The Brazilian model and American football star are set to wed after Tom got down on one knee and proposed with a diamond solitaire ring in Los Angeles on Friday (09.01.09).
A source said: "He asked and she accepted. The couple are discussing a huge fashionista event in the spring or a more intimate and quicker ceremony in Costa Rica, where Gisele has a home."
Gisele's agent has refused to confirm the happy news, saying: "We don't comment on our clients' private lives."
Rumours of impending nuptials were quashed in December but the model has now confirmed the pair plan to tie the knot in spring 2010.
Gisele - who has previously dated 'Revolutionary Road' actor Leonardo DiCaprio and professional surfer Kelly Slater - allegedly began her relationship with Tom when he was still romantically involved with actress Bridget Moynahan.
Bridget fell pregnant just before the pair split in December 2006 and gave birth to their son John Edward Thomas the following August.
