Prince Jackson — Michael Jackson‘s son — just put a ring on it after 8 years with his college sweetheart, Molly Schirmang.

The 28-year-old shared the big news Tuesday on Instagram, dropping a series of sweet snaps with his fiancée and writing … “8 years down ♾️ to go. Molly and I have spent a lot of time together and made incredible memories.”

He continued … “We’ve traveled the world, graduated and grown so much together. I’m excited for this next chapter in our lives as we continue to grow and make great memories. I love you babs 😘.”

Prince and Molly have kept their relationship relatively low-key over the years, but fans know she’s been a constant by his side from college at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles to vacations around the globe and family gatherings with the Jackson clan.

Now, after nearly a decade together, they’re taking the next step and the King of Pop’s eldest son is clearly very over the moon about making Molly officially part of the family.
