Photo: Wow Check out the 7-carat diamond ring George Clooney gave new fiancee

I heard a few days ago that chronic bachelor George Clooney was engaged but I decided not to carry it until I saw a ring. It was hard to believe, especially because he's only dated this woman for less than seven months. But praise be to God, the news is true. George reportedly proposed the traditional way - on bended knee - to Lebanese-born, Oxford-educated lawyer, Amal Alamuddin on April 22nd with a 7-carat emerald-cut diamond ring with two tapered baguettes set in platinum, which he helped design.

People magazine has exclusively obtained a pic of the ring and it's beautiful. There are reports that they are planning to marry before September. When a man knows, he knows! Congrats to George.

Amal is a top lawyer whose work includes issues related to Syria, drones and Wikileaks and is also an adviser to former UN Secretary general Kofi Annan, now the special envoy to Syria.

Amal reportedly got George very interested by turning him down twice when he asked her to dinner. She said she was too busy but agreed to the third date. Six months later, she did what no woman has been able to do in over 20 years, get a ring from George

This will be the second trip down the aisle for Clooney. He was married to Talia Balsam from 1989 to 1993
