Birthday to remember for Kate Moss as long-term love Jamie Hince proposes

19 JANUARY 2010

While she may have been happy with a new pair of shoes or perhaps a designer handbag, Kate Moss was given the most special gift of all for her 36th birthday at the weekend - an engagement ring.

According to the Daily Mail, the British supermodel is set to marry her musician love, Jamie Hince.

Kills guitarist Jamie, who has been dating the Croydon-born beauty on and off since 2007, flew out to Mustique where Kate was working on Saturday.

And with a diamond ring that Kate's father-figure Philip Green helped to choose, Jamie, 40, popped the question on the evening of her birthday.

"Kate was stunned," a friend of the couple says.

"It was the first time they had been alone together in quite a while and it was extremely emotional.

"Kate and Jamie are in a very good place, they already live together and this is the next step to settling down for good."

It's a big step for 36-year-old Kate, whose lifetime love was always considered to be Johnny Depp - her boyfriend of four years in 1998.

But Pirates of the Caribbean star Johnny has explained in the past why their relationship was not meant to be: "I don't think I was very good for her. So what we did was right - we walked away from each other."
