According to People, Wesley, 41, and Kuckenburg, 25, have been dating since at least the end of 2022.

He responded with a line of hearts. According to People, he referred to her as his favorite person in a birthday homage he made in June.

They have always kept their relationship low-profile, and that has not altered. No lavish unveiling, no press. A moment, a caption, and a still image.

Wesley said earlier in March that laughter was the glue that held their relationship together. “Laughing is all we do. Honestly, it's the most important thing,” he told People. The audience was unaware of the impending proposal at the time.

Wesley's previous marriage was to Ines de Ramon. Their divorce was finalized in the beginning of 2024. Considering how secretive the pair is, supporters may anticipate a small wedding date.
