Bobby Brown is in love, and is reportedly ready to settle down with his manager/girlfriend Alicia Etheredge after confirming recently that the pair are an item.
The R&B singer confirmed the relationship to Sister 2 Sister Magazine recently, and despite his failed marriage to pop star Whitney Houston, he says it's gonna work this time around.
"That one; the relationship is gonna work 'cause I'm gonna make it work," he told the mag.
His new boo, Etheredge, has always downplayed their relationship as longtime friends and business partners.
In an interview last year, she said that Brown is a big romantic who believes in love.
"I think that Bobby is a big romantic and really does believe in love," she said. "His parents are still married after all these years and I think that he will find that again."
There is no official confirmation that the couple is engaged, but it does seem that it's not far away.
Brown ended his 14-year marriage to Whitney Houston last year. He has a 14-year-old daughter with the singer named Bobbi Kristina.
