Kylie Minogue and new fiance confirm engagement

Kylie Minogue and her actor boyfriend Joshua Sasse have confirmed their engagement in the marriage section of Britain's Daily Telegraph.

The 47-year-old singer and her 28-year-old fiance have been dating since meeting and falling in love on the set of his medieval comedy Galavant last year (Sep15), and now the couple is planning a wedding.

Their small engagement announcement in the Saturday edition of the broadsheet reads: "The engagement is announced between Joshua, so of the late Dominic Sasse and of Mary Heale (nee Macauley), of Herefordshire and Kylie, eldest daughter of Ronald and Carol Minogue, of Melbourne, Australia."

The notice appeared a day after reports of the engagement surfaced. Sasse was overheard announcing the engagement at an NME Awards after party in London on Wednesday (17Feb16). Kylie was wearing her diamond engagement ring at the bash, but neither she nor her new fiance officially commented on the piece of jewelry.

Reports suggest Sasse proposed during a skiing vacation in Switzerland over the Christmas holidays and Kylie has been wearing his ring since the beginning of the year (16).

The actor's family has ties to The Daily Telegraph - his great-grandfather, William Berry, bought the newspaper in the late 1920s.

Kylie was previously engaged to Spanish model Andres Velencoso, but the couple split in 2013.
