Destiny Child’s: Michelle Williams Is Engaged To Pastor Chad Johnson

After a year together, Johnson, 40 recently proposed to the Destiny’s Child singer Michelle Williams, 37 — and the pair can’t wait to walk down the aisle.

Williams met her husband-to-be in March of 2017, when she attended a spiritual retreat in Arizona run by Johnson, a pastor and life coach.


In July — while on their first actual date at a wedding in the Dominican Republic — the pair shared their first kiss and took their relationship to the next level. Much of their courtship happened long distance, as Johnson was traveling for work. But both felt they had found a potential life partner.

When Johnson knew he wanted to propose, he planned an elaborate ploy to involve Williams’s family in popping the question.

Last month, he secretly traveled to her native Rockford, Illinois, to ask for her clan’s blessing — and videotaped the entire trip!

Sure enough, Johnson got down on one knee and proffered a 5-carat engagement ring from L.A. jeweler Denis Mahgerefteh. Johnson popped the question less than a month ago, but the couple will have a short engagement — and plan to get married this summer.
