But now that the word is out officially, she said that she is really excited to finally be able to say and share the good news to the entire world that she and Justin are engaged.
Also during the event, Kate Upton was named as the First Lady of the Longines Kentucky Oaks Survivors Parade.
Other than Kate Upton, other celebrities who were present during the event were actor Josh Duhamel, musicians Jordan Smith and Ingrid Michaelson, actor Adrian Grenier, and TV personalities Carson Kressley and Gayle King.
Kate Upton is a horse racing fanatic. Apart from being a long-time equestrian, she is actually the Breeder’s Cup ambassador and was chosen for her love of the sport.
Late last year, she went to the Keeneland race course in Lexington, Kentucky to witness the history where American Pharaoh beat Effinex at the Breeder’s Cup Classic by six and a half lengths.
Upton says that she was lucky enough to present the trophy to the first Grand Slam titlist in horseracing history and she really felt it like a great honor.
American Pharaoh previously won the Triple Crown, that includes the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness, and the Belmont Stakes races, before nailing his final major win last year.
The three-year-old bay colt was eventually retired from racing and subsequently set out on what is expected to be a lucrative career as a stud.
