Robert Griffin III and fiancee Rebecca Liddicoat are getting married this summer after being engaged for over a year and a half, the quarterback’s mother told FOX 5 in DC.

Griffin’s mother, Jackie, sat down for an interview with FOX 5. She praised her son in the interview, saying RG3 is “not afraid to show who he is” and that he “loves his fans.”

Jackie said her son and Liddicoat became engaged in Oct. 2011 after he proposed to her on the field following a practice with his family watching.

Liddicoat also attended Baylor and has been a mainstay at Griffin’s games both in college and the pros.

In case you’re interested in buying a gift for the couple, here’s their registry at Bed, Bath & Beyond. The registry says the wedding will be on July 6.

Behind every great man there’s a great woman, someone quotable I’m sure has said. Just ask Kobe about that — there’s a reason the Lakers are 1-2. Maybe Rebecca Liddicoat is the real fuel behind Robert Griffin III’s Heisman season.

Liddicoat is Griffin’s girlfriend and fiancee. Robert actually proposed to her while singing a song, and he had a friend play the music. The proposal also took place on a football field — not unlike another star quarterback from Texas.

Here are a few more pictures of the future Mrs. Griffin:
