It feels like spring has truly arrived, not just outside, but in the world of young love too! Over the weekend, Lola Grace Consuelos — daughter of Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos — marked a very special relationship milestone, and fans couldn’t get enough of it.
On Sunday, the 23-year-old posted a sweet tribute celebrating “another year of pure magic” with her boyfriend, Cassius Kidston.
And judging by her words, it’s clear these two are still very much smitten!
A Romance That Started at NYU
While Lola is a born-and-raised New Yorker and Cassius hails from across the pond in England, fate brought them together during their college days at New York University.
It’s still a little unclear exactly when their romance kicked off, but we do know that Cassius first made an appearance on Lola’s social media back in October 2022.
At that point, he had already graduated with a degree in sports management, while Lola was in her final stretch working toward her music and production degree. Talk about a power couple in the making!
Dressed to Impress for a Glamorous Outing
Lola’s recent Instagram post gave fans a peek into their fabulous life together.
She shared a series of snaps showing her and Cassius looking seriously glamorous at a chic outdoor event.
Dressed to the nines, the pair looked every bit the stylish young couple, soaking up the good vibes and sunshine.
Cassius Kidston’s Impressive Family Connections
Cassius isn’t just winning in the romance department — he’s also got quite the impressive resume himself.
Since February, he’s been working as a sports talent sales assistant at Creative Arts Agency, one of the biggest names in entertainment.
Before that, he sharpened his skills at his father’s company, Kidston SA, working as a sales and research analyst.
His dad, Simon Kidston, is a major name in the world of luxury cars — often referred to as the “car dealer for billionaires.”
With clients like Ralph Lauren and Pink Floyd’s Nick Mason, Simon’s reputation spans the globe, from Dubai to London to Milan and Geneva.
A Family Legacy of Style, Speed, and Success
And the Kidston family history doesn’t stop there! Cassius’ cousin is Cath Kidston, the well-known designer behind the Cath Kidston brand.
Although Cath sold her company years ago, her name still lives on through an online presence, selling everything from clothes to home furnishings.
Even further back in the family tree, Cassius’ great-uncle Glen Kidston made a name for himself as an aviator and racing driver for Bentley in the roaring 1920s.
Clearly, the Kidstons know a thing or two about making history.
