Despite reports that Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith are on the rocks after 15 years of marriage, a source close to the couple says it's simply not true!
The hot Hollywood couple have been married for of 15 years, but rumors started swirling when Banderas was caught getting cosy with a blonde at a night club in Cancun while promoting a film. He was also caught on video dancing very close with actress Mallika Sherawat, during a Cannes Film Festival party this year.
But a source tells People mag: "They seem absolutely fine. Honestly, they seem happy."
Adding fuel to the fire, Griffith was pictured sans wedding ring recently, and she's also attended several events solo within the last few months.
Another source close to the couple says Banderas "is in Budapest filming and they'll be together again as soon as he's done. They really are very happy together."
In September 2011, the actor confessed to AARP The Magazine he and Griffith "have had as many problems as anybody," and that their marriage "isn't perfect."
The couple first met in 1995 on the set of Two Much.

A gunman opened fire during a midnight screening of The Dark Knight Rises at a Aurora, Colorado theater killing at least 12 moviegoers and injuring more than 50.
As a result of the tragedy, the Paris premiere of the film has been canceled.
The shooter, identified as 24-year-old James Holmes, reportedly busted into one of the theaters through the exit door wearing a bullet proof vest and gas mask. After setting off a gas-like substance, he began shooting at those in their seats and continued to shoot at others running for the exits.
President Barack Obama issued a statement saying he and the First lady were "shocked and saddened" by the massacre. He went on to say, "As we do when confronted by moments of darkness and challenge, we must now come together as one American family."
The gunman is now in police custody. A person at the theater captured the aftermath of the shooting on a cell phone camera.

Kanye West is always keeping up with Kim Kardashian!
The Grammy winner pulled up to Kim's posh Beverly Hills home on Thursday afternoon in the $750K matte black Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 she bough him for his birthday, and it looks like he's definitely getting some use out of it!
The reality star's ex-hubby of 72 days recently took a dig at West via Twitter, after he signed a two-year $24 million deal with the Nets, exclaiming: "I'm up at Brooklyn ... lucky I didn't have Jay drop me from the team."
West famously slammed Kris Humphries in his song "Way Too Cold," rapping: "I admit I fell in love with Kim / Around the same time she fell in love with him / Well that's cool baby girl / Do your thing / Lucky I ain't had Jay drop him from the team."
Kardashian also received a snide Tweet from her other famous ex, Ray-J, after she shared: "Keep your life in a positive perspective. We are not defined by our pasts," to which he replied: "Lol."

Bethenney Frankel may have spent the entire day filming her new talk show, but the reality star looked fresh and fabulous in NYC on Thursday afternoon, wearing the same stunning red dress she rocked on the show!
There is just one episode left before the former Real Housewives of New York star says goodbye to her talk show for the summer, after it was given a 6-week trial run on FOX.
Before announcing her show would be on hiatus, Frankel promised on air this week: "I have one little thing that I'm doing in August that I have to do for two hours, but besides that this is the last thing that I'm doing. I'm done. I really need to shut it down for two or three months because I just have never experienced a whirlwind like the last four or five years."

Ashton Kutcher was photographed on the Los Angeles set of jOBS on Thursday afternoon, and he seems to have aged about a decade since we last saw him in character as late Apple founder Steve Jobs.
The film, which is directed by Joshua Michael Stern, will chronicle Jobs' life from the early 1970s through 2000, and it will focus on how he made Apple a household name.
Earlier in the day Ashton was spotted shooting scenes at Loyola Marymount University, and last month the crew filmed at the Jobs family home in Los Altos, California. Think the hair and makeup crew will be going the J. Edgar route with his look when Ashton plays the tech wizard in his 50s? I guess we'll find out soon enough!
