Maroon 5’s lead singer Adam Levine is now engaged to his model girlfriend, Behati Prinsloo . After Levine dated the 24 year old Victoria Secret model on and off again, he decided to ask her to marry him. At one point, the couple even broke up. Neither Levine nor Prinsloo have directly addressed the engagement on social media.
“ Adam Levine and his girlfriend Behati Prinsloo are excited to announce they are engaged to be married,” Levine’s rep told People on Tuesday. “The couple recently reunited and Adam proposed this weekend in Los Angeles.”
No word on how he popped the question or on potential wedding dates, but news comes as Levine is preparing to go on tour with Maroon 5 and Kelly Clarkson from August to January. He’ll be returning to his big red chair in the fall for another season of “The Voice,” NBC’s singing competition series.
This will be a first marriage for Levine. He has always had is doubts about it. “I’m extremely fascinated by marriage,” Levine told Paper Mag in May 2012. “I want to learn about it. I want to know it. I want to figure out whether or not I want to do it. I’m not just going to leap into it, because that’s not good for anybody.”
More recently Levine stated, “If you don’t get married, you can’t get divorced,” he told Nylon Guys in May 2013. “Why couldn’t we learn from the devastatingly low percentage of successful marriages that our last generation went through?”
Has the singer learned how to fix the previous generation? He did take a step in the direction forward by getting engaged. Levine has been pretty open about his penchant for beautiful women.”There’s two kinds of men: There are men who are… misogynist pigs, and then there are men who just really love women, who think they’re the most amazing people in the world. And that’s me,” Levine told Details magazine in June 2012.
