Gabourey Sidibe is engaged to Brandon Frankel

The “Precious” actress announced that she and Brandon Frankel are engaged, almost a year after going public with their relationship.

“It’s weird that people think we’re already married but I guess our hearts and intentions for each other are just that clear to see,” Sidibe, 37, wrote in an Instagram post on Tuesday. “My BFF proposed and now I get to hold him forever. The funniest man I’ve ever met. The sweetest human to exist.”

She then described the little ways that Frankel makes her happy every day.

“@brandontour made up a song for when i put my bonnet on at night. The second I look a bit stressed and overwhelmed, he jumps into action to take over what he can for me,” she wrote. “Every moment with him is a joy. He is the partner i thought I was too independent to need.”

For her Instagram engagement announcement, Sidibe shared a video of herself flashing a sparkling engagement ring while Frankel, 35, shouted, “I put a ring on it!”

Sidibe confirmed her relationship with Frankel on Dec. 31, 2019 by sharing a gushing Instagram post calling him “the cherry on top of this last decade and the foundation of the next.” Her post came after Frankel — whose Instagram profile says he works in “Strategic Partnerships Tech/Entertainment” — had already been sharing photos of Sidibe since May 2019.
