But why Rochelle?
“It just clicked. We had been dating for about a year and a half and I proposed to her on my birthday in January and I just knew. There was this moment when you just know. This is it. I am done searching the world.”
AJ is already thinking about the future and having babies!
“We’d like to be married for a couple of years, enjoy it, and then get in lots and lots of practice. But, I am going to have a girl, I know it! Brian Littrell has a boy, Howie Dorough has a boy, and I can guarantee you mine will be a girl.”
