The outing comes just a day after she announced her pending nuptials to the 65-year-old rocker she has dated on and off for seven years.  

Posting a hand-drawn picture of the pair holding hands, Ryan simply wrote: 'ENGAGED!'

The couple first started dating in 2011, before breaking up in 2014, getting back together later that year, ending things again in 2015, and reconciling for a final time in 2017.

Prior to their reconciliation, the 65-year-old performer told Howard Stern that Meg 'hated' him.  

'Oh, women hate me,' he said. 'I loved Meg Ryan. She hates me to death. She just doesn't want anything to do with me. And I can't blame her.' 

The Hurt So Good singer also claimed that Meg was turned off by 'childlike ways.'

'I throw fits, I gripe, I complain. I'm moody. Every bad thing that a fella can be, that's me,' he told Stern. 

But according to PEOPLE, it was the long distance that tore the couple apart. 

'She lives in New York and he resides in Indiana,' a source told the magazine. 'It was the long distance that ultimately was the cause.'
