Forgetting those jar of hearts. Singer Christina Perri is engaged to Paul Costabile, she announced on Wednesday, June 21.
The hitmaker behind Twilight anthem “A Thousand Years” took to Instagram to share the life-altering news. “Paul asked me to marry him tonight and i said yes!” Perri wrote, alongside a photo of her new ring.
Costabile, an on-air personality and host, echoed his future wife’s sentiments on social media. “I knew I wanted to ask this girl to marry me the day she walked into the green screen for an interview almost 4 years ago,” he said. “I finally asked her right here tonight and she said yes !!!”

It’s been an eventful week for the artist after a resurgence of interest in her 2011 single “Arms.” The moment was sparked after an emotional performance of the single by a 13-year-old girl on America’s Got Talent. The teen, a girl named Evie Clair, revealed on the show this week that she sings the tune to her father, who’s battling stage-4 colon cancer.
Perri, overcome with emotion by Clair’s sweet gesture, tweeted at the AGT contestant late Tuesday. “Hi, @evieclair! thanks so much for choosing my song for this special moment in ur life!” Perri wrote. “Ur incredible! im sending so much love to u & dad.”
