Alicia Keys, Swizz Beatz Secretly Engaged?

Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz

Singer Alicia Keys may be taking her relationship with boyfriend, producer Swizz Beatz, to the next level and getting married. Rumor has it that the 29-year-old is "secretly" engaged to Swizzy, despite her rep's claims to the contrary. The story arose when Keys was photographed sporting a rock on her ring finger while on vacation in Hawaii with Swizz.

The two have been making headlines since getting together in 2008. Most notably, Swizz's ex-wife Mashonda has been very vocal about in her disapproval of their relationship, claiming that Keys caused the break-up of her marriage. "My concern with AK is no longer the fact that she assisted in destroying a family but that she has the audacity to make these selfish comments about love and wanting to be with someone, even after knowing their situation," she wrote in an open letter to Keys via her Twitter page. "You have no idea how much pain I was caused because of this affair, It's baffling to me that you don't understand what I might have gone through with this situation," Mashonda added.

Both Swizz and Keys rarely speak about their relationship but have been traveling and spending lots of time together in recent months. Despite playing coy about his love for her, Swizz briefly spoke about his love for Keys, telling the New York Daily News that they're taking things slow. "We're nowhere near ready for a baby or a ring," he told the newspaper in an interview last year. Swizz may have had a change of tune.

No word yet on how Mashonda is taking the news of the possible engagement.

I hear what everyone is calling you, homewrecker, fake, etc. But, I say follow your heart,you do not appear to be a dumy, so do you and forget what others are saying, because after all do we reaally know what's going on on the inside??? No!
so do you.
Love you much,

I thought the two of them been together for 8 years. I remember on the Wendy Williams show last year that they(Alicia and Swizz)came out to say that they have been together for 8 years. This was after Wendy, attended the album release party(J Records) for Whitney Houston. Alicia, Swizz and Wendy took pictures at the party. Also, Alicia did an interview with Essence magazine in November 2007 and she talked about this six year romance she had. So, when Wendy reported it on her show in 2009 after the album release party that made it 8 years. I am not sure when Swizz and Mashonda were married but something is not right. If Alicia broke up a marriage, then, she is wrong for that

All you negative people kill me. Obviously Mashonda is hurt because she has a failed marriage on her hands. Sometimes people will say and do anything just because someone doesn't want to be with them anymore. He probably fell out of love way before AK came along. Who are any of you to judge? How can you call her a home wrecker when you don't have any facts? I respect her and Swizz for keeping it classy and not commenting on the situation. It's no one's business and they don't owe anyone an explanation. Mashonda is desperate for attention and a career. She's probably trying to get a new record deal lol. (fail) I think it's poor taste to put business out there when you have children involved. I have a child and I would NEVER do that. So one day, her child will see the nonsense that she tweeted, how embarrassing! good night

to be honest AK and swizz are individuals just like all of us and we personally dont know what is going on in his house or what happen so basically thats their business and her music dont have to reflect on her life thats her job so that dont have anything to do with how she leave we say one thing and do another so whats the difference like i said she is a human being just like us she is just a superstar!

About past relationships; no one knows what's in the pot, but the spoon that stirs it. So whatever happene between this man and his wife, it wasn't Alicia who made it happen, it was the guys lack of care and interest along with the wife's neglect to let it go as far. Now, this guy is ugly, and I know that looks aren't everything. But A.K is a fox. The again, the man might treat her right, although I doubt he'll be able to do for her what he didn't do for his wife and fam. He ran off with "another woman" so Alicia should run for the hills and look for someone who'll be for her as much as she needs it instead of someone like a man who'd turn his back on any woman as soon as he sees the next piece of eye candy turning the corner. Good men get a bum rap due to guys like this. I have a good woman, she nags, but that's what they do. I love her with all my heart and I'd do anything for her as she would for me. A.K needs someone who sees her for the woman she is and not for the "prestige and glamor" she might bring to a behind the scenes career, as I'm sure this guy sees her...
