Nicole Scherzinger might be headed for the altar—sooner rather than later!

The former Pussycat Doll's longtime boyfriend Lewis Hamilton recently hinted about a possible engagement for the couple.

"We've been together for five years, which is quite a milestone really," the Formula One driver reportedly told The Sun.

And just when does he plan to pop the question? "…hopefully in the near future," he said. "Maybe before we get to six years."

We'll keep our fingers crossed! There have, of course, been rumors before that Nicole, 34, and Lewis, 28, were headed for marriage. Until recently, however, the couple has always denied these reports.

"They came out with some rumor the other day. Everyone was congratulating us, which was hilarious," Nicole said in a 2011 interview with The Telegraph. "We congratulated each other on our engagement when we weren't even engaged. "

"We're happy where we are right now, which is boyfriend and girlfriend," she said at the time. "Just really happy."

"Both of us believe in hard work and determination," she added. "And both of us really appreciate what we have because of that."

Nicole also credits her longtime love with helping her get past her battle with bulimia. In an episode of VH1's Behind the Music that aired in 2012, the singer said Lewis "gave me the courage to kind of end that disorder and that disease."

"He made me feel beautiful for who I am and not what pant size I'm wearing and that helped a lot," she said.

Sounds like a keeper! One thing's for sure: Dating or soon-to-be engaged, these two make for one cute couple.
