“Heated Rivalry” star Hudson Williams got things serious with his girlfriend on Valentine’s Day.
The actor paid tribute to his partner on his Instagram Story on Saturday, but did not reveal her name.
Williams’ post featured multiple photos of the couple, including two cute mirror selfies, as well as snapshots of them FaceTiming and lying in bed together.
There was also a photo of Williams’ girlfriend sitting in a booth next to his “Heated Rivals” co-star Connor Storey, with a red heart drawn around her face.
“Happy Valentine’s Day,” Williams, 25, wrote on the montage, adding: “Gold Mazda protégé who has been with me since 2000 smokes and shrieks and has no job.”
Ever since he shot to stardom playing a secret hockey player on the hit Canadian TV series, Williams has kept his personal life private.
But after celebrity gossip brand DeuxMoi reported in December that Williams had a girlfriend who is a tattoo artist, Williams publicly clapped back at the account.
“As you know, I have completely fallen out of love with Dumois,” he commented in a now-deleted Instagram post.
That same month, Williams told Deadline that speculation about her and Story’s sexual orientation was “part of celebrity nature.”
“When you dream of being in the public eye, I don’t think there’s ever a question of wanting some privacy,” he said.
“But of course I agree. I want queer people to tell queer stories, but there’s also this element of Conor and I. We’re best friends and I love expressing that physically,” Williams added.
Before starring in “Heated Rivals,” Williams worked as a server at a spaghetti factory in Canada.
He admitted on Evan Ross Katz’s podcast in January that dealing with sudden fame was “tiring.”
“It’s nice when people admire your work, but it also means sometimes we get pulled aside to take pictures, even when we go to nooks and crannies in places we never expected to be found,” he explained.
“I have to look good because I can’t just wear sweatpants and just look terrible like I always did,” Williams continued. “It’s all exhausting.”
