Elizabeth Smart, who was kidnapped and kept hostage for years only to be finally reunited with her family several years ago, is engaged. Elizabeth’s father, Ed, shared the happy news but declined to answer who the fiance is and when Elizabeth is planning on marrying her new guy.

Although Ed won’t provide any details about his daughter’s fiancé except that he is “a very nice man,” the Salt Lake Tribune reports that wedding registries online at Williams-Sonoma and Pottery Barn list a July 1 wedding date for an Elizabeth Smart and Matthew Gilmour in Utah.

Chris Thomas, a rep for Elizabeth, says he can’t confirm the wedding date or the name of Smart’s fiancé, but says, “I know they’re looking at a summer wedding. They’re still in the process of planning the wedding, and there are a lot of details to still be worked out.”

Thomas also emphasized Smart’s desire for privacy. “She’s going to be very public in her child advocacy work, but has decided she wants to keep her personal life private,” he said.

I give her a lot of credit, she’s really tried hard to move on with her life and try to live a normal life.
