Is Lady Gaga one step closer to tying the knot with longtime boyfriend Taylor Kinney? The couple reportedly had a small commitment ceremony and exchanged rings, a source close to the actor says, and plan to marry officially sometime next year.
Kinney's Chicago Fire co-star Sophia Bush added fuel to the rumors a couple of weeks ago by posting a picture on Instagram of Kinney wearing a ring, complete with the hashtags #NotForTheShow and #ThatsHisPersonalRing.
Furthermore, the Daily Star reports that Gaga, 28, and Kinney, 33, gathered friends and family for a small ceremony pledging their devotion to each other. Citing unnamed sources, the publication claims the couple plan to officially wed next year.

Neither the singer nor the actor has commented on the reports.

Gaga and Kinney have been dating since 2011, but manage to keep their relationship far away from the limelight. The "Poker Face" singer told Howard Stern in a 2013 interview that the pair are "very protective" of their romance. "We treat each other with a lot of care, and we're good to one another," she said. Gaga also revealed in an interview earlier this year that her mother has been pushing her towards marriage and children.
Of course, fans are likely already speculating what kind of wedding dress the style icon will wear to walk down the aisle!
