Trouble-prone pop star Justin Bieber is engaged to model Hailey Baldwin, a long-time friend whom he has dated for one month, reports said on Sunday.

The 24-year-old Canadian heartthrob, who has become better known for his offstage antics, proposed to the 21-year-old over dinner Saturday night at a restaurant in the Bahamas, the celebrity news site TMZ said.

The site quoted witnesses at the restaurant, who said that Bieber’s security team asked them all to put their phones away for the proposal.

Both Baldwin and Bieber are members of the Hillsong Church, an evangelical Christian church that focuses on song and praise. It was started in Australia but has become known for its celebrity worshippers.
