In a heartwarming moment, country singer-songwriter Kelly proposed to his girlfriend Tia Cubelic backstage at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville on September 24. The 37-year-old artist announced the exciting news on Instagram on October 15, sharing a series of engagement photos and a video from the special occasion.
Kelly and Cubelic's relationship blossomed after they met on a family vacation in June 2024, despite living just 8 minutes apart in Nashville. The couple's love story took a romantic turn when Kelly popped the question under a picture of the legendary Johnny Cash, with both their families present to witness the special moment.
