Obviously, Robertson is super-excited about becoming an engaged man, and he released a statement to Us Weekly expressing his happiness.
“I am so excited to marry my best friend,” he told the publication. “I know my parents married young as well, and they have always been examples of what ‘could be’ to me. Fast-forward 22 years and they are more in love than ever, and I hope Mary Kate and I are the same way in the years to come. God has truly blessed us.”
But how does his sister Sadie feel about her brother getting engaged? Especially since the lady he’s going to be marrying is her best friend.
