“I’m thrilled to have found my person, my partner in life who makes me want to be better, no matter what we’re doing,” Mitte gushed to the outlet. “Kennedy is my everything, and I can’t wait to officially start our life together and see what adventures life takes us on next.”
The couple dated for five years after being friends for a decade, according to PEOPLE. During a trip together, they realized their feelings had grown and decided to take their relationship to the next level.
