LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Britney Spears is ready to walk down the
aisle for the third time. The 30-year-old pop star has agreed to
marry her longtime boyfriend and former agent Jason Trawick.

Trawick announced Friday on "Access Hollywood" that he and
Spears are engaged. The two have been dating since 2009.

Spears hinted at the big news with a tweet Friday morning that
read, "OMG. Last night Jason surprised me with the one gift I've
been waiting for. Can't wait to show you! SO SO SO excited!!!!"

Spears was previously married to Kevin Federline, with whom she
has two sons: 6-year-old Sean Preston and 5-year-old Jayden James.
The couple divorced in 2006. Spears also briefly wed childhood
friend Jason Alexander in 2004, but the marriage was annulled after
55 hours.
