In February they welcomed a son via surrogacy and now Greg Berlanti and Robbie Rogers have ended 2016 by announcing their engagement.

The TV producer behind hits such as The Flash and Supergirl, and the soccer player who's a winger for LA Galaxy shared their happy news Saturday via social media.

'A few days ago.... I got engaged to my soulmate,' Berlanti, 44, wrote alongside a photo of himself and Rogers in a park-like setting with a string quartet in the background.

'Thanks to the friends and family who helped me find my way to this moment in my blessed life,' he added.

Rogers, 29, also posted the same picture on his Facebook.

He said he felt 'extremely lucky and blessed to end 2016 engaged to the love of my life.'

In love: The TV producer and the soccer pro have been dating since 2013

Berlanti and Rogers started dating in 2013.

In February, son Caleb was born using a surrogate and the two men have embraced the joys of parenthood.

'It's just really such a gift and he brings so much to our lives,' Rogers told OUT in a June interview.

'I feel like I'm learning so much from him, like spending Sundays and family days and doing stuff with just the three of us has been so amazing. He's been teaching us lessons and we're excited since every week it's something new,' the soccer pro added.

Back in February, Berlanti described the birth of his son as the realization of a dream.

'Achieving this dream would not have been possible without the love and support of my wonderful family and surrogate, incredible boyfriend, amazing friends and co-workers that encouraged me and helped me on this remarkable journey,' Berlanti wrote on Instagram.

'There is nothing I've wanted more, or waited for longer, than to be a father,' he said.
