Nicole Scherzinger, the American singer and former judge of The X Factor, has announced her engagement to her boyfriend Thom Evans, a Scottish former rugby union player, and model. The couple shared the happy news on their respective Instagram accounts on Tuesday, along with photos of the romantic beach proposal.

The photos showed Scherzinger’s reaction to Evans getting down on one knee and presenting her with a ring in a romantic proposal on the beach, as well as the couple embracing and kissing. Celebrities such as actor Jason Momoa, fellow Pussycat Doll Kimberly Wyatt, Rebel Wilson, Paris Hilton, Laura Whitmore, Ronan Keating, Naomi Campbell, Gloria Gaynor, and Rylan Clarke, among many others, congratulated the duo on social media.

Nicole, 44, posted a couple of pictures where Thom can be seen going down on his knees to propose to the singer while another picture showed the two embracing the moment. She captioned two photos of the couple's special moment, "I said yes."

Jason Momoa commented, "cheeeehuuuuuu. congratulations. ❤️❤️❤️❤️all my aloha" while other celebrities like Rebel Wilson, Paris Hilton, Naomi Campbell, and Winnie Harlow among others congratulated the Pusscat Dolls member. Apart from Nicole, Thom, 38, also shared the same set of photos with the caption, "My Ever After," along with a ring and a heart emoji. 

The TV judge and her Scottish boyfriend first confirmed their relationship in 2020 and have been going strong since frequently vacationing together and effectively managing busy schedules that sometimes take them to opposite ends of the globe. Thom spent most of his career playing for Glasgow Warriors and made ten test appearances for Scotland also but was forced to retire from the sport at the age of 24 following an injury he sustained in a game playing for Scotland against Wales.
