“My best Christmas surprise is happening. We’re engaged yall! @HannahBlackwell,” the “American Idol” Season 11 champ posted on Facebook on Friday.

“I’ve been dreaming of this for over 20 years. I’ve been dreaming of this guy for just that long. Overwhelmed with happiness,” Hannah Instagrammed alongside a closeup of her ring next to a photo of herself in 1995.

In May 2012, Access Hollywood asked Phillip what the future had in store 10 years down the line.

“I might have a family going,” he said at the time. “I’m a really family oriented guy. … I want to have a family of my own one day. I love kids. I want to have my own kids with whoever I marry.”
