@junejulyfeb: Sorry for the late reply. I don't think that you have to worry too much about this because, it's not really a common saying. I actually had to look up the transcript of the episode to fully understand it.
But normally, you would use it in a situation like this:
A: I just got a new car!
B: That's really great. And while we're on the subject of news, I just got engaged!
In other words, it's another way of saying "While we're talking about important/interesting things in our lives, I would like to say that..."
However, I would probably say "Speaking of good news". Or you could simply say "While we're on that subject."

@Sunchips18: i saw it on FRIENDS : Season one Episode 4 : Rachel with her former girlfriends chatting , one of them said it showing her engagement ring ~

Oh, I see. In that case, she's saying "while we're talking about interesting things that are happening in our lives".
