Former DAYS star Jensen Ackles Engaged to Danneel Harris

Thursday November 12, 2009

Daytime Emmy nominated actor and former Days of Our Lives star Jensen Ackles (ex-Eric Brady) is engaged to his longtime girlfriend and One Tree Hill actress Danneel Harris, according to Eonline and other various reports. News of their engagement came last weekend when Danneel was seen sporting her ring at the Breeder's Cup horse championships in California, which she attended with Jensen.

DAYS fans remember Jensen Ackles as Eric Brady, Sami's twin brother and Nicole's love interest. Jensen portrayed Eric from 1997 until July 31, 2000 and garnered three Daytime Emmy nominations in 1998, 1999, and 2000 for Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series. He won a Soap Opera Digest Award in 1998 for Outstanding Male Newcomer. Jensen has portrayed Dean Winchester on the CW hit series Supernatural since 2005.

Heartfelt congratulations go out to Jensen Ackles and his fiance Danneel Harris. No word as of yet on a wedding date for the couple.
