Bobby Deen and family announced that he got engaged today to Claudia Lovera.  Bobby tweeted "I'm so excited to share the news that she said "yes"! Claudia makes me a better person... and she is a great cook!"  Also, Paula Deen tweeted out "Y'all, please join me in congratulating Bobby on his engagement! Welcome to the family, Claudia!"  Both tweets also had the picture to the right (although it was sideways.)

Many people probably still think Bobby was still dating Katy Mixon (pictured below), who has been on Paula Deen shows with Bobby and is most known for her roles in Eastbound & Down and Mike  & Molly.  However, in February Bobby revealed that they broke up when she moved to Los Angeles, and that it was a hard decision.  So I guess he moved on pretty quickly.

 








In that interview, he also said that  he 'met a wonderful, beautiful young lady who is a triathlete and wellness expert. She is not famous, and that's somewhat of a relief to me because I'm protective of those I love, and when you're in the public eye that can be hard to do.'

Claudia is 27, originally from Venezuela and currently lives in Chicago.  She went to school at Savannah College of Art and Design for her masters degree, so I am assuming they probably met in Savannah, but I could be wrong.  Here are a few pictures of Bobby and Claudia at a recent Bobby Deen charity event.

So Congratulations to Bobby and Claudia!
