James Kennedy, a figure from the reality television show "Vanderpump Rules," has announced his engagement to his girlfriend, Jordan Meyers. Kennedy shared the news via an Instagram post on Tuesday, June 30, stating, "We're engaged!! I love you, adventures with you forever and ever." He also expressed gratitude to Meyers for "making me the luckiest guy in the world."
The couple's announcement also confirmed that Meyers is four months pregnant with their first child. Kennedy revealed in a statement to People that they had been dating for eight months and had kept their relationship out of the public eye until recently. "We are thrilled to share that Jordan and I are expecting our first child together," Kennedy said, adding that they were "sharing it publicly" now.
Kennedy noted that their families and friends had known about the pregnancy for some time, but the couple decided to wait to announce it publicly while they focused on "building [their] relationship." Meyers described an "instant spark" upon meeting Kennedy and called the experience of their growing love and impending parenthood "the most incredible experience."
The engagement follows a period where Kennedy's relationship status has been a subject of public interest. Reports of him expecting a child with a "mystery woman" surfaced before he identified Meyers. The couple made their red-carpet debut earlier this month.
Kennedy's past relationships include a brief engagement to Raquel Leviss in 2021. He also dated Ally Lewber from 2022 to 2024. A domestic violence arrest involving Kennedy in the past was cleared by prosecutors.
