Winnie Harlow is engaged.
The model, 30, got engaged to NBA star Kyle Kuzma, on Feb. 13.
The couple announced the happy news via a joint Instagram post on Tuesday, Feb. 18.
The post featured a series of photos of the pair posing together on a plane. Harlow excitedly shows off her dazzling engagement ring in several of the photos.
The couple shared all the details of the intimate proposal with Vogue, telling the magazine that they had set off on a planned vacation to the Turks and Caicos. Kuzma chartered a private plane for the occasion and filled it with red roses, balloons, chocolate and champagne.
An unsuspecting Harlow thought all of the romantic accoutrements were simply for Valentine's Day but as it turned out, Kuzma had a much bigger surprise up his sleeve.
After boarding the plane, the athlete asked Harlow to sit down next to him and he began to read her a poem he had written.
“For a split second in my head, I thought, 'This would be so cute if this was an engagement,' ” Harlow recalled to the outlet. “But I’m also not the type of person who wants to guess or wants to spoil a surprise. So it just was a fleeting thought in my head.”
Her hunch was confirmed when Kuzma recited the final line of his heartfelt poem: "Will you marry me?" He then presented her with an 8.5-carat, oval-cut diamond ring, which he spent three months designing himself.
“I never really asked her what type of ring she liked or anything,” he told Vogue. “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.”
After the couple landed on the Caribbean island, Harlow excitedly started calling her loved ones to tell them the news.
However, her sister didn't pick up and her mom abruptly ended the call after saying she didn't have time to talk. When Harlow and Kuzma got to their villa, she understood why. She found both of their families were waiting to join in the celebration in person.
The group enjoyed an elegant dinner on the beach, capped off with a fireworks display.
Now that she and Kuzma are engaged and looking forward to a wedding, they are feeling "over the moon,” she told Vogue.
The couple first connected online during the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, Harlow told the late Stephen "tWitch" Boss while appearing on The Ellen Degeneres Show in 2020.
She shared that their relationship was almost a missed connection because Kuzma first tried to reach out to her on Instagram in 2019 but she never got the message.
However, once they started talking, they never wanted to stop.
After a few months of chatting nearly 24/7, Harlow decided to move from New York City to Los Angeles to be with Kuzma, who played for the L.A. Lakers at the time.
