Gorgeous! 

Upton told E! News that she was "really excited" about her engagement, adding that her fiancé asked right before baseball season started. Upton and her 33-year-old beau have been dating for over three years.    

"We've been keeping it on the down-low for quite a while, so I'm excited to finally be able to share it with the world," Upton said. The 23-year-old model said she and Verlander haven't made wedding plans yet and are simply "enjoying the engagement period."
