Janet Jackson has revealed she tied the knot - last year.

As rumours circulated that the singer was set to wed her billionaire boyfriend Wissam Al Mana, the pair issued a statement announcing that they were in fact already husband and wife.

They told Entertainment Tonight: "Last year we were married in a quiet, private and beautiful ceremony."

The statement went on: "The rumours regarding an extravagant wedding are simply not true.

"Our wedding gifts to one another were contributions to our respective favourite children's charities."

It's not known where or on exactly what date Janet, 46, and Wissam, 37, held the ceremony.

Together Again singer Janet has been married twice before, to dancer and director Rene Elizondo Jr, and singer James DeBarge.
