Candice Crawford

Tony Romo's Dallas Cowboys are off to a 3-3 start, but there's nothing mediocre about this news: The quarterback's wife, Candice Crawford, is pregnant!

The 31-year-old NFL star dropped the bomb himself this morning.

"I actually have one on the way," Romo said during an anti-drug rally at Cedar Hill High School on Tuesday, according to NBC. "My wife is pregnant."

Tony Romo broke the news himself: Candice Crawford is pregnant!

Romo began dating the 24-year-old in the summer of 2009. A former Miss Missouri USA, she's worked as a Dallas sports, news and fashion reporter.

Candice is also the younger sister of Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford.

Engaged since December, Tony married Candice Crawford this May before a crowd of 600 guests in Dallas. Now they're starting a family. Congrats!

Romo's previous loves include Carrie Underwood, Sophia Bush and, most famously, someone else who's been the subject of baby rumors of late.

While we're still waiting for confirmation that Jessica Simpson is pregnant, her former boyfriend had no reservations about breaking the exciting news.

Tony Romo plays quarterback. But he made the catch of his life yesterday, marrying former Miss Missouri Candice Crawford in a ceremony in Dallas.

Of the nuptials, a source told People: "It was perfect! From the ceremony in beautiful white, to a vibrant after-party and great music selected by Tony himself."

Crawford is a local TV anchor and the sister of Gossip Girl star Chace. She got engaged to Romo in December, following the star's long, widely-publicized relationship with Jessica Simpson.

Over 600 guests attended the wedding, and the couple ought to have plenty of time to honeymoon: there's no end in sight to the NFL lockout.

It's been a crazy few weeks of celebrity breakups, but Tony Romo was unfazed by it. The Dallas Cowboys quarterback got engaged to Candice Crawford!

Romo popped the question while celebrating her 24th birthday on Thursday. Candice Crawford is a sports reporter for KDAF ... the CW station in Dallas.

Appropriately, they first reported the engagement.

Oh, and Candice is the younger sister of Gossip Girl star Chace!

A former Miss Missouri, Candice began dating Tony Romo about a year ago. They've kept a fairly low profile since. She and Chace are Dallas-area natives.

Romo is now the second Jessica Simpson ex to get engaged in the last month. Eric Johnson also put a ring on Jessica Simpson, so she can't feel too awful.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

Miles Austin, step off. Your celebrity girlfriend has some competition.

Dallas Cowboys teammate Tony Romo, who has already dated Carrie Underwood and Jessica Simpson, is now dating former Miss Missouri Candice Crawford.

The sister of Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford happens to be Dallas sports reporter now. Conflict of interest much? Bet he gives her some real exclusives ...

... if you know what we're talking about!

Anyway, Candice was one of two special spectators this past Sunday at the Cowboys' practice: Kim Kardashian, Miles Austin's girlfriend, was also on hand.

Both watched practice from a private suite. Can the 'Boys succeed amid this media circus? Will Dallas fans throw Candice under the bus if they suck? Will the famed Kardashian title-delivering string of good luck continue? Time will tell.

The more important question is ...

Who's hotter?

He already took a big step in life by winning a playoff game (singular) this year. Could the Dallas Cowboys quarterback be stepping it up off the field too?

Rumors are swirling again that Tony Romo and Candice Crawford, who were linked last year, are not just dating again, but ready to walk down the aisle.

Back in December, Candice Crawford was spotted sporting something shiny and diamond-like on her finger, but colleagues shot down engagement rumors.

However, friends close to the Dallas power couple are now saying that Tony and Candice, sister of Gossip Girl star Chace, really are getting that serious.

Tony Romo is pumped about Candice Crawford. Deservedly so!

"Tony's ready to make the next step," a friend of the hunky QB tells E! about the cute former Miss Missouri and current Dallas-area sports journalist.

"They'll move in together," adds the sports (and relationship) insider, "because he's telling friends he's most likely going to pop the question... soon."

Whoa.

Perhaps Tony has learned from past, public courtships with Carrie Underwood and Jessica Simpson that he should keep things a bit more under wraps.

We applaud that ... as well as his taste in women. Well, looks-wise. Jessica was kinda painful by the end, which was a big reason why he dumped her.

