Nicole Scherzinger, the lead singer of The Pussycat Dolls, has been in a loving relationship with a 38-year-old rugby player for three years, ever since they first crossed paths on the show ‘X Factor: Celebrity.’ Recently, during a break in Nicole’s hometown of Hawaii, the rugby player surprised her with a heartfelt proposal, and she joyfully accepted, sharing the news on Instagram. Nicole’s post featured a photo capturing the beautiful moment when Thom went down on one knee, presenting her with an engagement ring. Her simple yet meaningful caption read, “I said yes” accompanied by a ring emoji.
Thom, too, shared the same heartfelt photo on his Instagram, alongside another picture showcasing their embrace, with the ring sparkling on Nicole’s finger. He expressed his deep affection by captioning it “My Ever After.” The couple believes that the challenges brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic actually strengthened their bond, allowing them to build a solid foundation during times of lockdown.
In an earlier interview, Nicole openly acknowledged the difficulties she had faced in past relationships and expressed gratitude for the healthy and stable foundation she and Thom have built together. Thom, on the other hand, revealed an instant and incredible connection with Nicole, describing their relationship as “awesome.”
Nicole, who had previously been involved with Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton before finding love with Thom, had once revealed her dream honeymoon destination—a picturesque French Polynesian island called Tahiti. She expressed her desire to visit this enchanting location in an interview with Us Weekly magazine.
The couple’s engagement announcement garnered immense attention due to their large following, prompting countless likes and comments from friends, family, and fans who congratulated the soon-to-be-weds. Notable figures like Aquaman and Dune actor Jason Momoa and fellow Pussycat Doll Kimberly Wyatt joined in, showering them with good wishes. Celebrity friends such as Rebel Wilson, Paris Hilton, Laura Whitmore, Ronan Keating, Naomi Campbell, Gloria Gaynor, and Rylan Clarke also chimed in with their messages of joy and celebration.
