He was arrested in Georgia this summer for kidnapping and assault.

But that has not kept Rick Ross - whose real name in William Leonard Roberts II - from falling in love and getting engaged to curvy 21-year-old pinup Lira Mercer, according to TMZ.

On Friday the site reported the 39-year-old rapper has given the model an 11 carat diamond ring worth $350,000. The two have been together for only a few months, it was added.
