“She said Yes!!! Since Day 1 I knew you were the one,” Russell tweeted from the private resort North Island.

A popular destination among the rich and famous, Prince William and Kate, Duchess of Cambridge, honeymooned at the North Island Resort. George and Amal Clooney picked the same resort for their honeymoon.

The soon-to-be Mrs. Wilso chimed in with “God Is Good! Grateful For You @DangRussWilson. You Are Heaven Sent. I’m Looking Forward To Spending Forever With You.”

“The biggest surprise was that Russell proposed to his new fiancée at the romantic private ‘Honeymoon Beach’ located on North Island,” one of Ciara’s representatives said in a statement. They made their appearance as a couple in spring 2015 at the Obamas’ Japanese state dinner.

About a week before their engagement, the two attended the Givenchy Fall 2016 fashion show held during Paris Fashion Week in Paris, France.

Ciara, who said that Ricardo Tisci himself styled her, looked ultra-chic in a lapeled robe-coat.

Bow Wow’s ex-girlfriend paired it with matching pajama-like satin trousers and a see-through lace top. We don’t see any hints of a bra underneath that top, do you?
