In an interview with D.C.'s HOT 99.5, Joe Riccitelli, the executive vice president of promotions for RCA Records casually mentioned that Spears would be taking "a little time off" in 2012, which is understandable, but the interviewer goes on to ask if Spears is taking the break to "be a mom and get married"… and Riccitelli replies "yes."

Although it's unclear whether he affirmed the question or didn't realize what he said yes to, we can't ignore the rumors swirling that Britney and her beau Jason Trawick have been planning to tie the knot for quite some time. Could this mini-vacation really be time set aside for the couple to get married?

In what may be related news, Britney tweeted last night that she had a "big surprise" planned for her boyfriend's birthday today. Wonder what it could be…
