Golden Globes 2026: Heated Rivalry Boys Walk Red Carpet

If you’re anything like us, you’ll have most likely spent the last 48 hours engrossed in the compelling love story of hockey players Shane and Ilya.

Yes, after taking the rest of the world by storm, Heated Rivalry fever has now reached the UK, with the drama that’s got everyone talking premiering on Sky and Now over the weekend.

On Sunday night, fresh from the show’s official British debut, series leads Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie made their biggest public appearance together to date, when they attended the 2026 Golden Globes.

Before the ceremony – where they had also been booked to present one of the night’s top awards – both actors were seen posing for photographers as they made their way into the event.

And what we probably don’t need to tell you is that it was very much a swoon-worthy and scene-stealing appearance from the pair in their awards season debut.

Hudson was the first of the two to make it onto the red carpet, striking a pose for photographers in a cream blazer and matching silk shirt, which he paired with some black trousers and shoes.

After that, Connor made his own solo appearance on the red carpet, keeping things a little more classic in a loose-fitting black-and-white suit.

For those who’ve already binged through all six seasons of Heated Rivalry, fear not, because it’s already been announced that a second run is in production, with both of the series’ leads contracted for three in total.

Meanwhile, if you can’t hang on until then, author Rachel Reid confirmed over the weekend that a seventh instalment in her Game Changer novel series – on which Heated Rivalry is based – is due for publication in the autumn.
