"My heart is singing the happiest song it’s ever sung! I’m bursting with joy and overcome with emotion that I get to embark on this new adventure with my best friend, my partner in crime, my ride or die!" Leona wrote. "@dennisjauch I can’t wait to be your wife. Eeek wife! What?! Argh! Hahaha I still can’t believe it. I dreamed you up and you came true. The most caring, kindhearted and inspiring person I’ve had the privilege to know. Now let’s go have a big ol’ partyyyyy."

The Bleeding Love singer has previously opened up about her relationship with Dennis, particularly as the pair were on-and-off before settling down. She told The Telegraph: "Before, I thought I wanted to be young and single, then once I was I realised it wasn't all it was cracked up to be. We're together, but because we both travel so much we have to make a huge effort to see one another. If we are within an hour of each other one of us will jump on a plane to see the other. I think the most unexpected meeting place was in Romania."
