Nazanin Mandi has found her happily ever after, and the 40-year-old is sharing the news. Mandi was previously married to singer Miguel.

The pair started dating as teenagers around 2005 and dated for over a decade before getting married. Mandi filed for a divorce in 2021, and after a brief reconciliation, finalized in 2023.

Nazanin Mandi Announces Engagement To Michael Gilroy 

In an open love letter to her future husband on Instagram, the “Forever Mood” singer gushed about her new beau, confirming he popped the big question.

“My Michael,” she began. “The respect, peace, and love we share are otherworldly. They are the foundation of everything we are building together. The model then gave her fiancé his flowers, writing:

“You are truly one of one. The man who changed my life in the deepest, most sincere way. I would happily experience every tear, every moment of loneliness, and every season of solitude all over again, knowing you would be waiting for me at the end of it all.” 

The declaration of love continued as she expressed how much being Michael’s wife meant to her, calling it an honor.

The story might be straight out of a storybook. However, Mandi revealed the real magic was in the little details.

“The proposal was a complete fairytale, but our truest joy lies in the calm we bring out in one another daily. Our tranquil home, snacks and laughter in bed until 2 a.m., school drop-offs, and the greatest gifts of all ~ Queen Soraya and the expansion of our family & legacy, I can’t wait,” she gushed.

Barely a month ago, the “Sure Thing” singer’s partner, Margaret Zhang, displayed her baby bump at the HollyShorts Film Festival in Los Angeles.

BCK Online reported that the “Adorn” singer attended the HollyShorts Film Festival opening night on August 13, where he received the Music Visionary Award. Zhang joined him for the special screening of “Papá Melissa,” a documentary the couple co-produced.

The second child comes a year after the singer shocked fans with news of his 1-year-old child, Angelito, who he had secretly welcomed with the fashion designer a year earlier. 

The “Sure Thing” singer posted a joint social media post with Zhang to celebrate his firstborn’s first birthday. “Our baby turned one today,” the caption of the post read, showing the singer holding his child with a blurred-out face. 

The Grammy-winning artist also used the opportunity to share his new song, which was directed by partner Zhang. “Papa wrote you a song; hope it always reminds you of how loved you are,” he rounded up the caption, nudging everyone to listen to it and cry, per The Blast.

Pimentel defended his actions, adding, “But when you meet someone, and you’re like, ‘Man, I really need something special here,’ I can see where everything happened.” He confirmed, however, that he and Mandi still share a tremendous amount of love.
