Ryan Howard, Eagles Cheerleader engaged

POSTED: Thursday, April 7, 2011, 11:49 PM

Phillies slugger Ryan Howard and former Eagles Cheerleader Krystle Campbell, his girlfriend of nearly two years, are now engaged, according to Bucks County Courier-Times Phillies writer Randy Miller.

Miller posted on his blog this afternoon that he had congratulated Howard on the engagement to Campbell, who works as a suburban elementary school teacher, and that the Big Piece told him he was planning for a small wedding.

Miller, who also wrote "Harry the K: The Remarkable Life of Harry Kalas," says the couple are planning to wed next year.

Emails to representatives for the Phillies and Eagles seeking additional details were not immediately returned this evening.

The Fightins blog, which no longer publishes, identified Campbell as Howard's mystery Super Bowl date in February 2010, and we reported days later that Campbell and Howard began dating the previous summer, shortly after she and Flyers center Jeff Carter had broken up after going out for several months.

    Hmm, Ryan Howard has stolen Chase Utley's stupid hat...Jeff Carter's contract was only worth 58 million over 11 years. Hardly marriage material.

    I hope these comments aren't from Phillies fans. Pretty small minded towards a guy who has been not only a star player but a stand up guy and class act. Congratulations and good luck to the couple.

    What was the bigger attraction? His bank account or her purse?

    Roger Podacter - love the name. Also, I'm sure that chick's personality is off the charts. Maybe she'll keep him from swinging at too many balls. There's a ball joke in there somewhere.

    Congratulations to a gorgeous couple! Maybe people should trust Ryan to make his own decisions and stop assuming every woman who marries a wealthy man is only after his money. It just points to misery in your own lives that you're so jaundiced.

    Its easy to be cynical with this type of pretty woman and rich guy scenario, but good luck nonetheless. When a person as wealthy as Ryan decides to settle down it says a lot. He could have a lifetime stream of beautiful women if he wanted.

    She sounds like a gold digger. Congrats to Howard but I hope he gets a prenup because I think he's going to need it with her.

    If you want to identify a racist they are usually the ones invoking race into a discussion without provocation...move....on.
