James Kennedy is engaged to Jordan Meyers after a Lake Como proposal

James Kennedy is engaged, and he made sure you would hear it from him first.

The DJ and former "Vanderpump Rules" fixture announced on Tuesday, June 30 that he proposed to his girlfriend Jordan Meyers at Villa d'Este on Lake Como, the kind of Italian hotel that turns up in the background of other people's honeymoons. He shared it the modern way, with an Instagram carousel of the moment: down on one knee, the water behind them.

The receipt

Kennedy kept the caption short. "We're engaged!! I love you, adventures with you forever and ever. Thank you for making me the luckiest guy in the world," he wrote on the post. Meyers answered in the comments with "Can't wait for forever w you my angel," per EntertainmentNow's read of the thread. TMZ was first to report the engagement, and the rest of the entertainment desks caught up within the hour.

About that timeline

Here is the part the comment sections cannot leave alone. Kennedy only confirmed he was dating Meyers back in June, after months of speculation, and confirmed in the same breath that they were expecting a baby. "We are thrilled to share that Jordan and I are expecting our first child together," he said in a statement at the time. He added that the two had "previously kept our relationship out of the public eye" and wanted to build things privately before going public.

People reported the couple had been together about eight months, with Meyers roughly four months along. So in one summer: public debut, pregnancy reveal, and now a Lake Como proposal. The man does not idle.

Their first real red carpet as a couple came at the grand opening of the Vanderpump Hotel in Las Vegas, where Meyers debuted her baby bump in a pink sequined gown while Kennedy posed beside her for the photographers.

For anyone who skipped a few seasons

Kennedy is the London-born DJ who started out bussing tables at Lisa Vanderpump's restaurant SUR before spending a decade turning "Vanderpump Rules" into a running record of his own romantic wreckage. His breakups played out on Bravo cameras, from Kristen Doute onward. This time the courtship happened mostly off screen, which for James Kennedy might be the actual plot twist.

Two things are now on the calendar: a baby, then a wedding. No date on either yet.
