Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger is engaged to his longtime partner Melanie Hamrick.

Although Jagger actually proposed two or three years ago, Hamrick, a former ballerina, confirmed the engagement in a recent interview with the French publication Paris Match.

She also added that they have no concrete plans for a wedding.

“We’ve been engaged two or three years,” Hamrick said. “Maybe one day we’ll marry, maybe not. We are so happy in our current life that I would be too afraid to change anything.”

Jagger, 81, and Hamrick, 37, have been together since 2014 and share a son, Deveraux, who was born in 2016. Hamrick first met Jagger while he was on tour with The Rolling Stones.

Jagger was previously married once, to Bianca Jagger from 1971 to 1978, with whom he shares one child. He also has children with Marsha Hunt, Jerry Hall, and Luciana Gimenez Morad.
