The couple formally announced their engagement after reports claimed Goodrem had rejected the singer's proposal, saying she was "too young" to settle down.

However, in a statement, the two have denied the report, confirming that they are in fact planning to get married.

The statement reads: "The couple were hoping to keep the news private however they feel it is important to now confirm the exciting news."

Brian and Delta met when recording a duet together while he was still married to drug-addict Atomic Kitten singer Kerry Katona, with whom he has two children.

They began dating shortly after Brian's marriage to Kerry fell apart in late 2004.

Since then, McFadden has been involved in a divorce battle that cost him over £70,000 but is said to be re-launching his career in Hollywood.
