A day after her American Idol ousting, Kristy Lee Cook announced she is getting hitched.

Cook, 24, said her 25-year-old beau, Andrew Dobner, first popped the question on March 17.

They kept the news "on the down-low" because "I just wanted to be focused on Idol," the Oregon native told Usmagazine.com in a conference call Thursday.

He then proposed again last night on Idol.

"He actually got down on his knee this time," she said. "He owed it to me!"

Cook said they're planning to tie the knot "next June sometime."
