It had all the potential to be the one Australian wedding greater than Scott and Charlene's nuptials on Neighbours.
But those waiting with bated breath to hear a confirmation that Shane Warne has proposed to Liz Hurley will be sorely disappointed.
A spokeswoman for Warne's manager, James Erskine, denied a report in yesterday's Daily Star newspaper that the former international cricketer popped the question during a Spanish cruise.
"It's not true, it's just rumours," the spokeswoman said.
The couple have been reported to be engaged several times this year after getting together in December.
The pair, who let their relationship play out on Twitter, stayed silent on the subject and did nothing to quash the latest rumour in recent days.

The last thing the model/actress tweeted about was her ex-boyfriend Hugh Grant, warning people not to follow fake versions of the Notting Hill actor on Twitter.
Warne appeared to be dropping a few hints, saying he and Hurley were very happy together.
"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away," he wrote two days ago.
That inspirational gem was soon followed by: "Isn't it strange how some days you just wake up happy & some days grumpy - with same hrs sleep I'm excited & looking forward to a great day."
