“She said ‘Yes!’”: Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, Ciara get engaged

Wait, how’d we miss this?

It had been two whole hours Friday of free-agent signings and visits and rumors, and I’d failed to notice the Seahawks’ franchise quarterback now truly has his franchise woman, singer Ciara.

Wilson, 27, and Ciara, 30, have been dating at least since the spring of 2015. And they haven’t been shy about being photographed and seen together, including at some of the country’s famous spots: music’s Grammy Awards; the White House; Seahawks training camp...

No immediate word on when and where one of pop culture’s most-talked-about couples will be getting married. But after his new Seahawks contract last summer, when Ciara and her toddler son where present almost daily at training-camp practices at team headquarters in Renton, Wilson had $87.6 million reasons to pop the question.

Wilson filed for divorce from Ashton Meem, his first wife and high-school sweetheart, in the spring of 2014 after two years of marriage.
