An aircraft engine assembly including an annular structure surrounding a central casing and mechanically connected to the central casing by the intermediary of a mounting mechanism. To each of the first and second engine mounts is associated a reinforcing structure forming a shear plane, fixedly connected: in an area of the annular structure at a first anchoring point; in an area of the fan casing at a second anchoring point; and in an area of a structural arm or of the intermediate casing at a third anchoring point. The structure extends along a radial imaginary plane passing through an anchoring point of the mount on the fan casing.
