Earlier this year, news leaked that Brandy and her boyfriend, Ryan Press, had become engaged after more than two years of dating. Now, insiders close to the couple are opening up about their new chapter of love.
In a new article by Us Weekly, an insider close to Brandy and Press say that the couple are ecstatic about their engagement.
“They are thrilled and happy and Brandy feels this is so right,” the insider said.
Brandy’s new zeal for wedded bliss is a far cry from her thoughts about love before meeting Press. In August, Brandy told Us that she had given up on love before Press came along.
“I had given up on love a long time ago. It just didn’t seem to work for me, so I was single for a very long time,” Brandy revealed. “I stopped looking for love and then I ran into my boyfriend.”
“He just loves me for who I am,” she added. “I don’t have to camouflage anything for him or put on a mask. I can completely be myself and he loves me so much and I love him just the way he is, too.”
But, later that month, she explained to Sister 2 Sister that she expected Press to propose to her in the coming months.
“I keep hearing about a ring. People keep calling me, hinting to me about it, but I don’t know,” Brandy said. “I’m going to be patient and let it happen and just let it be. . . I guess it will happen when it’s the right time.”
We’re happy that both Press and Brandy have finally found love in each other, and she’s not the only R&B crooner that’s found a love of her own. Check out some other singers in wedded bliss below. – nicholas robinson
