Long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away ... a bridal shower was held.

Ariel Investments president Mellody Hobson just got engaged to her longtime boyfriend, famed director and LucasFilm chief George Lucas .

The news has been covered on almost as many planets as screened Star Wars; over 340 news outlets have covered the planned nuptials according to Google News.

Some mentions include the Hollywood Reporter, CNN, People, Huffington Post, and the Washington Post.

Hobson got to interview her beau in front of industry bigwigs this spring at an ICI conference.

Disney bought out LucasFilms in October.
