Kellie Pickler has announced her engagement to songwriter Kyle Jacobs. He proposed to her on June 15 during a Florida beach vacation, according to an interview with People magazine. Pickler and Jacobs met about two and a-half years ago. She told the publication the proposal fell on the anniversary of her late grandmother's birthday. "It turned out to be the most amazing day of my life," she said. "My whole world changed. We both feel like we got my grandmother's blessing." Jacobs' songwriting credits include Garth Brooks' "More Than a Memory" and Tim McGraw's "Still," as well as cuts by Trace Adkins, Jo Dee Messina, Craig Morgan and Clay Walker, among others.
