Actress Keira Knightley attends the “A Dangerous Method” UK Gala film premiere at The Mayfair Hotel on January 31, 2012 in London, England.
British actress Keira Knightley is engaged to marry her musician boyfriend, James Righton.
Publicist Sara Keene confirmed the upcoming "I do's" to ABC News on Friday.
The 27-year-old star of “The Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise and “Atonement” has reportedly been dating Righton, who is the keyboardist for the British indie band, Klaxons for awhile.
The BBC reported mum is the word on plans for the upcoming wedding. "We are not discussing any further details," said Keene.
The couple have been dating about 15 months, according to the BBC, and were introduced by TV personality Alexa Chung.

If you didn't know about the couple, you are not alone. The pair live in London and rarely attend public events together.
Knightley, who starred in “Bend It Like Beckham,” received an Oscar nomination for her role in “Pride & Prejudice” in 2006. On the set, she met co-star, actor Rupert Friend, whom she dated.
The actors were together five years and split in January 2011.
What's next for Knightley? The soon-to-be bride goes back to the US to start filming “Can a Song Save Your Life?” in which she plays, coincidentally, a wannabe singer.
