Russell Wilson and Ciara are the latest celebrity couple that features a star NFL quarterback, following in the footsteps of Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen, Aaron Rodgers and Olivia Munn, and many others. Those relationships are not as new as Wilson's, but he and Ciara are already making headlines just like the others.

Peyton Manning Hoping Tom Brady Would Get Suspended?

According to TMZ, Ciara was out to eat a nice dinner over the weekend with some friends (for the proverbial "girls' night"), and she got a surprise visit from Wilson. Normally, it is a no-no for boyfriends to interrupt their lady when she is out with the gal pals, but apparently Ciara was overjoyed when Wilson dropped by.

Wilson showed up at the Palm -- one of D.C.'s nicest steakhouses -- unannounced as a surprise to Ciara. "Ciara was shocked to see him," said Mike Melore, the restaurant's general manager. "She said she didn't know he was coming, but she was super happy he was there."

The pair took the time to enjoy their food and greet other guests that wanted a picture or autograph, and the restaurant repaid them by staying open late (yet another perk of being a superstar).

"We normally close around 10:30, but we stayed open late for them, until 1:30 AM," Melore says. "They were extremely nice and humble. They took pictures with every staff member that asked before they left."
