R&B star Ginuwine has officially announced his engagement to longtime girlfriend Jannette Escartin, bringing an exciting new chapter to the singer’s personal life.
The couple, who have largely kept their relationship away from the public spotlight, are preparing to take the next step after Ginuwine proposed during a romantic moment overlooking the waterfront in Washington, D.C.
According to multiple entertainment reports, Escartin accepted the proposal immediately, with the intimate occasion witnessed by close family and friends who helped keep the engagement private until now.
A Relationship Built Away From the Spotlight
Unlike many celebrity couples who document every stage of their relationships online, Ginuwine and Escartin have chosen a more private approach.
The pair have reportedly been together for several years, quietly building their relationship away from social media headlines and public scrutiny.
Fans recently began speculating about their romance after Ginuwine left a heartfelt comment on Escartin’s Instagram post, simply writing, “Mine,” followed by a heart emoji.
While subtle, the message hinted that the couple were ready to become more open about their relationship.
A New Beginning for the R&B Icon
Now 55, Ginuwine has remained relatively private about his personal life in recent years.
The “Pony” hitmaker was previously married to rapper Solé. The pair married in 2003 before separating in 2015, and have continued to co-parent their blended family following their divorce.
Since then, Ginuwine has focused primarily on his music career while keeping much of his private life out of the public eye.
His engagement to Escartin marks one of the most significant personal announcements he has shared in years.
Fans Celebrate the Happy News
The announcement has been warmly received by fans, many of whom congratulated the couple across social media.
Supporters praised the pair for maintaining a low-profile relationship in an era where celebrity romances are often heavily publicised from the outset.
Entertainment observers have also noted that the engagement reflects a growing trend among public figures who choose to prioritise privacy over constant online exposure.
Wedding Plans Yet to Be Revealed
Although the engagement has now been confirmed, the couple have not announced a wedding date or shared further details about their upcoming plans.
For now, the focus remains on celebrating a milestone that marks the beginning of a new chapter together.
As one of R&B’s most recognisable voices, Ginuwine continues to enjoy support from fans around the world, who are now celebrating not only his music but also his latest personal milestone.
