After very public problems with her first husband, marital problems that were so deep they caused country singer Sara Evans to drop out of Dancing with the Stars a couple of years ago, the singer is now engaged.

Evans and boyfriend Jay Barker, a former football player with the University of Arkansas, plan to wed – though a date was not immediately known, people.com reports.

“The couple are enjoying their engagement and look forward to their upcoming nuptials,” Lori Genes, Evans’ publicist, said.

Evans and her first husband, Craig Schelske, officially divorced last September. The two had three children together. Barker has four children from a previous marriage. The couple apparently began dating in November of last year.
