‘Heated Rivalry’ star Hudson Williams hard-launches longtime girlfriend

Turns out Hudson Williams has long been committed to someone after all, as he revealed that he is in a long-term relationship with a mystery woman on Valentine’s Day. 

Without naming his girlfriend, the “Heated Rivalry” star hard-launched his relationship on his Instagram Story on Saturday, Feb. 14, sharing snippets of their favorite memories as a pair.

One of the photos shows the couple getting cozy on a couch, while other snaps feature the pair on a couple’s getaway, on a video call, and at a fancy date night. Perhaps the highlight of the Story was the appearance of Williams’ “Heated Rivalry” co-star, Connor Storrie, indicating that he had grown close to her as well.

“Happy Valentine’s Day,” he captioned his post.

The photos confirmed that the couple had been romantically involved even before Williams’ fame grew with the popularity of the sports drama “Heated Rivalry,” as mentioned in his post.

“With me since my 2020 gold Mazda protege smoked and squealed and I had no job,” he wrote.

Despite revealing his partner’s face, Williams has long been firm about keeping his personal life away from the public eye. In December 2025, anonymous celebrity insider Deuxmoi claimed in its podcast that the Canadian actor is in a relationship with a tattoo artist.

“You know what… I’ve grown quite unfond of you deuxmoi,” he said in a now-deleted Instagram post.

The actor also addressed speculations about his sexual orientation in a Deadline interview, where he reiterated that he wants “privacy” in his life outside the camera. 

“I think there’s never a question for me, when I would dream of becoming in the public eye, that I would want just a level of privacy,” he said.

Williams has gained a massive following after starring in HBO Max and Crave’s boys’ love (BL) hockey drama “Heated Rivalry,” which also stars Storrie. Season two of the show was confirmed last year, but the creators have remained tight-lipped about what fans can expect.
