Sara Evans is gushing about her recent engagement to Jay Barker, a former University of Alabama football star and current sports-talk radio host. The two were introduced through a relationship counselor, whom they were both seeing after their respective divorces. Evans, who had her first date with Barker in November, admits she was totally unprepared for how quickly she would fall for him."I was just like, 'Omigosh, I'm totally falling in love with this man.' I was really skittish," she told GAC. "He just makes me feel so safe . . . emotionally, psychologically and even physically. I mean, he's big, he's very strong. He's a wonderful father to four children, and now he's gonna be a stepfather to my children. And he's just an amazing, amazing man. And did I mention he's gorgeous? He looks like a football player! He's got a great bod."
The couple is planning a summer wedding. They've already begun discussing combining his four children with her three, together in one household.
"The 'Brady Bunch' had six kids, and we have seven kids, and if we had another one, we could do 'Eight Is Enough,'" Evans jokes. "If we had two more, we could do 'Eight Wasn't Enough.' I'm not having two more children, I can
promise you that."

Sara Evans deserves complete and utter happiness! He better be good to her or the whole country will be mad at him :)
She is right where GOD intends her to be at this moment in time.
Thanks Sara for showing preserverance in the face of adversity and that a person can have more than one love in a lifetime!

I know Jay Barker.. quirky! Stuck but a great guy.. I have met Sara Evans several times during catering concerts at Verizon Wireless Music Center. Sweet! Great Lady.. Down to earth!

This sounds like a classic rebound relationship. I give it 6 months tops, if they even get married.

She reminds me of Natalie Wood.To me, she looks very much like her. And I did love Natalie!

I think Jay could find someone much better than Sara.

Congrats! Jay Barker is an amazing man. I am so glad that he has found happiness again. I hope Sara feels comfortable saying ROLL TIDE and spending time in Tuscaloosa/Birmingham. In Alabama, Jay is loved, and we all wish them well. See you in August!!

Statistics are against a rebound marriage but if they always remember what brought them together, it can all work out. If all else fails, Sara can just start singing to Jay and all will be right in the world.

In her pic her boobs look gross and too defined. I think she is very over rated. I would pick Faith Hill over her any day. Faith beats her in looks and voice both!

you people are utter morons. this slut, a"christian", of course, thought nothing of screwing every man in sight, while married to her husband (both rabid rightwingers), trashed his reputation AND that of her "best" friend. now, months later, this "cristian" is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo in love. how pure. what a typical "christian" approach to life. and all of you lapdogs eat it up. meanwhile gay people in 20, 30, 40 year relationships have no rights.

These people kill me! Every time you turn around they are falling in love. It may last a little while, but they get married so often that they don't have time to change the sheets on the bed.
