American singer, Mariah Carey, is reportedly engaged to boyfriend, James Packer.
According to E! News, Packer, the 48-year-old son of the late Australian media mogul, Kerry Packer, presented Carey with “what can only be described as the most breathtaking engagement ring” in New York, USA on Thursday night.
The breathtaking ring is reportedly a 35-carat diamond.
It was all a surprise to her and caught her off guard,” a source close to singer revealed to HollywoodLife.com. “She was stunned and overwhelmed in the moment and said yes. Not saying she would have said no if she time to think about it but she wasn’t going to disappoint him and tell him no in front of everybody.”
“Like everything Mariah does in her life, it’s fast and extreme,” the source added. “She’s rushing into this with James. The romance is on fire and instead of them just roasting in the fireplace together, they’ve got to go and get married. It’s a lot.”
Carey, 45, has been married twice before – to American rapper and actor Nick Cannon whom she has two children with and music executive Tommy Mottola.
Packer has also been married twice – to model Jodhi Meares and model/singer Erica Baxter whom he has three children with.
Packer and Carey met at a movie premiere in Aspen in 2014 and have been dating since June of 2015.
The couple recently celebrated New Year’s Eve at Crown casino in Melbourne.
