Proper Spelling of Fiancé(e)

When describing an engaged male, it is fiancé.
When describing an engaged female, it is fiancée.

The differentiation is due to to the grammatical gender of the French language.

This is the most booring post in the entire history of the internet. You should be proud of that.

Not really, because I needed to know how it was spelled. Thanks!

Regarding comment #1: considering that you can't even make one comment without a misspelling (it's "boring," not "booring"), maybe you should pay more attention to posts like this.
