The blonde screen queen had previously said it was love at first sight when she met Axtmann for the first time at a cafe in Monaco after the Cannes Film Festival.
Playboy model and actress Tara Reid has reportedly called off her wedding. The 34-year-old blonde beauty and her fiancé Michael Axtmann were supposed to be getting married next month.
The "American Pie" star had gotten engaged to internet entrepreneur and businessman Michael Axtmann three months ago.
Reid was surprised when Axtmann proposed to her during a night out in Los Angeles. The couple was having dinner at The Little Door restaurant in Los Angeles on Jan. 18, when Axtmann asked for her hand in marriage.
Wedding is off
But it seems the actress is more of a professional party girl than a wifey.
Internet is swarmed with multiple tabloid reports that German millionaire and Reid won't get married.
According to People.com, Reid has announced that her wedding planned for next month is off.
The popular celebrity magazine’s website says that the actress/model gave no explanation for scrapping her big day, releasing only a brief statement saying: “Tara Reid has confirmed that she will not be moving forward with her May 22 nuptials.”
Couple's whirlwind romance and engagement
Ms. Reid and internet entrepreneur Michael Axtmann were betrothed back in January after having dated for several months.
Reid and Internet entrepreneur Michael Axtmann had been dating for a few months before getting engaged in January this year.
At the time a rep for the actress confirmed to People that Axtmann proposed to his sweetheart with an enormous diamond ring.
"Michael surprised Tara with a beautiful round brilliant cut ring. Tara was so happy, and the other patrons clapped and yelled out, 'Congratulations,'" the rep told the magazine.
Reid’s other flings
Reid, who is currently the cover girl of Playboy's January/February issue, was engaged to "Last Call" host Carson Daly nearly 10 years ago. She and Daly called it quits in 2001.
She was also romantically linked to football stars, Tom Brady and Jerome Bettis. However, this will be her first walk down the aisle.
The actress recently completed production on the comedy ‘Last Call’ and the psychological thriller ‘The Fields.’
Reid and Axtmann’s love at first sight
The blonde screen queen previously said it was love at first sight when she met Axtmann for the first time at a cafe in Monaco after the Cannes Film Festival. In November, reports about their engagement emerged, but she refuted those reports.
“I believe in Karma and destiny. I believe, it’s our Karma that makes us meant for each other,” she had said at the time.
