Kylie Minogue and Olivier Martinez, pictured in 2003, dated for five years before splitting in 2007.
Olivier Martinez has yet to confirm his recent engagement to Halle Berry, but that isn't stopping his ex from publicly congratulating the couple.
Kylie Minogue took to Twitter soon after the news broke Wednesday to express her well wishes.
"Congrats to Olivier Martinez and Halle Berry!! #wedding," the Australian pop star, 43, tweeted.
Minogue dated the French model-turned-actor for five years before they split in 2007. The singer has spoken fondly of Martinez, whom she once called "most honorable man I have ever met" for remaining by her side during her battle against breast cancer.
Martinez, 46, began dating Berry, 45, during the end of summer in 2010 when the two worked together on the upcoming thriller "Dark Tides." They first went public with their romance in September of that same year.
The "Unfaithful" actor has remained by Berry's side throughout her very public custody battle with ex Gabriel Aubry, the father of the actress' 3-year-old daughter Nahla.
According to Us Weekly, Martinez proposed to Berry over the holidays with an emerald-and-diamond ring from Gurhan.
A rep for the jeweler confirmed the engagement, saying the sparkler is a "one-of-a-kind" piece.
"Halle had given up on being married, but she trusts Olivier. He makes her feel safe. He's a keeper!" a source told the magazine.
This will be Berry's third time down the aisle. She married former baseball player David Justice in 1993 and divorced after four years. She then wed R&B singer Eric Benet in 2001, only to split two years later.
