Michelle Williams is reportedly engaged to New York financier boyfriend, Andrew Youmans.

The actress – who has a daughter with late actor Heath Ledger – has kept her new relationship out of the limelight, with the couple yet to even make their first public appearance together.

“She wants a good guy and a stable family life," one insider told the magazine.

Engagement rumours were rife when Williams was spotted wearing a heart-shaped diamond ring on her finger at the Golden Globes earlier this month – but the star brushed it off as “beautiful jewellery”.

The ring was also on show when the 37-year-old holidayed in the Bahamas over New Year, which she spent with Youmans and her daughter Matilda.
