From USA Today:

X Factor judge Kelly Rowland, 32, has been trying to keep this quiet.

But she’s finally confirming big news — and a big diamond ring on her finger — in an interview airing on Wednesday’s Queen Latifah Show.

She is engaged to her manager and “best friend,” Tim Witherspoon, reports E! News.

“He put a ring on it,” Rowland says, happily holding up her hand.

“It’s been a while,” Rowland acknowledged. “We’ve kept it very, very low — for years, to be completely honest.”

Just last week, Arsenio Hall grilled her about the ring, but all she would say is, “I’m very happy. I believe in black love.”

But, wait. There’s more. Get a load of how Witherspoon popped the question.

“He asked me first on Skype,” Rowland tells Latifah, laughing, “and I was like, ‘We’re so far away from each other.'”

Said Latifah: “It’s the happiest thing that happened in Bulgaria that day.”
