Mariah Kennedy-Cuomo is engaged!

The 28-year-old daughter of Kerry Kennedy and Andrew Cuomo revealed on Instagram that she got engaged in Italy over the Thanksgiving holiday to her longtime boyfriend, Tellef Lundevall.

She shared a couple of photos of the big event, starting with a wide shot of Lundevall, 33, getting down on one knee on an ocean cliffside as he proposed. A second shot showed the pair holding each other and smiling widely in front of an ocean background.

Kennedy-Cuomo’s new engagement ring — with a square cut diamond — could be seen on full display as she held her hand up to her fiancé’s chest.

The engagement was a surprise, and Lundevall had flown into Sicily during the Cuomo family’s Thanksgiving vacation to Italy, to pop the question, according to Page Six. Kennedy-Cuomo’s sisters Cara and Michaela and their father and former New York governor were also on the trip.

Lundevall secured the blessing from his soon to be father-in-law before putting the plans into motion. After the sun finally came out following a rainy morning, he led Kennedy-Cuomo down to a landmark near the cliff called the Pools of Venus where they officially got engaged, an insider told the outlet.

The place where the engagement took place was also of major significance as it happened in a nature preserve land previously owned by Matilda Raffa Cuomo's family in Milazzo, Sicily, the insider added.

The couple have been together for more than five years and Lundevall even moved in with his future in-laws at the governor’s mansion in New York when Cuomo, who was governor of New York from 2011 until his resignation in 2021, was elected. Former Gov. Cuomo even referred to him as “the boyfriend” during some of his press briefings, noting that the family “like the boyfriend.” according to the Washington Post.

Lundevall was a former football player at Brown University and briefly played professional basketball in Norway before moving on to run his own digital media consultancy, called Accelerated Digital Media, in Chicago, according to the outlet.
