Robert Pattinson and FKA Twigs Are, in Fact, Engaged!

Apr 2 2015 - 10:15am

Robert Pattinson and FKA Twigs are really engaged [1]! People confirmed the news after buzz about the couple began on Wednesday. In an interview with Vulture [2], rapper T-Pain talked about working with Twigs on his upcoming album, saying, "She's on tour so much, and anytime I call her, she's in a different place. And she's engaged now, so that's about to be a whole other thing." When asked further, T-Pain confirmed that the British singer is set to marry "ol' Patty," his nickname for Robert Pattinson [3], adding, "I don't know if she wanted anybody to know that . . . " He later posted a photo to Instagram [4] claiming that the comment was an April Fools' Day prank, writing, "Added a little #AprilFools to my interview with Vulture Magazine today. Check it out!!!!" It's likely that T-Pain got into some "T-rouble" with the couple's reps for spilling the beans, which could be why he made the April Fools' Day excuse; according to People, two sources confirmed to them that the former Twilight [5] star has indeed proposed to his girlfriend of six months.

On the same day as the engagement news broke, Rob was spotted heading to the gym in LA [6]; he was the victim of another prank that alleged he would be joining the cast of The Walking Dead [7]. Despite the alleged April Fools' Day joke, FKA Twigs was spotted wearing a thin gold band when she hit the red carpet [8] for an Alexander McQueen exhibit last month. Rob and Twigs have been dating [9] since August 2014 and were most recently seen traveling together in Paris [10] in early March. Congrats to the happy couple!
