Wedding bells are ringing! Lady Gaga just confirmed her engagement to her boyfriend of almost two years, Christian Carino. E! News reports that the pop star gave a shoutout to Carino during an emotional and empowering speech at Elle‘s 25th Annual Women in Hollywood Celebration on Monday, and referred to him as her fiancé.
Rumors of an engagement began swirling after Lady Gaga was spotted with a giant pink gem on her left ring finger, which People reports she had been sporting for months.
Mother Monster was previously engaged to Taylor Kinney, until their relationship ended in July 2016. Not long after, the singer was seen hanging around Carino. The two were first spotted getting cozy in early February 2017 at Super Bowl LI, and have been by each other’s side ever since. We haven’t seen much of Carino in the public eye, as he does work behind the scenes as a Hollywood agent. But the few times he has stepped out with our favorite starlet, the two always appear to be so in love. Perhaps keeping their relationship on the DL has been the key to success.
It’s been an exhilarating past few months for Lady Gaga as she took the lead in A Star Is Born, opposite Bradley Cooper, and got to showcase her impressive acting chops. The soundtrack has garnered such success itself, that it became a number one album, according to The New York Times. She has also been in the spotlight as a supporter of the #MeToo movement and has been praised for speaking openly about her traumatic experience as a sexual assault survivor at Elle’s 25th Annual Women in Hollywood celebration. It’s amazing to see that after all she has been through, she now has true love to celebrate.
We wish Lady Gaga and Christian Carino the best, and hope that maybe we can score an invite to the wedding!
