POP star Anastacia is to wed her BODYGUARD — after he told her he wanted to “protect her forever”.
Burly Wayne Newton, 38, from Beckenham, Kent, proposed to the US star after guarding her on several tours.
The romance mirrors the hit film Bodyguard — where Whitney Houston’s character falls for her minder, played by Kevin Costner.
A friend of Anastacia and Wayne said yesterday: “She fell for him hook, line and sinker. It’s very sexy to have someone looking after you.
“He went down on bended knee and said he couldn’t imagine a life where he wasn’t protecting her. She said yes instantly. They are so much in love it is unbelievable.”
Martial arts expert Wayne, became a shoulder for Anastacia, 33, to cry on after she battled breast cancer.
He left his girlfriend Lorraine Elston — the mum of his two children, aged nine and two — for the singer in March.
He has moved into her Beverly Hills home and they will wed next year, splitting their time between the US and Britain.
Oh yeah, and in other news Anastacia is actually 38, not 33 like other sources have said. (I'd say she's aging nicely.)
As you can see this article says 38 unlike the other which said 33...
US singer ANASTACIA will wed her British bodyguard next year (06). The 38-year-old star fell for minder WAYNE NEWTON, also 38, after he protected her on a number of tours.
