Once Upon a Time's Emilie de Ravin has announced her engagement

'So excited!'

Once Upon a Time's Emilie de Ravin is engaged to writer and director Eric Bilitch.

The TV star, who is also known for her roles in Lost and Roswell, took to Instagram to share the happy news with her 336,000 followers, posting a picture of her incredible diamond and writing alongside, 'So excited!!! I love you @ericbilitch 💍'.

Eric then shared the same picture to his own account, adding, 'And the best big hand 😍 @emiliede_ravin'.

The engagement isn't the only happy news for the couple - back in March 2016, they welcomed their first child, a daughter named Vera Audrey, together.

The pair revealed that they were expecting back in October 2015, with Emilie saying at the time, 'Tis truly a dream come true and we could not be happier'.

After Vera's birth, both Emilie and Eric announced the arrival of their daughter with a tweet.

She wrote, 'Welcome to the big wide world! Vera Audrey de Ravin-Bilitch born March 12th 2016. Couldn't be happier! So in love with our little girl!', whilst Eric retweeted her message and agreed, 'Madly in love with our gorgeous girl. And her momma is the most wonderful woman on earth! Could not be happier! 😍'

A month later, Emilie shared a picture of their gorgeous girl on Twitter, saying, 'Hello world! Thank you for a wonderful first month. Everything is amazing here! Love, Vera'.

Emilie has been married once before, to actor Josh Janowicz, with whom she tied the knot on 19 June 2003. The pair separated twice during their relationship, before confirming their divorce in 2014.

We imagine it'll be a while before Emilie and Eric share any details of their upcoming wedding, but one thing's for sure - when a woman who plays Belle from Beauty and the Beast says 'I do', that dress is going to be pretty darn spectacular...
