Marcia is Amused.

Old timey scandal! Back in 2009, there was a very popular, very pretty tumblr user named Tara Michelle. She developed a romantic relationship with another tumblr, ChrisReinhard, and everyone knew her and had interacted with her (it felt like a really small community back then!) and… It was all a fake. Some girl had taken facebook photos of an acquaintance and created this whole personality. Everyone was shocked. (Here’s the post from her boyfriend about discovering the hoax.) But… The girl who was in the photos? Ended up marrying Jack Osbourne.
