Liam Hemsworth popped the question! Miley Cyrus announced to People Magazine that she is engaged to be married to Liam Hemsworth. In a statement the 19-year old singer and Hannah Montana actress says, "I'm so happy to be engaged and look forward to a life of happiness with Liam."

Liam, 22, proposed on May 31st with a 3.5 carat diamond ring from jeweler Neil Lane. The celebrity jeweler told People that Liam asked for "something unusual. Something really beautiful and romantic." Liam and Neil Lane went back and forth until Liam was satisfied. The final pick was a 3.5 carat cushion-cut diamond handcrafted in 18-karat gold. The ring has a distinct art nouveau pattern with handcarved diamond floral motifs. The center stone is highlighted by smaller stones set in the gold band. The jeweler says, "The light flashes and sparkles no matter where Miley moves her hand." The center stone is an antique from the late 19th century. Neil Lane says, "It was hand-cut around 1880 or 1890 and it's unique and in its original form. At that time no two diamonds were alike, as they were all hand-cut, so it's fascinating to look at because it hasn't been re-cut to look contemporary over the years. I find that really romantic."
