‘Idol’ Underwood to Marry Her Senator

CarrieUnderwoodMikeFisherThe “American Idol” and the Canadian hockey star are getting married.

Carrie Underwood’s spokeswoman and her hockey beau himself confirmed the engagement after about a year of dating.

“I’m happy to confirm that Carrie Underwood is engaged to Mike Fisher, and the couple couldn’t be happier,” Underwood’s rep told Us magazine. “No wedding date has been set at this time.”

Mike Fisher, a center for the Ottawa Senators, confirmed it himself for the Ottawa Sun, saying, “It’s true. We’re both obviously excited and very happy. I’m not sure exactly when (the wedding will take place).”

Fisher’s friends and teammates were happy for him, and giving him a hard time almost immediately.

“It’s great. It’s a long time coming. There’s going to be a lot of broken hearts here in Ottawa with all those girls that are in love with Mikey,” Senators winger Chris Neil told the Sun. “He’s met an awesome girl. We’re ecstatic for him.”

Underwood, was erroneously reported to have been moving in with Fisher earlier this year, tells Self magazine in next month’s issue that she’d love to have a small family.

“Not that I have a husband to have one with yet, but someday I’d like a family — not a big one, but not a small one either,” she told the magazine. “Two kids is good, three is fine. Four? Somebody’s getting something done, because we ain’t having five!”

This could be the best U.S.-Canadian pairing since Will Arnett and Amy Poehler!
