Congratulations are in order for late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel. The host of ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" is engaged to girlfriend Molly McNearney, his rep confirmed to People magazine.

Kimmel, 44, proposed to McNearney, 34, while vacationing in South Africa's Kruger National Forest. The couple has been together since 2009. McNearney is a co-head writer for "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"
