and shattered hopes and dreams then this is the one for you! Hope this dress brings you a lot more happiness than it brought me in the end and if not…well you can always sell it on here!"

Apologising for the lack of photos, princess_p1988 explains: "When I found out my husband was living with another woman, I pretty much burned/permanently deleted everything with his disgusting face on it!"

Not only inexplicably enthusiastic about the prospect of paying 30 times more than the original price, 75 Ebay bidders clearly have no qualms about rocking a dress associated with so many bad memories.

Ah, lads.

If classic romcoms are to be believed, women fall to pieces after a break-up and men pick themselves up and dust themselves off.

According to the movies, women drown their sorrows in gin and plot their revenge while men take it on the chin and simply make a play for the next girl.

But anyone who has endured the ups and downs of a break-up will know that this scenario is about as authentic as our tan – not at all, in other words.

And this is precisely why social media is falling all over itself today.

Reminding the public that both sexes are guilty of a little OTT regret, one Twitter user shared a screenshot of her friend's online banking app, and highlighted the lengths her pal's ex would go to for attention.
 

"Becca blocked her ex off everything and he transferred 4p into her bank with the reference 'text me please'.'" Gabriella wrote in a post which did the rounds online today before being swiftly deleted.

The tweet was, however, re-tweeted numerous times as people used this poor guy's very desperate plea as a reminder that neither gender is immune to the post-break-up madness.

4p, though? Couldn't have even swung for the price of a drink, no?!

Proposals are a touchy subject.

Some women give it very little thought while others have a strict set of guidelines which their other halves should adhere to before getting down on one knee.

From public proposals to stealing another day's limelight, men seem to have a hard time getting it right in the court of public opinion – something which the new fiancé of silver medalist He Zi has recently learned.

After coming second in the women's 3m diving, He Zi watched her boyfriend, Qin Kai, get down on one knee in front of billions before popping that all-important question, and not everyone is impressed by his timing.

"Am I the only one who would be a bit upset?" wrote one Reddit user. "I love you babe,but please don't steal the moment of Olympic glory I've busted my ass to achieve."

"Unpopular opinion: I don't think it's nice to put a lady on the spot like that, it feels like your forcing her to say "Yes"," added another.

While some argued that He Zi's boyfriend shouldn't have proposed in front of such an enormous audience and others insisted that he majorly failed on timing front, the die-hard romantics online had his back.

"She won silver, but he gave her the gold," wrote one Reddit user who we're guessing is responsible for the greetings in Valentine's Day cards.

Would you have said yes?

A day she will never forget

For years, we've heard whisperings that guys don't go for funny girls.

Whether they're intimidated by their wit or would rather sit in silence than enjoy a good belly laugh, these guys genuinely (and unfortunately) do actually exist.

But, thankfully, John Legend isn't one of them.

Opening up about his relationship with Chrissy Teigen, the All Of Me singer revealed that it was his wife's sense of humour which made him realise he was falling for her.

Like most relationships these days, the pair tested the waters by swapping texts and keeping up with each other online, and it turns out Chrissy's way with words reeled John right in.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, the singer explained: "At the beginning of our relationship, we were texting a lot and I started to see her sense of humour."

"We would talk on the phone and I started to fall in love with how engaging and witty and funny she is," he revealed.

Like her millions of online followers, John wasn't immune to Chrissy's Twitter skills, adding: "I fell in love with Chrissy over the phone, because she is good with those 140 characters."

As good a reason as any, right?!

For anyone who still harboured hopes that Zayn Malik and Perrie Edwards might one day reconcile and go through with the wedding they had intended, that hope recently died under a tattoo needle.

A year to the day of the popstar couple's shocking split, a photo of Zayn has emerged which indicates that the former 1D member has has chosen to literally erase Perrie from his life.

Having devoted much of his upper arm to a tat of the Little Mix star back in 2013, Zayn obviously decided that it was time to give it the heave-ho as his relationship with Gigi Hadid goes up a gear.

In one fairly big relationship milestone, Gigi recently handed the keys of her LA pad over to Zayn, and it looks like Zayn de-Perried himself in the process.

Eagle-eyes fans of the star's current girlfriend, Gigi Hadid, noticed the cover-up when the model shared a snap of the Bradford-native preparing dinner last night.

The Pillowtalk singer has gradually increased his collection of tattoos since hitting the big-time in 2011, but the tat of a cartoon Perrie – which he had done with Louis in the Tattooed Heart Studio in Maryland three years ago – definitely took centre-stage on his bicep.

And now, it's no more.

And with Gigi and Zayn's relationship appearing to go through some high-profile ups and down since they began dating earlier this year, die-hard Zerrie fans held out hope that not all was lost between Zayn and the Black Magic singer.

But it looks like the tat needle has spoken…

Chloë Grace Moretz is a famed fashionista and Hollywood's hottest young actress, but she is still a teenage girl with feelings. 

