Avril Lavigne is engaged to musician Mod Sun

The original sk8r girl, Avril Lavigne, is on her way to the altar.

The Canadian singer announced on Thursday that she is engaged to fellow musician Maud Sun, who proposed to Lavigne in Paris in late March.

Lavigne, known for hits such as "Sc8er Boi", said the proposal was "right" in an exclusive interview with People: The two were on a boat in the River Seine with a clear view of the Eiffel Tower. Champagne flowed, a violinist played - and yet Lavigne said the proposal was a "total surprise".

Sun (whose real name is Derek Smith) shared photos of the proposal on Instagram with a poetic caption: "The day we met, I knew you were the one. Together are our days forever."

Lavigne and Son met while working on their latest album, "Love Sucks", which maintains the punk-pop aesthetic of Lavigne's earlier work. The "Girlfriends" singer stated that they "had a very strong unstoppable relationship" within the first week of writing together.

"I look forward to having fun, creating, working together, hanging out together, growing together," Lavigne told People. (Lavigne begins touring in late April, with Mod Sun as one of her supporting acts.)

Lavigne has been married twice before: to Even 41's Derrick Whibble and then to Nickelback frontman Chad Kroger. Mod Sun previously dated former Disney actress Bella Thorne.
