Carrie Underwood is engaged to NHL hockey player Mike Fisher of the Ottawa Senators. No date has been set for the wedding yet. Fisher confirmed the engagement to The Toronto Sun:
Senators heartthrob Mike Fisher and his country singer superstar girlfriend Carrie Underwood are engaged to be married.
Fisher confirmed their engagement just moments ago as the Senators prepared for tonight's game against the Boston Bruins at Scoriabank Place. Responding to questions, he said he popped the question to Underwood on Sunday, but declined to offer any other details at this point.
"It's true," said Fisher. "We're both obviously excited and very happy."
Senators teammate Chris Neil said Fisher called him not long after popping the question.
"I think it's great. It's a long time coming. There's going to be a lot of broken hearts in Ottawa with all those girls who are in love with Mikey," said Neil.
Underwood's publicity agent Jessie Schmidt also confirmed the engagement. She said no date has been set for the wedding, and also could not provide any further details.
The blogosphere had been alive and buzzing since Sunday with rumours the celebrity couple had become engaged. The rumours began spreading after a friend of Underwood's family congratulated the former American Idol and the Senators centre on their upcoming marriage on his Twitter page last night.
