Carrie Underwood is engaged to hockey player Mike Fisher of the Ottawa Senators. He shared the news with his hometown newspaper the Ottawa Sun today (12/21), adding that he proposed yesterday. Underwood’s publicist Jessie Schmidt says the news is true: “I’m happy to confirm Carrie Underwood is engaged to Mike Fisher, and the couple couldn’t be happier. No wedding date has been set at this time.”
The Sun reports that Underwood was in Ottawa through the weekend and cheered on Fisher’s team as they beat the Minnesota Wild Saturday. The couple has been dating for approximately a year.
Also this week, Billboard named Underwood’s Some Hearts the Top Country Album of the Decade.
