If her character is anything to go by, Ugly Betty star America Ferrera is doomed when it comes to finding love. But offscreen it seems she has rather more luck.

After denying engagement rumors in the past, America, whose long-term boyfriend is film-maker Ryan Piers Williams, appears to have further fueled speculation of marriage.

The 24-year-old has been spotted sporting an enviable diamond engagement ring between her scenes for the next TV series of her hit ABC show.

The low-key couple met at film school when America agreed to star in one Ryan’s student film.

The aspiring director currently works for Hollywood producer Steven Soderbergh and the happy couple live with their golden retriever called Buddy.

Meanwhile, Ugly Betty guest star Naomi Campbell laughed off a suggestion that she broke a baseball bat while filming her scenes for the hit comedy.

Asked if she had hit anyone with it, she laughed: “I don’t do that anymore.”

They’re separated in time by 500 years but there is one thing that unites Betty Suarez and Anne Boleyn (on-screen at least): their taste in bling! Both ladies sport identical “B” necklaces on Ugly Betty and in The Other Boleyn Girl. Actually, the design America Ferrera’s character sports was inspired by the style worn by the late queen in real life back in the 15th century.

I wonder if they’ll ever do a makeover for her show?
