LONDON — Supermodel Kate Moss is engaged to marry her rock star boyfriend Jamie Hince, The Sun reported Thursday.
They intend to marry July 2, with Kate’s daughter Lila, eight, as chief bridesmaid.
The catwalk queen joked she would be the most famous Kate to wed in 2011 — not Prince William’s fiancee, Kate Middleton.
Guitarist Hince, 40, of hit band The Kills, popped the question in bed Tuesday night after Moss put the lights out to go to sleep.
He surprised her with a vintage 1920s engagement ring worth tens of thousands of pounds after switching the lights back on and going down on one knee.
Romantic Hince even followed tradition by asking Moss’ mom and dad for permission.
A source close to the couple said Wednesday night, “Kate is delighted. Jamie is the man for her — they are soul mates. She just wanted to make him work for her hand in marriage.”
The source added, “He has been badgering her to get married, but she wanted to take her time. Over the last year, they have grown so close, they are like man and wife. They’re going to have the mother of all weddings. It will be a huge party, one of the biggest she has ever thrown — and she’s thrown a few.”
Moss and Hince called friends and family Wednesday night to break the news, and flowers were already arriving at the home they recently moved into in Hampstead, north London.
Earlier this year, it was wrongly reported that they tied the knot while on vacation in Sicily, but they were instead playing a game with Lila — Moss’ child by ex-boyfriend Jefferson Hack.
