Newlyweds Kellie Pickler and husband Kyle Jacobs may have spent a couple romantic days in the Caribbean during their wedding, but their honeymoon destination was a little less glamorous.  The two jumped on a plane and flew to Iraq where the country singer performed for  troops as a part of the USO, and she said Jacobs loved it.  “That was part of my honeymoon,” Pickler said according to People.  “It was so romantic!  No, it was just that I had already committed to going over there and I wasn’t going to cancel because that wouldn’t have been right.”  As a long time supporter of the troops, the singer said it was a great experience for her to share with her new hubby.

Country star Kellie Pickler gave up her beloved cat, Pickles, for her husband, Kyle Jacobs, who is horribly allergic to her feline friend.  Pickler adopted Pickles from a Tennessee animal shelter in 2006 after wrapping American Idol, and they’d been best friends every since.  After dating Jacobs for four years, she had to make the devastating decision to find Pickles a new home in North Carolina.  According to People, Pickler now lives vicariously through friends with felines and acts as an animal advocate.  In spite of her difficult loss, she did gain unconditional love with her husband.  “Every time I look at my hand, I go, ‘Good God.’  What’s behind this ring is such unconditional love, trust and respect.  I see my husband every time I look at my ring.  I’m a blessed woman — I have a good man,” said the singer.

Kelly Pickler, who has been married to Kyle Jacobs since New Year’s, isn’t in any hurry to have children.  “I don’t know what’s gotten into these kids where they feel like they have got to have a baby because their friend has one or whatever,” said Pickler, according to People. The 25-year-old star realizes that she and her partner are in a stable relationship and that being a parent is a big responsibility.  At the moment, the couple simply aren’t ready to take that next step.
