If your long-time celebrity crush was Pippa Middleton, I regret to inform you that she might be off the market.

According to E! News, Kate Middleton's 32-year-old sister Pippa is reportedly engaged to James Matthews, a 40-year-old hedge fund exec who manages investment advisory firm Eden Rock Capital Management. There aren't any confirmed details regarding where the reported marriage proposal took place but sources told E! News that it all went down sometime this summer.

Daily Mail, which first broke the news regarding the engagement, reports that the proposal happened somewhere within the Lake District in England and that Matthews had asked Pippa's father, Michael Middleton, for permission prior to the proposal.

A source close to the couple revealed,

Mike and Carole Middleton are very happy. They like James and they are sure he will make Pippa very happy.

Reports also stated that Pippa was "completely and totally surprised" following the proposal.

As for an official wedding date, engagement photos and things of that nature, we'll just have to wait and see. But for now, it's looking like Pippa Middleton might actually be off the market!
