Marc Anthony surprised Hollywood after he announced that he has already gotten engaged.

The 46-year-old singer is already getting ready to tie the knot with 26-year-old girlfriend Shannon De Lima, Us Weekly reports.

Ever the secretive, Jennifer Lopez's ex-hubby asked de Lima's hands way back March. The report also said that the couple is slated to marry at the Dominican Republic later this month.

Marc and Shannon, a Venezuelan model, started dating in 2012, six months after Marc broke up with Jennifer Lopez.

However, they parted ways a year after.

Rumors of their engagement went abuzz after Shannon was photographed with a large diamond ring on her finger. The couple, however, did not reveal anything until Marc Anthony broke the news recently. 

Before resuming his romance with Shannon, the Vivir Mi Vida singer was in a relationship with heiress Cloe Green, the 23-year-old daughter of Topshop owner Sir Philip Green. Their relationship lasted only a year.

This will be Marc Anthony's third marriage. His first wife was Miss Universe-turned-actress Dayanara Torres. Their marriage lasted three years and produced two sons, Cristian, 13, and Ryan, 11. 

Marc's relationship with ex-girlfriend Debbie Rosado produced a daughter, 20-year-old Ariana.

With Jennifer Lopez, he fathered twins Max and Emme.

Marc Anthony and JLo immediately tied the knot only less than a week after his divorce from Dayanara was granted. Their marriage lasted for seven years until they separated in 2011.  Their divorce was finally granted June 2014, three months after he proposed to Shannon.
