UsMagazine.com is reporting that singer Alicia Keys and producer Swizz Beatz are now engaged to be married. Swizz proposed with a 7-carat ring last Sunday, the day before Alicia’s 29th birthday. For whatever reasons, Alicia’s reps are denying the reports, but sources say Alicia “feels blessed” and “is thrilled.”
Swizz Beatz is in the midst of divorcing his current wife, singer Mashonda. They have a 3-year-old son and had been married four years when deciding to split last April. Swizz also has a 15-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.
Congrats Alicia! We’ll miss your amazing heartbreak songs. XO
