Jana Kramer announced on Thursday that she is engaged to former football player Allan Russell, after dating for just six and a half months.
After teasing that she had “a few things I haven’t talked about”, Russell, 42, announced that he had proposed to her.
“He took me and the kids – there were a few people there during the day – like a little pool party, summer hangout. And he took me and the kids, he said it was a beautiful night, let’s go for a walk.” he said on his “Whine Down” podcast.
She said they went to her new Tennessee home, which was slated to be finished in August, and sat on the front steps.

“It was a really beautiful night and me and the kids were all … looking at the view, because it’s an amazing view, I mean,” the 39-year-old country star explained.
Russell said his name and the next thing he knew he was on one knee.
“And Jolie started jumping up and down,” Kramer said of the 7-year-old daughter she shares with ex-husband Mike Caussin. The former couple also share son Jace, 4.
“It was like the coolest thing ever. It’s like he knew what was going on,” Kramer continued, before Russell could say anything. “He started jumping up and down and then ‘You’re getting married!’ And then he said — I kind of blacked out. He said some things … and then we both started crying.”
The “I Got the Boy” singer said the proposal felt “very sentimental” because they were in their new home “and new beginnings,” and it felt good.

Kramer said that Caussini likes Russell and that he thought they were going to get engaged when he asked her before.
And while she didn’t have a timetable for their engagement before it happened, she knew “he’s my person. I trust him, there’s no worry about that.”
Jolie also told Caussin that she was engaged while the 7-year-old was Facetiming with her father.

“It’s like, ‘Ah, that’s cool,'” Kramer said. “I wish I had told her, but I don’t want Jolie to have to keep secrets from her father.”
The two then spoke privately and Caussin told her: “I’m really happy for you and Allan is a great guy.”
She said she started crying because she says, “Of all people, you deserve to have someone who loves you and respects you and you deserve this.” He says, ‘After all I put you through, you deserve this more than anyone else.’ It meant so much to me that he said that.’
Last year, Kramer alleged that Caussin, whom she divorced in 2021, cheated on more than 13 women during their six-year marriage.
