AceShowbiz - Australian actress Abbie Cornish is engaged.
The 36-year-old has accepted mixed martial arts fighter Adel Altamimi's proposal, and now the couple is planning a big wedding.
The "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" star took to Instagram late on Valentine's Day, February 14, to share her exciting news, posting a series of photos featuring the couple.
In one, her new engagement ring could clearly be seen.
Quoting poet John Keats, Abby wrote: "A thing of beauty is a joy forever", adding, "You've swept me off my feet my love! I have been waiting for you. The answer is yes!"
Abbie then wished her new fiance a happy Valentine's Day, writing: "And may God share this light and love with us forever in his arms. Blessed be this day with you. We'll never forget this anniversary! Happy Valentine's Day to my fiance."
Clearly overcome with emotion, Cornish later posted another sweet snap of herself cuddling her man and showing off her ring, adding: "Oh my."
Prior to the big engagement reveal, the actress gushed about her boyfriend on the most romantic day of the year, writing: "I respect you so much. The light you see is the light you give. Your mindset and patient heroism in this life is beyond..."
"There are so many lessons that you could teach the world right now, at only 30 years of age, and there is so much more to come."
This will be Abbie's first marriage.
She previously dated Ryan Phillippe in 2006, shortly after his divorce from Reese Witherspoon.
