Model Winnie Harlow Says ‘Yes’ to 3-Stone Engagement Ring

Harlow’s partner, NBA player Kyle Kuzma, worked with Vobara to design the ring, which features oval and pear-shaped diamonds.

Winnie Harlow and Kyle Kuzma, pictured in David Yurman’s 2024 holiday campaign, are engaged after almost five years of dating. Kuzma proposed on Valentine’s Day with a three-stone ring, a style that continues to be popular for engagement rings. Pictured at right is a three-stone ring from Stephanie Gottlieb Fine Jewelry featuring a 3-carat oval-cut center stone flanked by tapered baguette side stones.
Editor's Note: This story was updated post publication to reflect the jeweler's confirmation on carat size of Harlow's ring.

Los Angeles—Model Winnie Harlow and NBA player Kyle Kuzma are engaged.

Kuzma surprised Harlow with an engagement ring he designed with the help of Miami-based brand Vobara, which has designed jewelry for Souljia Boy, DJ Khaled, Rick Ross, and Jake Paul, and their jeweler Levi DiVincenzo.

The proposal took place on Valentine’s Day during the couple’s trip to Turks and Caicos.

The couple announced their engagement on Instagram, with many photos showcasing the proposal.

DiVincenzo confirmed that Harlow's ring features 8.5 total carats of natural diamonds with a 7-carat oval-cut diamond at its center, which is flanked by pear-shaped side stones.

"Kuzma was a pleasure to deal with [and] brought a lot of energy to the project," said DiVincenzo.

On his design of the ring, Kuzma told Vogue, “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.”

Three-stone rings, worn by Grace Kelly and, more recently, Meghan Markle, appeal to those who want a timeless look.

The style remains on-trend in the bridal market, landing a spot as one of National Jeweler’s “5 Engagement Ring Trends Expected to Rule 2025.”

“Three-stone engagement rings can symbolize a couple’s past, present, and future,” said Jillian Sassone, founder and creative director of Marrow Fine, who added that the style also, “offers the perfect chance to put a unique spin on a classic style, whether it’s mixing shapes, playing with unexpected proportions, or incorporating colored gemstones.”

In the case of Harlow’s ring, Kuzma chose to play with mixed shapes between the three stones, with the side stones being a fancy pear-shaped cut, which is trendy as well.

If Harlow and Kuzma look extra-familiar to jewelers, that’s because they’ve been featured in a campaign for one of the industry’s biggest brands.

The two were seen together in David Yurman’s “Moments of Joy” holiday campaign that came out in October 2024.

But that is not how they met.

The Milwaukee Bucks small forward and former “America’s Next Top Model” contestant from 2014 have been together since 2020 when Harlow confirmed they were a couple via her Instagram.

It is said that Kuzma first reached out back in 2019, sending Harlow a message over Instagram, but she never replied until he sent another a year later, according to Brides
