Kevin Connolly is living life more fabulously than ever before. The beloved alumnus of "Entourage" popped the question to his long-term sweetheart, Zulay Henao, amidst a festive Fourth of July gathering in his hometown of Long Island, New York. Together, they share a four-year-old daughter named Kennedy. "It was an intimate, heartfelt, and overwhelmingly loving affair," Zulay reminisced about the proposal in an interview with People magazine, published on July 8. "Having Kennedy by our side made the moment truly unforgettable."
During this romantic interlude, Kevin, aged 51, presented Zulay, 46, with a bespoke emerald-cut diamond ring, nestled on a gleaming gold band, designed by the talented KC Sukamto. Following the proposal, the couple celebrated this milestone with a spectacular fireworks display and an intimate dinner surrounded by their beloved family.
Kevin and Zulay's seven-year journey began in 2018 when they crossed paths during the filming of season two of the Crackle drama "The Oath." Three years into their blossoming romance, they joyfully announced the arrival of their firstborn together, with Zulay sharing a snapshot of her burgeoning baby bump on Instagram, captioned "18 weeks."
In June 2021, after welcoming their cherished daughter into the world, Zulay expressed her initial observations about their newborn. "She's incredibly sweet and patient, not much of a crier, just endlessly curious about her surroundings," she penned in an Instagram Stories post at the time. "I'm in awe watching her. She also has a hearty appetite, just like her momma!"
It seems both parents adapted to their new roles with remarkable ease. "Mother’s Day must have been invented after witnessing your expertise," Kevin gushed about Zulay in an Instagram tribute in May 2023. "Kennedy and I cherish you beyond measure." Similarly, Zulay recently commended her partner for his exceptional fatherhood. "Happy Father’s Day, Papi," she wrote on Instagram to mark the occasion in June. "We adore you, babe. Thank you for being our sanctuary!"
