Winnie Harlow and Kyle Kuzma Announce Engagement After Romantic Turks and Caicos Proposal

2025-03-02

Model Winnie Harlow and NBA player Kyle Kuzma are engaged after a romantic proposal in Turks and Caicos on February 13, 2025. The couple, who began dating in 2020, shared the news via a joint Instagram post on February 18, featuring photos of Harlow showcasing her stunning 8.5-carat oval-cut diamond engagement ring.

Kuzma, a forward for the Milwaukee Bucks, meticulously planned the proposal, which took place during a private plane trip to the Caribbean island. The plane was decorated with roses, balloons, chocolate, and Champagne, leading Harlow to believe it was a Valentine’s Day surprise. However, Kuzma had a bigger plan in mind. He read a heartfelt poem he had written, ending with the line, “Will you be my wife?” Harlow said yes before Kuzma even presented the ring, which he designed himself over three months.

After landing, the couple was greeted by their families, who had secretly flown in to celebrate the engagement. The celebration continued with a beachside dinner, fireworks, and music, leaving Harlow and Kuzma feeling “over the moon,” as she told Vogue.

The couple’s relationship began during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, when they connected online after Kuzma reached out to Harlow on Instagram. Their bond grew quickly, with Harlow moving from New York to Los Angeles to be closer to Kuzma, who was then playing for the L.A. Lakers. Since then, they have been a fixture in the fashion and sports worlds, often supporting each other’s careers.

The engagement marks a new chapter for the couple, who have been open about their love and admiration for one another. Fans are eagerly awaiting details of their upcoming wedding.
