Late in 2020, Blackstock popped the question to Branch during a trip to Walt Disney World, in front of Epcot’s Spaceship Earth. “Closing out the best year of my life the right way — I’m engaged to my best friend,” he wrote on Instagram when he shared the news.
Both Blackstock and his superstar mom have been lucky in love in recent months. McEntire’s been opening up about her relationship with Linn, which began in early 2020 and blossomed over socially distanced conversations during the COVID-19 pandemic. The star is even open to the possibility of marriage — though at the moment, she recently explained, it’s just fun to talk about.
In the meantime, McEntire’s stepping into her new role as mother-in-law to Branch, with wedding bells set to toll sometime in the not-too-distant future. In her Instagram post, Branch indicates that her wedding to Blackstock will take place in 97 days, which would mean the ceremony is planned for February 12, 2022.
