LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Spice Girl Geri Halliwell is engaged to Italian yacht-company owner Fabrizio Politi, Access Hollywood has learned.

According to the Spice Girl’s reps, the couple’s engagement took place over the holidays.

“We are delighted to announce the engagement of Geri Halliwell and Fabrizio Politi,” a rep for the singer said in a statement released to Access. “As a token of their commitment to each other, Fabrizio presented Geri with an engagement ring over the Festive Season.”

According to Britain’s The Daily Mail, Fabrizio gave his bride-to-be a $310,000 diamond ring.

“There are no immediate plans for marriage as the couple are enjoying their engagement,” the statement continued.

Geri and Fabrizio have recently been spotted vacationing in Maldives, Tuscany and Paris.
