NASHVILLE, Dec. 4 (UPI) -- Jana Kramer and Michael Caussin are engaged.
The 31-year-old actress and 27-year-old football player got engaged on Kramer's birthday Tuesday. The couple have been together since August, and announced their engagement in a statement Wednesday.
"It was a beautiful surprise," Kramer said. "He was the perfect gentleman. Nervous, on one knee, and surrounded by some of the people that love us the most."
