Dannii Minogue plans to get engaged this year. The "X Factor" judge, who began dating former rugby star Kris Smith last September, has hinted she wants to settle down with the 29-year-old British hunk in the next seven months.

Dannii, 37, is quoted by Britain's New! magazine as saying: "I think I'm looking at nesting this year... know what I mean?"

The couple have just returned from a lengthy visit to Dannii's native Australia, where they enjoyed spending time together away from the limelight.

She said: "I've never been happier in all my life."

It is rumored the couple plan to announce their engagement during the new series of British TV talent show "The X Factor," which will start in August.

Dannii's sister Kylie reportedly got engaged to her boyfriend of seven months, Andres Velencoso, last month during a romantic trip to New York.

A source said: "Andres told her he wanted to wake up next to her every day for the rest of his life. She asked him if she knew what he was saying and if he was serious, and when he said yes and that he wanted to marry her, she was thrilled."