In her recent interview with Glamour UK, 19-year-old Chloë opened up about what life is like as Brooklyn Beckham's girlfriend.

"One of the reasons why dating him is great is that we both get what it means to have our live twisted and torn apart and faked" she explained.

The Neighbours 2 actress also mentioned the downside to dating Brooklyn (we didn't think it was possible!)

Chloë worries that she will only be known as his girlfriend, and not her for her immense talents, even though she's been acting for most of her life. 

"Seriously, you don't know how often I'm just described as 'his girlfriend'. And you think: 'well, I've also been acting for 13 years, but don't worry'."

At just 19, Chloë has achieved more success than most do in a life time. 

The young lovebirds recently attended the Teen Choice Awards, where Chloë won 'Choice Movie Actress: Comedy.'

You go girl!

When it comes to Irish weddings, there's a tried-and-tested formula which most couples tend to stick to.

The ceremony itself is a sweet, but sedate affair generally accompanied by a church organist or soloist while the reception (and the days after) signal unbridled divilment.

Turning the notion that you must stick to a paint-by-numbers routine on its head, one groom decided to forego the standard wedding march, and chose instead to SING his wife-to-be up the aisle.

In a move that has really hit Facebook users in the feels today, Charlene Casey shared footage of her baby brother serenading her new sister-in-law as she made her way up the aisle.

"My little brother sang his beautiful new wife up the aisle yesterday with their friends Ryan on guitar & Jennifer on harmony," Charlene wrote. "It was the perfect start to a memorable day."

The upload has been flooded with comments from people who can't get enough of this couple's first step into married life, with one writing: "Fair play to him. Dunno how she held it together. I'm in floods and don't even know them!!"

Ladies, prepare yourselves for this one.

While we're complete and utter suckers when it comes to romance here at SHEmazing! HQ, we also live in the real world – well, most of the time – and know that relationships are built on so much more than sweet nothings.

And yet when we consider the vows we exchanged – or plan to exchange – on our wedding day, we can't get past the fairytale sentiments and rom-com declarations.

But one woman, with a decade of married life behind her, has decided to re-write her vows in an effort to properly reflect what it means to be in a life-long partnership, and she may just be our new hero.

Bella Ellwood-Clayton, a sex and relationship writer from Melbourne, has ditched her previous flimsy promises for the renewal of her vows this December, and instead opted to share an insight into what it really takes to be part of a marriage.

In addition to promising her husband, she will "not compare our relationship to manufactured Hollywood film ideals", Bella added: "I will forgive you, endlessly. Partnerships of every kind are annoying. And long-term ones, even more so."

In a vow which will resonate with so many in relationships, she also promised: "I will not compete with you about who "works" harder. I accept that we both work hard, even though our roles and responsibilities will change over time."

And while so many of her vows do focus on the practical, Bella acknowledged the importance of encouragement and gratitude in every relationship, married or not.

"I will remember to make you feel attractive and desirable and compliment you" she promised before vowing: "I will forgive you of all the faults that you share with our children. And be forever grateful that someone in the world can put up with mine."

And we're crying.

When it comes to speeches at Irish weddings, it often looks like the lads have the market cornered.

From the father of the bride and the best man to the groom himself, us ladies often take a back seat when it comes to public speaking on our big day.

Unless you’re Ina O’Brien, that is.

Taking social media by storm this week, this stunning bride from Co. Mayo turned the notion that us ladies merely smile through the speeches on its head, and gave a rendition of Ice Ice Baby which has Facebook users falling all over themselves.

Clocking up a staggering 55,000 likes in 23 hours, Ina and her new husband, Aidan, have been inundated with congratulations from Facebook users only dying for the next instalment.

With suggestions flooding in that Ina has found her true vocation in life, the new bride responded: “lol. Think it’s a bit early to quit the day job!!!! Don't worry you can shoot my next video!!!!”

Ladies, feast your eyes.

Arriving home to a house filled with more candles than you could shake a stick at, we're not surprised this Cork woman believed her partner, Keith Stanton, when he said there'd been a power cut and he needed her help.

After enlisting the help of the Pat Fitz Band, Keith tricked his girlfriend into coming home early so he could get down on one knee and pop the question.

With the band playing I'm Yours by Jason Mraz in the couple's kitchen, Keith told Liz she was 'a fantastic mother and a fantastic partner' before asking if she'd become his wife.

Sharing the footage on their official Facebook page yesterday, Pat Fitz wrote "Keith Stanton proposed to his beautiful partner Liz this summer and asked us to be part of it. We were delighted and honoured to be part of it. Heres how it went…"

The band have been inundated with comments from social media users wishing the Cork couple well, with one writing: "Ah Liz that's fab. Fair play stangy I'm bawling after looking at that."

"Cheers here now a bawling hormonal wreck," added another. "Must not have been a candle left in Cork city"

Well, if everyone else is bawling, we may as well join in…
