Jared got engaged to Martha earlier last Month, Jared's rep confirms exclusively to JustJared.com

“Yes, it’s true!” the rep says. “Jared proposed to Martha on April 11 at his home in Nashville and we’re all excited for the newly engaged couple.”

Jared popped the question with a 4-carat cushion-cut diamond set on a

diamond-covered band, which he designed. Check out the sparkler in these first official engagement pics of the pair!

The 25-year-old rocker and Martha, a model, have been dating for only a few months. A whirlwind romance!

The couple plans to split their time between their homes in Nashville and Los Angeles.

Congrats to the happy couple!

Interview with MTV on the Red Carpert at the Grammys:

"We just bought a rehearsal space-slash-studio in Nashville, so we're going to spend the next few months getting that up and running; kind of make it our little clubhouse to get there and just kind of goof off whenever we want to," Followill added. "But, I'd say within the next six months, we'll probably start kicking some stuff around."

And from the sound of things, they'll have plenty to kick around: Caleb is already writing new material, and he's itching to let his brothers (and cousin) have a listen. And, just in case you were wondering if he's holding any resentment over last year's drama, just know that he's going to welcome their feedback.

"I've been writing a lot. Kinda want everyone to get a little break from each other, but whenever they're ready, I want to play some stuff," he said. "Well, lyrics, that's usually one of the last things I do, but the melodies are really strong, and the lyrics that I have written I think are pretty good, but we'll see. These guys are always a good judge of if I'm going the right way with something or not."

Kings of Leon have been nominated in the following categories: 

• Best Rock Album - "Come Around Sundown"
• Best Long Form Music Video - "Talihina Sky" (the film)

GOOD LUCK GUYS!
