Celebrity chef Mario Carbone and celebrity publicist Cait Bailey are engaged

Celebrity chef Mario Carbone and publicist Cait Bailey are engaged, a source tells Page Six.
Spies tell us Bailey has been swanning around Fashion Week, including Graydon Carter’s glamorous party for Air Mail and the PatBo runway show, wearing a “massive rock” on her ring finger. The sparkler was also seen on her finger during Kering’s Caring for Women Dinner, which she attended with Carbone this week.
Bailey — who works at Align PR and whose clients include podcast and Tik Tok stars like “Call Her Daddy’s” Alex Cooper, Alix Earle and Charli and Dixie D’Amelio — and Carbone have been dating for six years after meeting at his eponymous restaurant.
A source tells us the famed chef popped the question while they were on the Amalfi Coast in Italy this summer. We’re told the proposal happened in front of their dog at their rented home.
We hear the spot is special since the pair have been vacationing there since they first began dating.
Carbone, the red sauce joint on Thompson Street, is one of the hardest reservations in town, attracting A-listers and billionaires like Rihanna , Mariah Carey , Leonardo DiCaprio, Lebron James and Jeff Bezos .
Julia Fox and Kanye West dined at the restaurant in both the Miami and NYC. And while don’t keep count, we’ll take Vanity Fair at it word when it said that “over the course of a workweek, Page Six wrote no fewer than 17 stories referencing the couple’s dinners there.”
According to a New York Times article about Bailey titled, “Cait Bailey Can’t Avoid the Spotlight,” she was with “Pretty Little Liars” actress Shay Mitchell at the Greenwich Village spot, who had texted Carbone about a reservation.
“I told her we were full, but if you want to join us, you can,” Carbone told the paper. “She said, ‘Great, I’ll take it.’ And that’s how I met Cait.”
Bailey and Carbone, who owns Major Food Group with Rich Torrisi and Jeff Zalaznick, split their time between New York and Miami, where they moved during the pandemic.
The Times article also reported a conversation Bailey had back in December during Art Basel in Miami Beach, when a guest asked her: “When are you and Mario going to get engaged?”
“‘Oh, I can’t take on one more project right now,” she said. “He’ll know when I’m ready.”
