ARKANSAS (KFSM) – Sen. Mark Pryor, D-Ark., is engaged to be married, according to a tweet from one of Mike Ross’ staff members.

The Democratic senator’s new fiancé is Joi Whitfield, the tweet states.

Pryor mentioned Whitfield in his farewell speech to the Senate, saying, “God has also brought an old sweetheart back into my life – Joi – with whom I attended the 6th and 7th grades. So, when I say GOD has brought me joy, I mean it! Literally.”

Whitfield was also mentioned on his campaign website. He thanked her for being with him “every step of the way.”

Pryor was defeated in the Nov. election by Sen.-elect Tom Cotton, R-Ark.
