Hot Details on Devon Lee Carlson’s Engagement Ring
Devon Lee Carlson’s engagement ring from hubby Duke is indeed a stunner, featuring a 3-carat, round, brilliant-cut center diamond with two smaller round-cut diamonds on a rose gold band.
Since Duke doesn’t do social media, and the lovely duo keeps their love life private, there are no exact details of the actual proposal.
Devon posted her engagement ring on her Instagram and on her stories, prompting everyone from Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, Gabbriette, Anastasia Karanikolaou, Alex Consani, and Clairo to Francesca Aiello, Emily Ratajkowski, and Dua Lipa to post warm, heartfelt congratulatory messages.
Four Years of Love
Devon and Duke first met in the backstage area of a Lana Del Rey concert sometime in early 2022. Duke is the cover model of Lana Del Rey’s album, Norman Fucking Rockwell. He also stars in the music video and short film.
They crossed paths again at a friend’s birthday party, and this time they had more time to get to know each other. Speaking with Nylon, Devon recalled, “I met Duke at a Lana Del Rey concert, backstage. A couple months later, I was at a party, and he was there, and then we found out we had the same birthday.”
Duke fell in love with her and her warm and vibrant personality. “When I was first getting to know Devon, the thing that intrigued me most about her was her ability to disarm anyone who she is speaking to with her kindness and warmth,” he told Nylon. “She treats everyone with the same respect regardless of who they are to her.”

Miley complimented their custom phone case, and they ran back to their car to give her one. Miley posted it with her selfie in thanks on Twitter, and demand for their cute phone cases skyrocketed overnight.
Devon and her family created a website and had to keep up with the orders. The brand became popular among celebrities, including Bella Hadid, Dua Lipa, Halsey, and Lana Del Rey, who also figures in her story later on.
She also became a stylist and fashion designer in 2020, working on campaigns for Louis Vuitton and Marc Jacobs. Devon styled Olivia Rodrigo’s Good 4 U music video and appeared on Charli XCX’s Speed Drive music video
Getting to Know Duke Nicholson
Actor Duke Nicholson, born on August 3, 1999, in Los Angeles, California, is a private guy and doesn’t have any social media. But the world has fallen head over heels over Jack Nicholson’s grandson, for his good looks and talent on screen.
His parents are Jennifer Nicholson, Jack’s daughter and a fashion designer, and retired pro surfer Mark Norfleet.
Yes, he was the model on Lana Del Rey’s Norman Fucking Rockwell album cover, and he also appeared in the short film and music video of the same name. Lana describes him as “like family.”
Speaking with W Magazine, he recalled, “Lana is a friend of mine, and she called me and said, ‘Hey, we’re doing the album cover tomorrow. You want to be on it?’ I just went with it. I don’t try to analyze things too much.”
He soon found himself on the Venice Film Festival red carpet with Oscar Isaac and Jason Momoa, his co-stars in Julian Schnabel’s In the Hand of Dante.
You may also know him for his other memorable roles, such as in Jordan Peele’s Us and The Deputy, directed by his friend and collaborator Matt Sukkar. Along with him are an ensemble cast: William H. Macy, Tiffany Haddish, Stephen Dorff, Julia Fox, Billie Lourd, Devon Ross, and Colleen Camp.
Speaking with Highland Film Group, he recalled his career start, elaborating, “My interest in film was definitely there, but I didn’t really think about it as a career path until I was probably 15 or 16. Then again, I didn’t really think about anything as a career path, so I guess it was just the first avenue I wanted to go down.
