Ariana Grande announces she's engaged - and shows off unique engagement ring which fans think has hidden meaning

Ariana Grande has announced her engagement to her boyfriend Dalton Gomez.

The singer casually revealed the happy news by posting a series of images to her 2010m Instagram followers.

She captioned the post quite simply with: "forever n then some."

The first picture show Ariana, 27, and real estate agent Dalton snuggled up together before further pictures show her incredible engagement ring.

In one Ariana took a mirror selfie with the ring proudly on show before more of the couple together.

The huge diamond is accompanied by a stunning pearl on the silver band which fans think have a hidden meaning.

A fan account tweeted an old screenshot of one of Ariana's tweets which showed a pearl ring.

She wrote that her 'nonna' had the ring made for her using the pear from her grandpa's tie pin, adding: "She says he told her in a dream it'd protect me".

It's thought that the couple began dating last year before spending lockdown together.

Fans have completely flooded the post with messages with many 'sobbing' at the news.

Ariana's mum Joan Grande tweeted: "I am so excited to welcome Dalton Gomez into our family! Ariana, I love you and Dalton so much!!!! Here’s to happily ever after! YAY!"

"Soooo happy for you guys!!! Love you," Kim Kardashian commented.

Hailey Bieber added: "YAYYYYY!!!! so happy for you guys."
