"Supernatural" season 11 premiere is almost two weeks away and two of its stars made headlines for different reasons. Mark Sheppard got engaged to his girlfriend Sarah Louise Fudge while Misha Collins was reportedly robbed and beaten.
Sheppard's Sydney-born girlfriend took to Instagram to share aphoto of her engagement ring on Aug. 20 with a caption, "so this happened a couple of weeks ago.... #happiestgirlintheworld."
There is no official information about how, where and when Sheppard and Fudge met but the latter recently relocated to Los Angeles to be with the "Supernatural" season 11 actor, Daily Mail reported.
On the other hand, Collins was reportedly robbed and beaten by three men after dinner in Minnesota on Aug. 21. This was before he attended the "Supernatural" convention of Creation Entertainment, E! News has learned.
On Aug. 22, Saturday, Collins tweeted, "Hey guys! Thanks for all the well-wishes! Just want u to know I've just got some minor scrapes. I'm totally fine! Love u guys."
Collins and Sheppard are set to return to "Supernatural" season 11, which is set to premiere on The CW on Oct. 7, as Castiel and Crowley, respectively, along with Jared Padalecki as Sam Winchester and Jensen Ackles as Dean Winchester.
Ackles directed the first-produced episode of "Supernatural" season 11 titled "The Bad Seed" but it will not air as episode 3 and not the first episode of the new season.
"Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce" actress Emily Swallow is also set to play a recurring role, a femme fatale named Amara, in "Supernatural" season 11.
