Country singer Brantley Gilbert announced he was engaged to the muse behind his hit songs "More Than Miles" and "You Don't Know Her Like I Do" last month, but fans were left in the dark about the identity of the lucky lady. Now, though, the star is more than willing to open up about his future wife.
Gilbert quietly snuck his new fiancée (who was clad in a glam gold dress) to the CMA Awards last week, but because they walked the red carpet so quickly, most fans missed her seriously stunning public debut.
So who is his not-so-secret fiancée? According to an interview with People, Gilbert is set to marry Amber Cochran, a school teacher from his hometown. After ending his engagement to fellow country singer Jana Kramer in August 2013, he rekindled his romance with Cochran (seen in the photo below).
"It was one of those things that was on and off for a few years — mostly on — and then she was the one that got away for about five years," Brantley said last month. "It came back around and I've never been happier. This little one, she's the one, and I'm a pretty stoked dude. I'm pretty excited to say the least."

"Amber is an amazing person and has inspired a lot of songs ... for the last 10 years," Gilbert tells People. "I'm a blessed man to have her back in my life and can't wait to make her my wife."
As for wedding plans, these two are planning to exchange vows in June 2015 — clearly Brantley won't let her get away this time!
