As a tween, Olivia Holt got her first glimpse of fame in commercials for toy companies Hasbro and Mattel. She had a leading role in her second movie, "Girl Vs. Monster," in 2012, and proved her star power to Disney for them to book her on "Kickin' It."

The "Cloak & Dagger" actress has successfully shaken her Disney kid image to star on Broadway as Roxie Hart in "Chicago," and she is currently in a relationship with a musician.

When asked about his celebrity crush in an interview, Benward revealed that he and his co-star was "kinda having a thing" and clarified that they were dating. They had a "natural chemistry" while filming and grew close.

However, the actor explained, the friendship only turned romantic after filming wrapped, and he moved out to Los Angeles, California, with his family.

The couple lived up to their wholesome Disney image by attending church, hanging out at Disneyland, and ending their 'prom night' with a breakfast dinner at Big Boy.

In a tribute on his 19th birthday in May 2014, she compared Benward to a young Leonardo DiCaprio. The post sparked questions about whether they were still an item as she referred to him as her "best friend."

Benward and Georgie Henley, of "Chronicles of Narnia" fame, were briefly linked after he and Holt were believed to have broken up sometime in 2012.

The "Criminal Minds" guest star celebrated his third anniversary with Ariel Winter, who portrayed Alex Dunphy in "Modern Family," in January 2023.

The former child actor's first credit was starring opposite Mel Gibson as his son in "We Were Soldiers." He became famous in family-friendly fare like "Cloud 9," "R.L. Stine's The Haunting Hour," and "Dumplin."

Olivia Holt Was Crazy in Love with Ray Kearin and Sparked Dating Rumors with Taylor Lautner

After her first public relationship fizzled out, the teenage starlet took her time before falling for someone new. She met business major Ray Kearin at a mutual friend's barbeque in 2015.

The "Kickin' It" actress confirmed to J-13 in September 2015 that she was dating her "dream boy." Despite having met not that long ago, the star admitted she is "so crazy about him" and finding it hard not to talk about him. In another interview, she said:

"It's so cool because he's so curious about what I do, and I'm so curious about what he does, so it's cool to go back and forth and have conversations about the lives that we don't necessarily share together."

Kearin graduated with the class of 2015 at Crespi Carmelite High School, a private boys' school in Los Angeles. He served as a college radio talk show host during his business marketing and entrepreneurship studies at Saint Mary's College of California.

As of May 2022, the business grad works in partnerships and development at Thirdwave. On LinkedIn, he discusses Web3, cryptocurrency, and technology solutions.

One of the first signs that the young couple might have called it quits was when Kearin did not publicly celebrate his girlfriend's 20th birthday in August 2017 as he had the previous year.

According to tabloid reports, the couple broke up sometime in that year. Kearin announced his engagement to someone outside the entertainment industry in January 2023.

The performer compares his sound to that of Alec Benjamin, Justin Bieber, and Lauv.

In the last months of 2017, the Disney star was linked to the "Twilight" saga's Taylor Lautner. They were spotted at a Hillsong Church service and left in the actor's car together.

The pair was never snapped posing together at an event. Still, there is evidence of them being in the same place on multiple occasions, and there are individual photographs of them doing similar activities.

Lautner and Holt never addressed the romance rumors. The "New Moon" star's sister introduced him to his "future wife" at a game night in 2017.

Taylor Dome is a registered nurse, blogger, and philanthropist. The two Taylors married in a lavish ceremony at Epoch Estate Winery near Paso Robles, California, on Friday, November 11, 2022.
