DMX (real names Earl Simmons) is starting a new chapter in his life, and is about to be a married man! The rapper recently proposed to his fiancée Desiree Lindstrom at their son’s birthday party. The pair were apparently already engaged and had briefly broken up that very same day. However, DMX had a change of heart and decided to make things right with a second proposal.

It all went down at Sky Zone, where the couple was hosting their son Exodus’s third birthday party. In a video obtained by TMZ, DMX gets the partygoers’ attention and proceeds to tell them about their break up earlier in the day. He explains that is why Lindstrom had been wearing her engagement ring around her neck. After getting visibly emotional, he gets down on one knee and presents her with a brand new ring. The couple kissed and hugged it out as he slides the precious stone on her ring finger.

After the emotional proposal, the newly engaged lovebirds got back to entertaining their guests and showing their adorable son a good time.

Lindstrom later shared a closeup of the ring while singing her fiance’s praises for his great taste.

Congratulations to the happy couple!
