How is Michael Bolton supposed to live without Nicollette Sheridan? Apparently, he's not.

The "When a Man Loves a Woman" singer popped the question to the Desperate Housewives star over the weekend in the Bahamas, Sheridan publicist Nanci Ryder confirmed to E! News.

Sheridan, 42, and Bolton, 53, who dated for several years in the 1990s, rekindled their romance last year, after Sheridan called off her engagement to actor Niklas Soderblom in October.

In January, Bolton hinted to the New York Daily News that the couple was considering taking their relationship to the next level.

"Nicollette and I are very serious about each other," Bolton said. "I am very committed. It is a very special time in my life. I have a good feeling about the future."

Sheridan was previously wed to Harry Hamlin from 1991 to 1993. She has also been linked to Leif Garrett, whom she met when she was 15 and dated for six years.

Bolton was married for 15 years to Maureen McGuire, with whom he has three daughters. The couple divorced in 1990.
