Candice Swanepoel is trading the catwalk for the aisle.
According to E! News, the Victoria’s Secret model is engaged to her longtime boyfriend Hermann Nicoli. A source told E! Swanepoel, “couldn’t be happier.”
The 26-year-old and Nicole have been together for nearly 10 years after the two met in Paris when Swanepoel was just 17-years-old. In that decade the model is said to have learned to speak Portuguese from her Brazilian boyfriend.
Swanepoel has opened up to E! News in the past when she said the two have learned how to deal with being in a long distance relationship, even on days like Valentine’s Day. “You don’t have to have your loved one with you. You can go out with the girls, have a good time,” Swanepoel said. “It’s also a good excuse if you have a crush on somebody to use that as the day to let them know.”
Although the couple is usually private, in the past Swanepoel has posted pictures on her Instagram account of the couple together.
