Actor Michelle Williams is reportedly engaged to financier Andrew Youmans, Us Weekly reported.
Williams has been wearing a heart-shaped diamond ring on her left hand ring finger for some time now. But a source close to Williams told E! News back on January 9, "It is very important to Michelle to keep her private life private and out of the press. She has been wearing a heart-shaped diamond ring for awhile but doesn't want to confirm or deny whether they are engaged."
Us Weekly cited multiple unnamed sources for the news. INSIDER reached out to Williams' representatives, who said that they have neither confirmed nor denied this story for any publication.
Reports first surfaced that Williams and Youmans were a couple when they were spotted in Rome together while Williams was filming "All the Money in the World," according to Us Weekly. The two have yet to make an official public appearance together.
Youmans has built a successful life for himself in the business world. He studied the Toyota Production System extensively and had research on TPS published by the Harvard School of Business. He founded the firm Yomo Consulting to help other companies utilize TPS methodologies before leaving the company in 2011. According to People magazine, Youmans is currently a business investor.
Williams and has kept a pretty low profile when it comes to her dating life. She was previously linked to actor Jason Segel, director Spike Jonze, and, of course, the late actor Heath Ledger, with whom she had her 12-year-old daughter Matilda. Williams is often spotted with her best friend and fellow actress Busy Phillips on the red carpet and has called her "the love of my life," according to Us Weekly.
