Another congratulations is in order for this young man! It has been confirmed that the "American Idol" alum is now engaged to his longtime girlfriend Hannah Blackwell. The "American Idol" season 11 victor announced the exciting news after Christmas Day on the social media websites, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

"My best Christmas surprise is happening. We're engaged yall! @HannahBlackwell," the 24-year-old singer captioned a photo of him and his new fiancé on Twitter.

A second picture was posted on Instagram by Blackwell showing off her well-manicured hand adorned with an engagement ring on her finger. In the background, a throwback picture of the soon-to-be wife back in 1995 was featured on a Christmas ornament.

"I've been dreaming of this for over 20 years," she ecstatically revealed on Twitter. "I've been dreaming of this guy for just that long. Overwhelmed with happiness. @phillphill."

The happy couple who are both from Georgia first met each other at the age of 18 when they were volunteering together, long before the singer won the 11th season of the FOX singing competition, "American Idol" more than 2 years ago. It was only when the series finale ended that Phillips opened up about his relationship with Blackwell to the show's host, Ryan Seacrest.

"She is really excited for me and she's helped me out a lot through this. I'm hoping she'll maybe be able to go on tour," the "Gone, Gone, Gone" singer smiled. "It would be cool having her, she's supported me so much. Love her, love her to death."

Looks like the singer got his wish this Christmas. "My girlfriend is a lot smarter than me so she comes on the road and handles some of the business aspects," he later revealed in an interview with "Elle" magazine last month. "She meets me at some points. Like I said, she's smarter than me and likes to read so she goes over things I look past."
