Christina Aguilera and fiancé Matthew Rutler have been engaged since 2014, and this Valentine’s Day, they celebrated their 12th engagement anniversary.
The “Dirty” singer took to social media to share a carousel of the duo’s memorable moments over the years.
Her main picture featured the pair romantically enjoying a boat ride, while taking in the sun’s rays.
Other shots included them posing by the Eiffel tower on a night out in Paris, comically going on a carousel ride together, and the entertainer gushing over a sweet bouquet from her partner.
Christina captioned the set: “Happy valentine’s day to the world’s best sailing buddy.”
Fans loved the wholesome carousel and flocked to the comments. One person wrote: “Best couple. Happy Valentine’s Day my Love,” while another fan wrote: “MOM AND DAD.” A third follower continued: “Imagine your wife is Christina Aguilera. Good job mate.”

Despite Christina filing for divorce from her ex-husband Jordan Bratman, she revealed that she didn’t rule love out thanks to her budding relationship with Matthew at the time.

Christina shared that she was still “wholeheartedly” a believer in marriage. She added: “I know one day I’ll be able to feel that again for someone. That idea will never die.”
The actress has publicly gushed about her partner and expressed: “Matthew is a special person. We had a really strong friendship on the movie. He’s the kind of person you could spend hours on the phone talking to and all of a sudden, it’s daylight.”

They got engaged on Valentine’s Day in 2014, and in August, they welcomed their daughter Summer Rain. She is also a mother to her son Max Liron Bratman with her ex-husband in 2008.
As for when the couple will finally tie the knot, Christina is not in a hurry. She told People in 2015: “Having just moved into a beautiful new home we call ‘the Sanctuary,’ having a baby, and now being so excited to get back to work [on The Voice], I have my hands full, and am not in a rush to set a date. I want to plan it and cherish the moment, while not feeling rushed.”
