The world is buzzing with news of yet another celebrity engagement. Mariah Kennedy Cuomo, the 28-year-old daughter of former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Kerry Kennedy, is set to tie the knot with her longtime boyfriend, Tellef Lundevall. The picturesque proposal took place in the beautiful city of Milazzo, Sicily, where Mariah had been enjoying a vacation with her twin sisters and their father for the Thanksgiving holiday. Lundevall, 33, surprised Mariah by flying in to make his heartfelt proposal on a piece of land that holds significant family history – it used to be owned by Cuomo’s grandmother, Matilda Raffa, and has since been transformed into a stunning nature preserve.
Under the warm Italian sun, Lundevall led Mariah to a local landmark called the “Pool of Venus” as they enjoyed the picturesque scenery. Little did Mariah know that this romantic outing would end with a life-changing question. With a stunning backdrop behind them, Lundevall got down on one knee and shocked his bride-to-be with a beautiful engagement ring. Exclusive photos obtained by Page Six capture the priceless moment, showcasing Mariah’s radiant smile as she proudly displays her new ring.
Sources reveal that Lundevall took the traditional route and asked for Cuomo’s blessing before proposing to Mariah. The proud father couldn’t be happier to officially welcome Tellef into the family, expressing his joy for Mariah and the upcoming nuptials. However, he jokingly added that he hopes the couple will remain in New York after the wedding. This playful remark shows the close bond between the future father-in-law and son-in-law.
Tellef Lundevall became a familiar face during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic when he temporarily moved into the governor’s mansion with the Cuomo family. Referred to as “the boyfriend” during Andrew Cuomo’s daily briefings, Lundevall is the CEO and founder of Accelerated Digital Media, a digital marketing and analytics firm based in Chicago. Standing tall at 6-foot-4, Lundevall was previously on the football team at Brown University, where he crossed paths with Mariah. Their relationship has lasted for more than five years, and they recently relocated to New York City after Mariah completed her business school studies at Northwestern University. Mariah herself is an accomplished entrepreneur, being the founder and CEO of Socrates Social, a social media advisory firm for executives.
As news of Mariah Kennedy Cuomo’s engagement spreads, fans and well-wishers are eagerly anticipating the couple’s wedding. The stunning proposal in Sicily adds another romantic chapter to their love story. With their strong bond and shared achievements, Mariah and Tellef are poised to embark on an exciting journey together. As they continue to capture hearts with their love and success, may their union be blessed with happiness, prosperity, and a lifetime of unforgettable memories.
