Knightley, who has kept mens’ eyes glued to the screen in features such as Pirates of the Caribbean, Domino, and A Dangerous Method, has been dating James Righton for 15 months. Righton is a member of Brit-rock act The Klaxons, and now wields the weapon of initiating jealousy wherever he goes.
Reactions from those on Twitter ranged from congratulations to disappointment:
Keira Knightley has got engaged to James Righton, eh? Such an odd couple. Ahh well, good luck!
