JAMES Kennedy has popped the question to his girlfriend Raquel Leviss in a Coachella-themed proposal.
The couple first met in 2016 while at a New Year’s Eve party where the DJ was performing.
James, 29, has officially proposed to Raquel, after five years of an off-and-on relationship.
“James proposed at the iconic Empire Polo Fields of ‘RACHELLA’ Friday night…” the soon to be bride wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of her diamond ring.
“And I said YES! I’m over the Coachella moon.”
“I’m one lucky guy. Thank you God!” the TV personality replied in the comments section.
The Bravo star also shared his own post of the exciting news, while he snapped a selfie of their smooch.
“THE LOVE OF MY LIFE, said yes,” he gushed.
The couple celebrated their engagement with an intimate party for two, dancing in an empty field in front of a DJ booth.

The pair’s Vanderpump Rules co-stars rushed to the comments to offer their congratulations to their newly engaged friends.
“Wooooohooooooo,” gushed Scheana Shay, and “Yes amazing,” shared Lala Kent’s fiancée Randal.
Kennedy has mentioned previously that he hoped to marry Raquel, as he recently appeared on an episode of Overserved with Lisa Vanderpump.
“You won’t find anyone else that’s more on your side than that girl,” the show host told her previous employee.
“Well, can you keep a secret? … I love Raquel so much, you know that,” he replied.
“She really has helped me, and you’ve seen everything she’s stuck by me with. I really couldn’t imagine myself with anyone else on this planet. There’s no ‘buts’ — I think I’m going to ask her to marry me.”
“That will be the best decision you’ve ever made,” Lisa told him, before offering some advice on proposal ideas.
James and Raquel have faced their fair share of challenges in their relationship, as the DJ has suffered from addiction.
In July of 2020 the reality star graciously thanked his now-fiancée for her support through his most difficult moments.
“Thank you to my rock @raquelleviss for getting me here I couldn’t of [sic] done this without you my love,” he wrote on Instagram.
“And thank you all for the support this past year.”
The couple first met in 2016, but hit a road block when two friends of the show accused James of cheating on Raquel in season five.
In season six, fans speculated that the DJ could actually be gay, after several flirty encounters with Logan Noh.
James was once again accused of cheating on Raquel in season seven when a girl named Hope insisted that she slept with the TV star while at Coachella.
The musician later lost his job at SUR due to his bad behavior on several occasions.
The London native spoke to People about his battle with addiction after celebrating nine months of sobriety, saying: “I never realized how much alcohol was slowing me down and making me procrastinate in big life things that I could be pursuing now.
“My career is getting even bigger and my deejaying is really taking off so I’m taking it seriously. I’m going to take over!” he revealed.
“I’m dealing with all the anxiety and pre-show jitters without drowning myself in vodka,” he added, then. “You’ll see this season what I do to actually get over alcohol, it was a process for sure. I take it day by day and keep it gangsta.”
