Celebrity news magazine Us Weekly also reported the engagement, citing an unnamed source, saying Trawick popped the question at a private dinner on his 40th birthday on Thursday, presenting the singer with a diamond ring. TMZ website reported the pair would be celebrating their engagement on Friday in Las Vegas.
Spears, 30, tweeted on Friday: "OMG. Last night Jason surprised me with the one gift I've been waiting for. Can't wait to show you! SO SO SO excited!!!!"
The Toxic singer has been dating her former agent Trawick since May 2010, after a turbulent few years during which she lost custody of her children and was forced to enter rehabilitation.
She was previously married to dancer Kevin Federline for two years, with whom she has two children. The singer also spontaneously married childhood friend Jason Alexander during a trip to Las Vegas in 2004. That marriage lasted just 55 hours.
