Touchdown! Jessica Simpson and free agent NFL player Eric Johnson are getting married, a rep confirms to PEOPLE.
“Yes, we are excited to confirm that they are engaged!” says the rep.
The couple began dating in May, after being introduced by friends. Ever since, they have been spotted getting cozy across the U.S. and overseas – even celebrating her 30th birthday together in Italy.
Simpson recently told PEOPLE she and Johnson, 31, were planning to spend Thanksgiving together.
“We’re all gonna be in New York,” said the entertainer and fashion designer. “I’m gonna be on a [Macy’s parade] float. It’s not always the best way to spend a Thanksgiving, but it’s a great way to celebrate. So, maybe I’ll just have all families on the float.”
Explaining how well their relationship was working, Simpson told PEOPLE last month, “This is just normal, thank God. He’s very, very supportive. [I] couldn’t ask for a better man in my life right now.”
Asked if Johnson were the one, she replied: “I never go to that because I already went there, so, I’m not gonna jinx my own self. He’s the one for me right now! I’m very happy, I’m in a great place and if right now could last forever, I’d take it.”
As for Johnson, who’s played for the San Francisco 49ers and the New Orleans Saints, the 6′ 3″ Needham, Mass., native has excelled at sports since he was a kid. At 13, he hit a hole in one on the golf course, and he broke 11 school records while playing wide receiver for Yale University. He’s also a former academic All-American.
Life & Style can exclusively report that after almost seven months of dating, actress Cameron Diaz and Yankees player Alex Rodriguez have called it quits. “Cameron and A-Rod are no longer dating and have definitely parted ways,” a source tells Life & Style. “He just doesn’t like her anymore. That’s honestly the reason they split.”Speculation of the breakup began when Cameron was seen leaving Morton’s Club in London with a mystery man on Oct. 19, while A-Rod was playing in the biggest game of the season. Just days later, she was caught leaving LA’s Bardot nightclub on Oct. 21 with Glee star Matthew Morrison. To add more fuel to the fire, A-Rod was seen partying in Las Vegas on Oct. 28 sans Cameron. “A-Rod got a table at Haze night and a huge group of Romanian models happened to be at the very next table,” an eyewitness tells Life & Style. “A-Rod was chatting up a storm with the girls and spent the night hanging out with them.” He showed up at the opening of the JW Marriott Marquis Miami last night once again without Cameron.