The rumored romance between Candice Crawford, beauty queen and sister of Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford, and Dallas Cowboys star Tony Romo is now confirmed!

Or at least reported by a whole bunch of other sources!

The Chicago Sun-Times, Dallas Morning News, New York Daily News and others are saying that the football star has moved on from Jessica Simpson with Candice.

One could call her a younger, prettier and in all likelihood smarter and less annoying version of the alleged actress and singer he dated for over a year until recently.

Us Weekly even quotes a source as saying Candice Crawford is "not exactly happy that it's out [in the media], but they weren't trying to hide either." Okay then.

"They've gone out to dinner in Dallas a bunch."

Guess that means she's dating Tony Romo!

Candice Crawford and Tony Romo make a cute couple.

Candice, 22, was crowned Miss Missouri 2008 (she went to school there), and is a native of Dallas along with Gossip Girl actor Chace, who's pals with Tony Romo.

Talk about mixing business and pleasure, too: She reports on high school sports for Dallas station 33TV and also hosts a weekend Dallas Cowboys sports show.

Looks like she'll be getting the inside scoop in more ways than one from now on, if you know what we mean! NOTE: We don't even know what we mean by that.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo definitely has a type.

According to Celeb TV, the NFL star and quasi-celebrity is now dating Miss Missouri Candice Crawford, the sister of Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford!

While this rumor is unsubstantiated, it could be true because:

• Tony and Chace, a Dallas native, are friends.
• Candice Crawford covers high school sports for Dallas station 33TV and also hosts the weekend Dallas Cowboys sports show Special Edition.
• She totally kind of looks like Jessica Simpson and Carrie Underwood (who, after dating Tony Romo, also dated Chace Crawford). We're sold!

Whether they're dating or not, don't you think Tony Romo and Candace Crawford make a cute pair? She's gotta be less annoying than Jessica, too ...

It's been a rough few weeks for Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford, who split with Carrie Underwood and endured online gossip about his sexuality.

Specifically, it was rumored that Chace and pal JC Chasez were lovers.

Lil' sis Candice Crawford says he's hanging in there though.

"He's doing okay through this whole ordeal," Candice said. "He was upset about the breakup. It's always hard when you lose a relationship."

Still, his sister added, don't expect to see Chace Crawford and the American Idol champ-turned country star moping around for long.

"Chace will get through it," Candice Crawford said. "We love Carrie, too. They're dolls and they'll both do well."

Candice Crawford is doing her best to distract her bummed-out brother. Next week, she'll compete in the Miss USA Pageant at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino - and Chace, 23, will be there in person to cheer her on.

"The whole family will be there rooting for me," Candice, a.k.a. Miss Missouri, said. "My mom made T-shirts and little pins for everyone."

To capture the crown April 11, Candice will have to impress judges such as Heather Mills, Joey Fatone, Rob Schneider and Christian Siriano.

It never stops. The new Miss Missouri USA, Candice Crawford, was recently cited in Columbia, Mo., as a minor in possession of alcohol.

Somewhere, fellow embattled beauty queens Tara Conner, Katie Blair, Ingrid Marie Rivera, Amy Polumbo, Valerie Begue and Katie Rees are smiling.

And quite possibly getting their drink on!

Candice Crawford, a junior and broadcast journalism major at the University of Missouri-Columbia, is the sister of Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford.

With her December, 2007 citation for underage possession of alcohol, 20-year-old Candice Crawford became the latest beauty queen to make celebrity gossip news.

The Columbia Missourian's police blotter reads simply:

Candice Crawford, 20, was cited for suspicion of minor in possession at 12:08 a.m. March 16 at Tonic in the 100 block of South Ninth Street.

Sorry, Katie Blair and Tara Conner.

You had your time in the beauty pageant spotlight.

It's time to make way for the next crop of Miss USA contenders, starting with Candice Crawford. The 20-year old has just been named Miss Missouri 2008.

Aside from her role as a junior at the University of Missouri-Columbia and her major of broadcast journalism, Candice is known for something else: being the gorgeous sister of Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford.

Indeed, this is the hottest sibling pairing since the glory days of Jamie-Lynn Spears and Britney Spears.
