Congrats ‘American Idol’ Couple – Hollywood Life

Congratulations to the happy couple – Gabby Barrett and Cade Foehner, who were on ‘American Idol’ are officially engaged!

Former American Idol contestants Gabby Barrett, 19, and Cade Foehner, 22, who were on season 16 of the singing reality show together in 2018, announced their engagement, and we couldn’t be happier for the couple! Cade revealed that he has been thinking of proposing for some time now. “I’ve been thinking about proposing for quite a while,” Cade told People. “It’s getting harder and harder to be apart. Doing all the traveling we have to do, sometimes we have to go a month without seeing each other. That’s a little much for me, so I decided to go ahead and do this thing!”

Cade romantically proposed in the hotel where they first met. “Cade [started] saying all these sweet things and I didn’t think anything of it because he normally does it all the time,” Gabby gushed over the proposal. “But I noticed he kept going on and on and then he eventually said, ‘I want to spend the rest of my life with you.’ Then he got down on one knee and he asked and I said, ‘Yes!’” We’re so thrilled for the two and can’t wait to hear more about their future wedding – will other former contestants sing at the big event?! We’ll have to wait and see! For now, we wish the best to the happy couple and hope they enjoy their engagement!
