Here's everything to know about Antoni Porowski's ex-fiancé, Kevin Harrington.

He started dating Porowski in 2019

Harrington and Porowski were first linked in the fall of 2019. On Oct. 31 of that year, they attended Heidi Klum's Halloween party together dressed as Blockbuster-themed zombies.

Porowski later revealed that the pair started seeing each other in July. "Here's to three years of asking our friends to take way too many pics like these," Porowski wrote on Instagram to celebrate their three-year anniversary on July 20, 2022.

Their relationship moved quickly

After less than a year together, Harrington and Porowski's romance sped up during the COVID-19 pandemic. In March 2020, Porowski was filming Queer Eye in Austin, Texas, so Harrington came down from New York City to visit. The pair only planned to spend four days together, but then a lockdown happened.

"It came to a shutdown in New York — there was no toilet paper — and we decided to stay in Austin and fostered a dog," Porowski explained to PEOPLE in 2022. "We went from being in a relationship and each having our own apartments and not having a dog, to living in the same place with a dog."

The reality TV star added, "It escalated quickly. But I don't have any complaints, which is kind of nice. When something is stable and really good — and you communicate a lot, and you check in with each other and with your own therapist about it — I feel like that's kind of the key."

He shares a dog named Neon with Porowski

In March 2020, Porowski and Harrington started fostering their rescue dog Neon. A year later, Porowski reflected on their journey to becoming pet parents. He wrote on Instagram, "It doesn't matter that the reason we went to [Austin Pets Alive!] a year ago we had every intention of fostering the cute fluffy husky we saw online. The important part is that we left with neon. happy 4th birthday you weird monster."

Neon was featured in season 6 of Queer Eye and she has her own Instagram account with an impressive following.

He works in advertising

Harrington is a freelance creative strategy director. "I've spent the last 10 years helping a variety of different companies advertise, define and evolve their brands," Harrington explained on his website. "From sneakers to snack food, animal shelters to alcoholic seltzers — I've worked on it all, and have loved every minute of it," he added.

Recently, Harrington has delved into more entertainment strategy projects with NBC and Peaco*ck, including the shows A Friend of the Family and Love Island USA. In the past, he's also worked on campaigns for Adidas, Reese's and Lucky Charms.

He traveled all over the world with Porowski

Looking at Harrington's Instagram, it's clear he loves to travel. He has Instagram highlights from Peru, Poland, the Czech Republic, Italy, France, Thailand, India, Dubai and more.

It seems like traveling is a passion that he and Porowski share, too. Throughout their relationship, they've been on many trips together. In May 2022, the couple hiked for four days on the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu.

He's friends with Taylor Swift and Gigi Hadid

Harrington became close friends with Porowski's A-lister group, including Taylor Swift and Gigi Hadid.

In April 2023, Harrington, Porowski and Hadid spent a day at Disney World in celebration of the model's 28th birthday. Photos from the magical outing were shared on Instagram.

He and Porowski got engaged in 2022

After three years of dating, the couple revealed their engagement on Instagram in November 2022.

"I really hope the wedding photos are less blurry," Porowski captioned a selfie of the pair to announce the news.

Many of his fellow Queer Eye costars were quick to congratulate the couple. "So damn happy for you two! You both got a good one!!! 😭😭😭😭," commented Bobby Berk.

Tan France and Jonathon Van Ness even offered their help for the upcoming nuptials. "I volunteer as wedding selfie-photographer," wrote France, while Van Ness said he is "already sourcing my flower girl looks!!!"

He and Porowski split in November 2023

A year after getting engaged, Harrington and Porowski decided to go their separate ways and call off their wedding. A rep for the Canadian TV personality told PEOPLE that the pair "remain focused on work, and are surrounding themselves with friends during this time."
