Don't count John Edwards and Rielle Hunter among the slew of famous couples prepping to wed.

Despite a report in the National Enquirer, "John Edwards says the reports are false and he is not engaged," a family spokesperson tells UsMagazine.com.

Politician Edwards, 57, and videographer Hunter, 46, are parents to daughter Frances Quinn, who turns 3 next month.

Their involvement came to light during Edwards' failed bid for the Democratic Presidential nomination in 2007.

    My theory is they were/are secretly engaged & wanted to see how the public reacted to the news...of course no one's gonna celebrate this mess, so they recanted the engagement news.

    Wait...he said he wasn't engaged to her, but what about dating her...are these 2 together now that Elizabeth has passes? I would have thought that he would have denied any involvement with Hunter...if he wasn't actually involved with her...which he probably is. Does he not care what his children think of him?

    It sickins me to know this sorry excuse of a human tried to become our president. He has no morals or understanding of human life....let alone run our country.

    His wife was sick with cancer, and this philandering peice of dirt got that ugly loser knocked up. May Elizabeth Rest in peace, and may John Edwards never have a days peace.

    Wouldn't put it past these disgusting individuals to become engaged and attempt to ride off into the sunset.
