Kellie Pickler announced on The Ellen DeGeneres Show Friday that she and her dance partner, Derek Hough, will dance the rumba to “Say I Do,” a song written by Kellie’s husband, Kyle Jacobs, during tonight’s “Most Memorable Year”-themed episode of Dancing With The Stars. Kyle will be on hand to perform the song live with the help of the DWTS house band.

“It’s going to be a 100 percent emotional moment, and I’m just hoping I can keep it together,” Kyle said. “Kellie’s doing so well on the show, and she’s having so much fun. The fact that she’s dancing to this song, our song, means so very much to both of us… it honors the love that we have so much.”

When Ellen asked Kellie how Kyle felt about her performing with Derek each week, Kellie had a sweet response. “My husband knows he’s always going to get the last dance,” she said. Dancing With The Stars airs on ABC on Mondays at 8/7c.

Kellie and Kyle were married in a romantic oceanside ceremony January 1, 2011 in St. Lucia. See photos from their wedding as well as the weddings of some of your favorite country stars like Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert, Jake Owen, Eli Young Band and more in our Country Weddings Gallery!
