After losing her first husband in a horrific accident four years ago, Mattie Jackson Selecman, the daughter of country music icon Alan Jackson, has found love once more.
Mattie, 33, who she first met in late 2021 through a close friend, revealed her engagement to Connor Smith on Sunday.
She captioned an Instagram photo of her ring with, “Feeling extremely thankful, delighted, and thrilled for this kind-of-surprise but so-fervently-prayed-for ENGAGEMENT.” “Connor Smith, I adore your joyful disposition, caring heart, and contagious zest for life. I’m very excited to marry you and start a family with you! You are the greatest gift wrapped up in the cutest possible form. I love you, baby.”

Smith and Mattie, whom Jackson shares with his wife Denise, got engaged while visiting Palm Beach, Florida, to honor Smith’s 30th birthday.
The good news comes four years after Mattie’s husband, Ben Selecman, passed away in September 2018 from a head injury sustained when he slipped on a boat dock.
The 28-year-old Assistant District Attorney for Tennessee’s Davidson County suffered severe brain damage in the collision, and he later passed away following multiple operations and an 11-day medically induced coma.
In April, Mattie made her initial relationship announcement with Smith, claiming they had been connected at a happy hour six months previously.
