Meghan Trainor told fiance Daryl Sabara which engagement ring to buy her - before he proposed.

The All About That Bass singer got engaged to the Spy Kids actor on her 24th birthday on December 22 - but had picked out her dream ring months before.

Meghan told Entertainment Tonight: "That was the secret. But I just wanted to make it perfect, just in case, you know?

"It's like, 'Just so you know, this one is my favourite.' And he was like, 'But let me have my moment to surprise you.' And he took his time and had his moment."

Daryl, 25, then had to devise a way of surprising Meghan with a proposal, even though she already knew about the ring.

Happy birthday to my soulmate. Thank you for changing my life forever and thank you for saying yes! You are the most beautiful fiancée in the world. I love you @meghan_trainor

"It was my birthday too, so I was like, 'This is just a birthday getaway.' And it was not. It was more."

Daryl added: "It was worth it... I was surprised that she was surprised. It's so hard to surprise her."

Now the couple are busy working on making sure their wedding will be just as perfect, but insists they won't be rushing down the aisle anytime soon.
