Dallas Cowboys Tony Romo was rumored to be secretly dating Jessica Simpson earlier this year, but now the star quarterback is coming clean about the new blond in his life reports PerezHilton.Com.

American Idol champ Carrie Underwood, who released one of the most successful albums of 2006, surprised football fans on Christmas day with her appearance at Texas Stadium, where she was seen with Romo and gave him a hug on the field before his game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Now, In Touch Weekly reports that Tony has confirmed that he and Carrie are a couple in an interview the Journal Gazette/Times-Courier, a small-town paper in Charleston, Ill., where he played college football.

Sports editor Brian Nielsen says, “After I asked him all my usual football questions, I said, ‘My wife really wants to know if the Jessica Simpson dating rumors are true.’” He laughed and replied, ‘No. Tell her I’m dating Carrie Underwood’.
