"It was just a typical night at the studio, but then again, not so typical cause I did something extra special, out of the ordinary," Green, 41, tells Reports

. "I went and purchased a ring that we had seen together, maybe four or five months or so prior. I went back and purchased the ring, and I just kind of had it stashed away in some old equipment.

And I said, 'Will you reach in there and grab something for me?'”

To James' surprise, Green had a special (and shiny) gift waiting for her.

"It was the most beautiful diamond ring I had ever seen in my life. It was lit up by a light," says James. "I said, 'What is that?' He just looked at me and said, 'Well...?' And I was just like 'Oh my goodness.'

" Truth be told, it's not something we wanted to promote ," says the singer. "We're a collective power together because our private life is sacred.

But you know what though, maybe it's time. Maybe it is time for the world to know that I have a very secure situation and a loving woman supporting me the entire way ."
