Bret Michaels Has Gotten Engaged To Long Time Girlfriend? (Update)
(HMG) – With all the things that have happened to him of late, one wouldn’t be surprised to see Bret Michaels make some life changing decisions. And according to Star Magazine Michaels has gotten engaged to his off-and-on girlfriend of 16 years, as he proposed to Kristi Lynn Gibson, the mother of his two daughters, just after the July 4 weekend at his ranch outside of Scottsdale (Star has a pic of the ring here). The wedding details will be worked out when Bret’s tour is over and he has a clean bill of health. Not surprisingly, Bret reportedly decided to propose after narrowly surviving a brain hemorrhage in April:
“Bret felt like now was the time because Kristi has been through so much with Bret and has been by his side every step of the way,” another source told Star.
Bret and Kristi were snapped with daughters Raine Elizabeth, 10, and Jorja Bleu, 5, above before an appearance by the rocker on the David Letterman show on July 12th.
Update: Star jumped the gun a little bit as Michaels said during a CBS Early Show interview on Wednesday morning.”We’re a work in progress.” Â Michaels calls the new ring on her finger as: “a promise ring … a friendship ring, with benefits. That’s what we call it.”
