Sophie Monk engaged to long-time friend Jimmy Esebag

Sophie Monk has announced her engagement to long time friend Jimmy Esebag. Monk describes Esebag, her senior by more than 20 years, as a male version of herself. “I'm marrying a male version of myself, which is dangerous but good,” she said.

Monk announced the engagement on 2Day FM breakfast radio, where she is co-hosting with Kyle Sandilands while regular presenter Jackie O is on maternity leave, reports News.com.au.

“I got engaged, and I kept it quiet so no one's heard much about him,” said Monk on the show. “He's a keeper. It feels right - I think you know when you know.”
