In addition to becoming a wife, DioGuardi will also be becoming a stepmother as the 34-year-old McCuddy has a daughter from from a previous relationship, according to the New York Times.

Prior to Tuesday, DioGuardi had dodged attempts to confirm the engagement

"Thank you.. this year is going to be an interesting year, we'll see... [but] I can neither confirm or deny any of those things," DioGuardi had told an In Touch Weekly reporter who had attempted to congratulate DioGuardi on the engagement and ask about her wedding plans during a media conference call with reporters last Thursday.
