Grant Kenny has sparked speculation that he has popped the question to his girlfriend Stojanka Bulic.
The former Ironman and canoeist, 61, was linked to the make-up artist last year and has been supporting her during an alleged battle with breast cancer in recent months.
Now, the couple have been at the centre of rumours that they are engaged, after Stoj’s close friend Sylvia Jeffreys shared a photo of her at a mystery event.
In the photo, Stoj is seen wearing a white jumpsuit as she smiled alongside Slyvia and Jasmine Yarbrough, while a luxurious outdoor table was set up in the background.
A source has since said Women’s Day that the celebration could have been a low-key engagement party for Grant and Stoj amid speculation of a proposal.
They said Grant was rumored to have proposed to Stoj during a lavish trip to Italy following her battle with breast cancer, but have yet to confirm the news.
“If Grant hasn’t proposed to Stoj yet, it’s only a matter of weeks,” they said.
‘After Stoj was cleared for breast cancer, Grant surprised her with a first-class trip to her favorite place in the world, Italy.

‘There are all sorts of rumours that he may have proposed to her there, but they are both being very coy about when they plan to tie the knot.’
Daily Mail Australia has contacted Stoj representatives for comment.
Stoj was reportedly diagnosed with breast cancer in January, 22 years after her mother tragically died from the disease.
She is believed to have had a lumpectomy after being diagnosed with invasive lobular carcinoma, a type of cancer of the milk-producing glands of the breast.
“I’ve been dealing with it and I’ve had the lump removed. Everything is fine… (the) cancer has been eliminated,” he said, according to Women’s Day.
“But there was a lot of information I had to take in, and I’m going to do chemo and radiation, and I thought I’d get this done before all my hair falls out, which is already starting to happen.”
Her close friend Jasmine, who is married to Karl Stefanovic, paid tribute to Stoj’s “bravery” in an emotional message shared on International Women’s Day.
“This International Women’s Day post is dedicated to you, Stojsy. Your strength, resilience and courage over these past few months have been so inspiring,” she enthused.
Rumors have swirled that they are engaged, after Stoj’s friend Sylvia Jeffreys shared a photo of herself dressed in white at a mystery event (pictured with Jasmine Yarbrough).
“And you never failed to find humor in every moment. I didn’t think I could love you more, but I do.”
Grant and Stoj were first seen together publicly in January 2023 at Mooloolaba Beach on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast.
They later debuted their romance in Paris at the wedding of millionaire chicken heiress Tamie Ingham and chef Guillaume Brahimi in June last year.
Despite being linked to a number of very famous Australian names, the couple tend to keep their romance relatively private.
Stoj is a makeup artist and has worked with very famous stars including Hailey Bieber and Rita Ora.
In 2002, Stoj began working on editorial and commercial campaigns, with Australian clientele including Cate Blanchett, Hugh Jackman and Chris Hemsworth.
Eight years later, she moved to New York and began working with renowned makeup artist and cosmetics brand owner Pat McGrath.
The former Ironman and canoeist, 61, was linked to the make-up artist last year and has been supporting her during an alleged battle with breast cancer in recent months.
She subsequently collaborated with luxury fashion brands such as Dior, Balenciaga, Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Versace and Louis Vuitton.
While based in the United States, she also expanded her celebrity clientele to include Naomi Campbell, Lana Del Rey and Stella McCartney.
Grant was previously married to Lisa Curry, but the couple went their separate ways in 2009 and their divorce was finalized nearly a decade later in 2017.
Together they welcomed three children: son Jett, 29, and daughters Morgan, 31, and Jaimi, who tragically died at age 33 from complications of alcoholism and anorexia in September 2020.
