Zooey Deschanel Engaged! New Girl Star Pregnant & Getting Married To Jacob Pechenik 6 Months After Jamie Linden Split

A pregnancy and a proposal all in the same month? Wow, Zooey Deschanel is really showing us how to star off a new year right. Not only did the New Girl star just reveal that she is expecting her first child with baby daddy and boyfriend Jacob Pechenik, but now it is being confirmed that the star is also engaged.

According to E! News, Pechenik, who serves as the actress's producer, popped the question on January 17, which just so happens to be his lady love's birthday. During a trip to Catalina Island, Jacob used the picture perfect California scenery as the backdrop for getting down on one knee and asking for Zooey's hand in marriage.

The news comes just one week after Zooey told People magazine that she was expecting the pair's first child together.

"Jacob and I are over the moon," the singer and actress gushed to the news site. "We are so excited to meet our little one."

According to Us Weekly, Deschanel began dating Jacob shortly after calling things off with her former boyfriend and screenwriter Jamie Linden in 2014. The star was also previously wed to Death Cab for Cutie musician Ben Gibbard, who ended their union in 2012.

This is a pretty busy year for the duo, as they have a child to prepare for, a wedding to plan, and Zooey and Jacob are also currently working together on a film called Rock the Kasbah, which also stars Bruce Willis, Bill Murray and Taylor Kinney.

No news yet on when the pair plans to tie the knot, but they are set to welcome their baby this summer.
