The country superstar confirmed to theboot.com that her boyfriend and NHL star Mike Fisher popped the question over the weekend. Here's Beville Darden with all the details.
The rumors are confirmed! Carrie Underwood is indeed engaged to her boyfriend of over a year, NHL hockey star Mike Fisher.
"It's true," Mike told the Ottowa Citizen newspaper Monday morning. "We're both obviously excited and very happy and so, exciting times for sure."
Mike says he popped the question on Sunday but wouldn't give any
further details. His teammate Chris Neil says the engagement was "a
long time coming."
"There are going to be a lot of broken hearts here in Ottawa, all those
girls who are in love with Mikey," he said. "But he's marrying an
awesome girl. It's unbelievable for him."
We can guess there are a lot of broken hearts amongst the guys, too!
Carrie met her future husband backstage at a concert in March 2008. She
kept mum on their relationship until the release of her new album,
'Play On,' in November. The CD's liner notes include a sweet shout-out
to her beau: "Thank you #12," she writes, referring to Mike's jersey
number. "You are the most amazing addition to my life! You are such a
wonderful person and have had such an amazing hand in the building of
this album and in the growth of me as a person. I love you so much! You
make my life better in every way! I thank God for you every day."
