Tolkien, Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile and The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones actress Lily Collins has announced her engagement with some adorable photos.

The actress and daughter of musician Phil Collins posted a pair of photos to Instagram of her and now fiancé Charlie McDowell out on a hike. In one of the photos, the couple share a kiss, while she shows off her ring in both of them.

"I've been waiting my lifetime for you and I can't wait to spend our lifetime together..." she captioned her first post, with the second reading: "The purest joy I've ever felt..."

Charlie shared the same photo of Lily on his page, and added his own caption that reads: "In a time of uncertainty and darkness you have illuminated my life. I will forever cherish my adventure with you."

Lily Collins' career could have gone very differently, as she revealed a few years back that she had auditioned for the super popular teen drama Gossip Girl. Obviously she didn't get it, but she has admitted that it isn't necessarily a bad thing.

"I wanted to be in it so badly," she said at the time. "I thought at the time it was the end of the world [but] well I would have got pigeon-holed, have had to move to New York, leave high school and be signed away for six years. I wouldn't have done the films I've done."
