Kyle Kuzma shocked Winnie Harlow with a Caribbean proposal: 'We're over the moon'
Kyle Kuzma shocked Winnie Harlow with a Caribbean proposal: 'We're over the moon' Supermodel Winnie Harlow got the surprise of her life over Valentine's Day weekend. Harlow, 30, and her NBA star beau Kyle Kuzma, 29, revealed in an exclusive interview with Vogue, published Tuesday, that they got engaged during a romantic trip to Turks and Caicos. Disguised as a getaway for the long weekend, Kuzma chartered a private plane filled with roses, balloons, Champagne and chocolate to jet them off to the Caribbean islands. "We're over the moon," Harlow told Vogue. There, the 6-foot-9 Milwaukee Bucks newcomer "threw me off the scent" by choosing Feb. 13 for his proposal. Harlow gushed to Vogue. "I was just like, 'This is so cute for Valentine's Day, oh my gosh!'" The Cay Skin founder started to have her suspicions when Kuzma started reading her a poem he'd written but tried to not have any expectations. That is, until he read his final line: "Will you be my wife?" Vogue noted Harlow gave an immediate yes before her newly minted fiance could propose with the 8.5-carat oval-cut engagement ring he'd spent three months custom designing. Of the design, which features two baguette stones on the side, Kuzma said: "I never really asked her what type of ring she liked or anything. I just wanted to draw a picture of what I felt resembled her — something that was elegant, but very timeless and simplistic at the same time." To top it all off, both their families were there to celebrate the couple's milestone. A DJ played Jagged Edge's "Let's Get Married" as the happy couple arrived at their villa, and everyone enjoyed a surf and turf dinner on the beach. A fireworks show was the cherry on top for Kuzma and Harlow's engagement story. Just a week earlier, Harlow had a prime role in opening Christian Siriano's fall/winter 2025 runway show at New York Fashion Week. She took the lead as the first model to kick off the show, donning a black minidress with red draping in the skirt and off the shoulder, USA TODAY's Anika Reed reported from the star-studded event. The star-studded front row featured the likes of Katie Holmes, Whoopi Goldberg, Laverne Cox, Danielle Brooks and Julianne Hough. She also closed out the show with Siriano muse Coco Rocha, with the two holding hands for the grand finale. Kyle Kuzma 'slid in the DMs' twice to get Winnie Harlow's attention Kuzma and Harlow first connected "at the top of quarantine" in 2020, when the NBA forward messaged Harlow on Instagram. It was actually his second time reaching out to the model, because Harlow never saw his first message from a year prior. "He shot his shot, you know? He slid in the DMs," Harlow explained on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2021. "That was cute. I was like, "Oh hey, how has quarantine been? We kind of just started talking from there." "After a month of being on FaceTime for 24 hours every single day for a month, he was like, "You've got to come to LA.' And I've been in LA every since," she added.

Winnie Harlow Engaged To NBA Baller Kyle Kuzma, Model Flaunts Ring In Proposal Snaps
NBA baller Kyle Kuzma proposed to girlfriend, model Winnie Harlow, over Valentine's Weekend, with both taking to social media to share snaps and video of their engagement night. Both Kuzma and Harlow's Instagram accounts shared a carousel of snaps from their engagement Tuesday (Feb. 18), including several on what appears to be a private plane heavily decorated with roses. Winnie matched the decor in a red blouse and pants, topped with a red trench coat. All photos feature the runway pro showing off her ring before a video plays of the beauty walking into a private event and being surprised by loved ones as Jagged Edge's 'Let's Get Married (Remix)' plays in the background. Take a look at the snaps and clip below. The couple received congratulations from several of their industry pals, including LaLa Anthony, Draya Michele, BIA, Sevyn Streeter, Nazanin Mandi, Safaree Samuels, and others. Harlow and Kuzma have been dating since early 2020, when the athlete slid into the America's Next Top Model alum's DMs. While they moved to be closer to each other in April, they wouldn't confirm their romance until June 2020 when the pair went 'Instagram official.' The couple have been riding high ever since, with Harlow famously avoiding singer Usher's flirtatious serenade during his Las Vegas residency out of respect for the Milwaukee Buck back in 2023. News of Harlow and Kuzma's engagement follows the same for DeVon Franklin and celebrity trainer Maria Castillo, who announced their engagement one day before Valentine's Day.
