Nicki Minaj has confirmed her engagement to fellow rapper Meek Mill after posting a photo of her stunning diamond engagement ring on social media.

The Anaconda hitmaker teased fans with engagement news on Wednesday afternoon (15Apr15), by posting a shot of herself and her new fiance on Instagram. In the photo she appeared to be showing off a new piece of jewelry on her left ring finger.

She later fueled speculation on Twitter by posting emojis of a diamond ring, a heart and a diamond next to the caption, "I'll post it later".

Staying true to her word, Minaj shared a close-up shot of her new jewelry item - a large yellow heart diamond surrounded by a double halo of white diamonds - on Instagram hours later.

Minaj's caption contained nothing but symbols yet again - this time yellow hearts and an emoji face with heart eyes.

Meanwhile, Mill's only comment regarding his engagement news came as a reply to a fan who suggested the rapper was "so f**king lucky", to which Mill answered, "I am".

The couple went public with its romance in February (15), just months after Minaj split from Safaree Samuels, her ex-boyfriend of over a decade.
