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 toPage 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.
