Kelly asked Atwell to marry him during their trip to Venice in 2023. Kelly shared an emotional Instagram photo announcing their engagement. Atwell flaunted her diamond ring to the camera as the two of them cuddled up on a sofa and took a photo.


The photo was posted with the caption: “Lucky me. Arrived in Venice at 10 am. Around midday the love of my life and I got engaged in the kitchen of this strange apartment full of porcelain ducks, with a bloke outside the window murdering 'My Way' on the accordion,” the music producer wrote in the caption. “A perfect start to the rest of our lives together. I’d never had any interest in getting married … until I met this extraordinary woman. Happy as a clam. ❤️💍.”


Atwell stated in a July 2023 interview with the Daily Mail that she enjoyed the proposal's informal nature. "My fiancé was in his [underwear] in the kitchen, and there was an accordion playing outside our window, which was timed perfectly but not planned," she said.
