Ghost Whisperer star Jennifer Love Hewitt cannot catch a break! First there were the tabloids heckling her weight, then there were break-up rumors regarding her current boyfriend, actor/comedian Jamie Kennedy.

Never one to let the gossip slip past her unnoticed, Hewitt is speaking out to defend her relationship.

“I’m not going to lie—it’s not annoying, it’s hurtful… It’s really hurtful that people say that because he is like the most awesome person.”

Well said, Hewitt.

The actress continued to laud her boyfriend (and co-star) of 8 months: “I really hate that people would make it seem like he’s not really a good guy, and not treating me well. He treats me very well.”

And Jamie? “I am lucky to be with her. And I love her very much.” Sounds like love is still in the air! Eight months is fairly impressive for celebrity standards, after all.
