Models Anja Rubik and Sasha Knezevic have become engaged over Christmas. The two top models have even worked side-by-side on campaigns for Gap and DKNY in the past, and now are hoping to wed. Next Models confirmed the news via Twitter on Tuesday. Anja is currently ranked #3 on models.com, and will be fronting the Fendi campaign this season (see preview here). Sasha, who used to be a professional basketball player, has had his fair share of modelling gigs too, for Perry Ellis, as well as editing 25 magazine.

We were spending Christmas in Vienna this year because Sasha grew up in Vienna and his family is there and my family was coming over. And just two days before he came over, we went to "Dance of the Vampires," the one that Roman Polanski directed [NB: I originally thought she meant Polanski’s 1967 film, aka "The Fearless Vampire Killers" – on which the musical is based]. It’s an opera. I wanted to see it for such a long time and Sasha organised the tickets, so it was really nice for Christmas. And then we went out and we walked around, it was really foggy the whole night and then he finally proposed, which was funny... It was pretty incredible. In the middle of the street. In the middle of the night. And then we went and had dinner in this restaurant that was on the rooftop of a building. And it was really, really nice. Apparently he was carrying the ring around for a while. And that day we fought all the day long. We were preparing the whole house for Christmas and there were all these things to be done and I had to cook and I had to do this and that and the Christmas decorations… I couldn’t find the ones I liked. So it was totally dramatic the whole day. I thought, ‘I’m going to kill him’. I was like, ‘I think this was my last Christmas ever’ [with him]. And he said ‘I picked this day on purpose, because although we have our fights, we’ve been together and ra ra ra ...’ And he’s right.

The couple hope to marry in May or June of this year.
