Wedding bells are in the near future for Abby Wambach and Christian mom blogger Glennon Doyle Melton.

Melton, 40, was first to share news that the couple got engaged on Facebook with a black and white photo of herself holding hands with the United States soccer player, both donning large rings.

“Abby and I decided to hold hands forever,” she captioned the image on Saturday. “First, fiercely, and forever.”

Wambach, 36, posted the same photo for her 490,000 Instagram followers on Sunday.

“Happy,” the athlete wrote, adding the hashtag #iseethemoonnow.
