Sorry, ladies. Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin is off the market, a source close to him has confirmed.

The 33-year-old Brazilian will marry Ms Elaine Andriejanssen, an Indonesian Chinese based in Singapore, in France next month.

The source, a friend of the couple, said the pair threw an engagement party in Bali, Indonesia, last month.

Page Six, an entertainment website, had reported that Saverin was going to marry Miss Singapore Universe 2009 Rachel Kum on the French Riviera on June 27.

This is not true, said the source who asked not to be named. "Ed is definitely not marrying Rachel."

The source refused to reveal more about the fiancee, except that she is living in Singapore with her family.

Saverin, who has been living in Singapore since 2009, renounced his US citizenship in 2012 and is said to be worth US$5.1 billion (S$6.9 million). (ika)(+++)
