Kellie Pickler stole our hearts on American Idol and now she’s living a happy, newlywed, bliss filled life with her man, Kyle Jacobs. This gorgeous couple tied the knot on the first of the year and they are still on cloud 9.
Kellie sat down and dished to People about her growing domestic skills,
“I’m just lucky if I don’t burn the house down. I’m trying to work on the cooking thing, so it’s a big deal if I get into the kitchen.”

Being a southern belle, Kellie is trying to get her hubby to enjoy fried foods,
“I haven’t gotten him hooked on fried okra,” Pickler, 24, said at Tuesday’s 9th Annual Dressed to Kilt event at New York’s Hammerstein Ballroomt. “He hates that, but that’s my favorite food. We gotta figure out how to get him to like it.”
These two come from very different areas of the country, so that influences their tastes for sure,
“Kyle’s from Minnesota, so he didn’t grow up eating Southern food. My grandparents had a huge part in raising me. My grandmother deep-fried everything. You add a pound of butter and nothing’s good for you, but it all tastes good.”
Outside the kitchen (and probably in as well) their love is blossoming,
“We love each other,” says Pickler. “We’re crazy about each other. He knows that he’s No. 1, and I know that I’m No. 1 to him, so that’s the most important thing. He’s definitely my little Romeo.”
Kellie has such a touching life story and seeing her get her happily ever ever makes me smile. She is so sweet and so deserving. Congrats to you Kellie!
