Kelsea Bellerini had a very special Christmas that she won't ever forget!

The country crooner revealed that she's engaged to her longtime beau Morgan Evans and spilled all of the details about her romantic proposal on Instagram.

"This morning, 9 months and 13 days later, he got down on one knee in the kitchen while I was burning pancackes and asked me to marry him," she wrote next to a photo of the newly engaged duo hugging.

Ballerini also managed to show off her brand new diamond sparkler (which was custom designed specifically for her by her soon-to-be hubby) in the sweet image.

"Loving him has been the greatest gift of my life. And now I get to do it for life. #HeCalledDibs." Now that hashtag is too cute for words!

Michael Phelps Is Married! Olympic Swimmer and Nicole Johnson Secretly Say "I Do" in Private Summer Wedding

Michael Phelps did a whole lot more than just win gold medals this summer.

E! News can confirm the Team USA athlete married his fiancé Nicole Johnson all the way back on June 13 in Maricopa County, Ariz.



The marriage license was issued June 9, 2016. According to TMZ, who first broke the news, the wedding was officiated by Michael's agent and longtime friend Peter Carlisle.

 On the actual wedding day, Nicole cryptically posted on social media, "Such a memorable night with my lil fambam."

In the weeks and months leading up to the romantic ceremony, Nicole shared a few details of what fans could expect on the big day. As it turns out, the proud mom appears to have left one big point out: The celebration had already occurred.

"It'll be small and intimate for the wedding, and then we're throwing a massive bash for everyone in the states," she shared with Access Hollywood. "I've been planning as we've been leading up to this, so I think I have the wedding in order and now it's on to the party for the fun."

With Michael retired from swimming, the couple is now focused on spending even more time together as a family.

The pair welcomed a baby boy named Boomer Phelps in May. In just a matter of months, he has already experienced his first Olympics and met more than a few famous faces.

As for mom and dad, they are also excited to enjoy the next chapter of their lives as husband and wife.

"Now we get to have fun," Nicole shared with Cosmopolitan. "We get to enjoy parts of life that everybody gets to on a daily basis that we had to step away from so Michael could go and do what he needed to do."

She added, "We're still learning what date night is and we're balancing with Boomer. We love going to dinner. We love being home and cooking together. We're homebodies."

Congratulations to the couple on their special day.

Fendi: the prime rib is the new cold shoulder

In the afterglow of the July couture show, staged on a glassed-over Trevi fountain, Fendi is a serious fashion force right now. This week’s catwalk show took looks that were hovering on the edges of our vision and pulled them into focus. Knitted sock boots put a pretty spin on a sellout piece from the cult Vetements line;
pinafore-shape dresses looked grownup and elegant; handbags boasted the ornate guitar-strap handles that will dominate in 2017. But the central message was in the sweaters – simple and long-sleeved but cropped or slashed to show the lower ribs.

Say goodbye to the cold shoulder, and get ready for the prime rib. This trend is unlikely to have the same mass appeal – the allure of the cold-shoulder being precisely that this is a body part normal women feel confident in revealing, which doesn’t translate to the torso – but the look certainly seemed to make an impression on Fendi front-rower Serena Williams, who sported an ab-flashing sweater for her next fashion week appearance at Versace.

Naya Rivera: I Had an Abortion During Glee

It's no secret that Naya Rivera is an open book.

In fact, in the actress' soon-to-be-published memoir, Sorry Not Sorry: Dreams, Mistakes and Growing Up, the 29-year-old TV star reveals for the first time that she got an abortion in late 2010. Naya discovered she was pregnant just weeks after breaking up with actor Ryan Dorsey, whom she later wed in 2014 and is now the father of her 11-month-old baby boy, Josey Dorsey.

Naya chose not share the news with Ryan at the time, instead choosing to focus on her career. The actress says she terminated the pregnancy during a day off from filming an episode of Glee.

"It was very scary to open up about everything," Naya says in People's Sept. 5 issue, out Friday. "It's not something a lot of people talk about, but I think they should. I know some people might read it and say, 'What the Hell?' But I hope someone out there gets something out of it."

After the news was made public (and received some backlash), Naya took to Twitter Tuesday to address her past. "I set out to write a book that was true to myself and would hopefully help others along the way. Media will always distort anything," she tweeted. " I hope that you all enjoy my story and respect my good intentions in sharing them with you. Xoxo #sorrynotsorry."

In Sorry Not Sorry, Naya also reveals that she battled anorexia during her teens. "By the time I was a sophomore, I started feeling that what had begun as a game had maybe gone too far. I just avoided food at all costs," she writes in the book, as excerpted by People. "If my mom had packed a lunch for me, I'd either trash it or find some excuse to give it away." It wasn't until she began writing a memoir, Naya says, that she realized the seriousness of her eating disorder. "I was so young and it just seemed to be the norm. Everyone was going through similar stuff," she explains. "I had no way of knowing if I was going through it worse. I was juggling my feelings and it makes me sad that there are girls still going through that 15 years after I went through it."

Naya's memoir is out Sept. 13, and she'll be saving a copy for her son. "I hope Josey will read it one day," she tells People. "I hope it gives him a better perspective on the issues women face."

When Naya's book deal was announced in 2015, her publisher described it as a "warts-and-all account" of her young life. It includes "candid thoughts on topics ranging from dating...to the challenges of being mixed-race in Hollywood." As a source told E! News at the time, the memoir is "very honest and real. She talks about growing up poor and all the trouble she had when she was younger. It's things that a lot of woman can relate to...She talks about having to choose between her career and school and she shares all the crazy jobs she had before landing Glee."

"I've done a lot of living," she tells People. "I'm a 79-year-old trapped in a 29-year-old's body."
