Shania Twain Engaged To Marry Frederic Thiebaud

Wedding Bells for Shania Twain! The “Come on Over” hitmaker is engaged to wed beau Frederic Thiebaud, the singer’s rep confirmed to Us Weekly this week.

Frederic, a Nestle executive, popped the question two months ago in his native Switzerland, a Shania snoop tells Us. Thiebaud is the ex-husband of Twain’s former best friend Marie-Anne Thiebaud — the woman Shania’s former flame Mutt Lange abruptly left her for in May 2008. Both Mutt and Marie-Anne denied the affair, but in the wake of the alleged betrayal, Shania and Frederic, Marie-Anne’s jilted husband, reached out to each other, bonding over their mutual heartbreak and ultimately falling in love.

(Keep those names straight. There’ll be a quiz on this later. Hint: Banjo Music may help you understand.)

“I’ve never seen Shania so happy. She has ended up with the love of her life,” a friend of the singer squealed to Us.

The Daily Mail reports that Thiebaud helped to design the three-carat, emerald-cut diamond sparkler that Shania was spied sporting at Serafina’s Fabulous Grill in NYC last Thursday. The ring is worth an estimated $100,000.

Shania – who has a nine-year-old son, Eja, with Lange – has long credited her now fiance with helping her overcome a difficult divorce.

Writing on her official website earlier this year, Shania called Frederic “a dear friend and true gentleman … We leaned on one another through the ups and downs, taking turns holding each other up. We’ve become stronger and closer through it all.”

Twain is putting the finishing touches on an upcoming reality show, which will debut on The Oprah Winfrey Network in January.

Congrats Shania!
