How many people can say they've gotten engaged on a private jet? As of this month, NBA star Kyle Kuzma and his girlfriend, Winnie Harlow, can! The couple announced their engagement on February 18 by sharing a collection of photos from the lavish proposal on Instagram. The bride-to-be gave a glimpse of her dazzling three-stone engagement ring, which is one of The Knot's top engagement ring trends of 2025.
The couple opened up about the surprise gesture, which took place five days prior in Turks and Caicos, in an interview with Vogue. As the couple boarded their chartered plane, the athlete—who currently plays for the Milwaukee Bucks—began reading his girlfriend a poem. Considering the aircraft was decked out with roses, petals and champagne, Harlow said, "For a split second in my head I thought, 'This would be so cute if this was an engagement.' 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."
Sure enough, Kuzma concluded by asking his longtime love to marry him. Read on for more details about Winnie Harlow and Kyle Kuzma's engagement from the eye-popping specs of her trendy engagement ring to the sweetest details from their love story.

Winnie Harlow's engagement ring from Kyle Kuzma is an 8.5-carat oval-shaped diamond flanked by two baguette side stones. Kuzma designed the ring himself, telling Vogue, "I never really asked her what type of ring she liked or anything.

He spent three months working on the engagement ring design and six months on the proposal plans. But in reality, Kuzma decided he would propose to Harlow in Turks and Caicos back in 2022. The couple shared their first vacation together in the tropical Caribbean hotspot, and it was on that trip that Kuzma realized he wanted to go there to pop the question one day.
After the proposal, Harlow tried calling her sister and her mom to tell them the happy news, but she was surprised when they didn't answer. Much to her delight, her family was waiting for them at their oceanfront villa. That evening, the fiancés enjoyed an outdoor dinner with their loved ones, which concluded with a colorful fireworks display. "We're over the moon," Harlow told the outlet.

Kyle Kuzma and Winnie Harlow have been together since 2020. Kuzma actually reached out to the model on Instagram the year before, but she never saw his message. They later reconnected online during the pandemic, and their early days as a couple may have influenced their aviation-inspired proposal. In a February 2023 interview with GQ, Kuzma revealed that a private jet was involved in some of their earliest dates. "The pandemic [had] just started, and this was at the time nobody was flying in airports because it was like low-key sketchy," he told the outlet. "So, I was like, 'Alright, well, you need to fly out here private.' This was the first time we met. I really wanted to see her and the safest thing was that jet. And that's how we found love."
Later that year, Harlow moved from New York to Los Angeles to be with her boyfriend, who was playing for the Lakers at the time. They hard-launched their relationship on Instagram in June of that year, and the rest was history.
