Guess what?  Gary is getting married!!  Her name is Jennifer Pittman.  She's 30 and she and Gary have been dating for a year now.  To propose, Gary got his kids in on it.  He gathered them, the nanny, and Jennifer together in a room and presented Jennifer with a card.  She opened the envelope to find a picture of Gary and the kids on the front of the card.  Upon opening the card, she saw the words: "Will you marry us?"  Jennifer began to cry, then Gary presented her with a diamond ring.  The kids started dancing around the room.

Here are some of Gary's comments:

"It was was on the sweetest things ever in my life".  He also said, "I had the romantic dinner at F. Scott's lined up, and it occurred to me to include my kids.  They love her a great deal, and it made sense for them to be a part of it."  About the age difference between Gary, 42 and Jennifer, 30: "I'm incredibly immature and she's mature, so we've met at a good place."

When did they meet?  They met when Jennifer was an animal trainer at Universal Studios.  Prime Time Country, the show Gary used to host was on location there.

This is all according to an article in the Tennessean.  The person who wrote the article described Jennifer as "really sweet, pretty and very approachable".

Congratulations to Gary and Jennifer!  Good luck in your marriage and in your life together!
