Wembley Stadium tells fanswithout Taylor Swift tickets not to come as security tightens
It appears that Kennedy, the son of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the late Mary Richardson Kennedy, proposed with a solitaire, pear-shaped ring from Tiffany & Co., as the luxury jeweler was tagged in a photo in which he held one of their signature blue boxes.
Cheryl Hines, who wed RFK Jr. in 2014, congratulated the pair in the comments of the post.
“Welcome to the family Giulia!!!!! We love you so much!!” Hines wrote, adding multiple white hearts.
The engagement comes nearly 12 years after news of Kennedy’s split with Swift broke in October 2012. Swift, then 22, and Kennedy, then 18, first ignited buzz about a romance at the Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port, Mass, in July of that year.
It’s believed by some that Kennedy inspired Swift’s track "Begin Again," from her 2012 album "Red," one that she revisits on her Eras Tour. She is next set to perform at London’s at Wembley Stadium for five nights, beginning Thursday.
