Overview
- Kenworthy proposed to Rigby during a private Mallorca getaway on Tuesday, August 4, 2026, kneeling on a cliff before friends surprised the pair from a chartered boat.
- The proposal was staged as a multi-part surprise that began with a private dinghy from the St. Regis, a hike to the cliff with a picnic and margaritas, and a return to a boat where six friends were waiting to celebrate.
- The couple told People the story in an exclusive interview and Kenworthy posted photos to Instagram with the caption “He said he’d think about it! 🥹💍,” confirming the engagement publicly.
- Kenworthy and Rigby reconnected at a mutual friend’s party in Guadalajara in 2024, dated long-distance between Los Angeles and Sydney for about a year, and moved to New York together roughly a year ago.
- No wedding date has been announced, and coverage highlights both the personal milestone for Kenworthy—the openly gay four-time Olympic freestyle skier—and how the couple chose to share the moment through mainstream and LGBTQ media.
