The news of Cory Monteith's death brought along a variety of rumors about the cause of his passing...as well as some buzz about the state of his relationship with girlfriend Lea Michele.
Some wondered if the couple broke up, while others believed that Cory and Lea would be getting married soon.
A source tells Us Weekly that everything was good between the couple--and that they were planning to take things to the next level...not a wedding, but moving in together.
The insider revealed, "Lea and Cory were planning on moving in together after he got back from Vancouver."
The source explained that the couple "weren't talking engagement or marriage yet but it was heading that way. The first step was Cory was going to move in [to Michele's L.A. home] completely. He was already there all the time."
Cory and Lea, the insider notes, "were 100 percent happy and together and in love at the time of his death. They never broke up."
We can't imagine how Lea is dealing with Cory's death, but her rep did release a statement that said: "We ask that everyone kindly respect Lea's privacy during this devastating time."
