Siva Kaneswaran engaged to longtime girlfriend
The Wanted star Siva Kaneswaran is engaged to his longtime girlfriend Nareesha McCaffrey.
The 25 year old reveals he caught shoe designer McCaffrey off-guard with his proposal as she planned to throw him a surprise birthday party in November (13), but he decided to turn the tables on her and transformed it into an engagement party.
He explains to Hello! magazine, "It was like a military operation
to plan the proposal. I couldn't even tell the other boys in the
band in case they blew the surprise.
"I said to her, 'I wanted a present I would always remember this
year by - for you to be my wife.' I'd bought the ring months before
I'd been trying to figure out the right time. I love her, I love
every bit of her."
The singer specially designed a three-carat diamond solitaire ring
for his now-fiancee, who was initially too overwhelmed and declined
his lavish proposal, but eventually accepted.
McCaffrey, who has been dating Kaneswaran for the past six years,
gushes, "I'm still in shock. I don't like surprises and he really
surprised me, but I was so happy. I can't wait to start planning
the wedding."
Kaneswaran is not the first member of The Wanted to be engaged -
his bandmate Max George was previously set to wed British actress
Michelle Keegan, but the couple split in 2012.
