Alec Baldwin engaged to 28-year-old yoga instructor

Engaged ... Alec Baldwin, and Hilaria Thomas.

Actor Alec Baldwin has popped the question to his girlfriend, a yoga instructor who is 26 years his junior.

The 30 Rock star has been dating 28-year-old Hilaria Thomas for about a year.

"Yes, it's true!" Baldwin's spokesperson told 3m360

"Alec proposed to Hilaria this weekend and we're all excited for the newly-engaged couple. Alec's birthday is tomorrow. Great way to celebrate!"

Baldwin turns 54 this week.

The couple both thanked well-wishers on Twitter, while Baldwin's daughter Ireland tweeted: "Congratulations to @AlecBaldwin an @hilariathomas on getting engaged! Love you guys.

"I'm going to be a flower girl."

Thomas was recently photographed in New York City wearing a giant diamond ring on her left hand.

During an interview on CNN earlier this year, Baldwin spoke about his joy in meeting the New York yoga teacher.

"Right before I met Hilaria, I ... lay in my bed and [said] 'this is it'.

"I'm going to be alone for the rest of my life. I'm going to die alone in this apartment, in this bed.

"I'll have my friends. I'll have Twitter. I'll have Words with Friends. I'll have my New Yorker subscription. I'll have my table at Elio's.

"You know, I'll have my quiet life. I'll have my quiet Manhattan life.

"And then right when I put it all on the shelf and it was over, and then I walked into a restaurant downtown on Gramercy Park.

"And I met this woman who is probably one of the greatest people I have ever met in my life as a person."

Baldwin was married to actress Kim Basinger from 1993 to 2002, when the pair went through a very public divorce.

Baldwin also told CNN having more children would be "heaven".

"As my friends said to me, when you have children, typically in a second marriage ... you must always remember that you make sure they attend a college where the commencement ceremonies are held in a facility with a wheelchair accessible ramp."
