Zac Brown is engaged to marry jewellery designer Kendra Scott after a whirlwind romance.

The Zac Brown Band star, 46, went public with his new relationship in May when the couple walked the red carpet at the American Music Awards in Las Vegas and reports suggested they had been dating for several months - and now they are planning a wedding after the musician presented Kendra, 51, with a pink diamond ring.

The happy couple told PEOPLE: "We are so happy and grateful that we found each other."

A source added to the publication: "They were set up by a mutual friend, and are totally in love. They are head over heels and have become inseparable."

The wedding will mark Zac's third trip down the aisle. He was previously married to Shelly Sloan - the mother of his five children - but the union ended in divorce in 2018 after 12 years.

At the time, the former couple noted they felt "blessed" to have been together for so long and would always "love" their family but they had grown apart as they looked forward to their "next venture" in life.

In a statement, they explaiemd: "We feel blessed to be on such an incredible journey in life and sometimes the journey begins to lead in different directions. It is with deep love and respect that we announce we are separating as a couple.

"We have led a whirlwind life together growing into a beautiful family with five amazing children and while life will be rearranging a bit, our love and commitment to our family will always be there.

"This was a difficult decision, but we've done plenty of tough things together and this is our next venture — love, mutual respect, and care for each other are what we are moving forward with."

Zac went on to tie the knot with model/actress Kelly Yazdi in August 2023 but the couple split just four months after the wedding.

In a joint statement released at the time, they told TMZ.com: "We are in the process of divorce. Our mutual respect for one another remains.

"We wish each other the best and will always appreciate our time together. As we navigate this personal matter, we simply request privacy during this time."
