Kaitlyn Bristowe and Zac Clark offered a subtle glimpse into how they celebrated the holidays — seemingly together.

The rumored couple took to their Instagram Stories on Wednesday, December 25, to highlight their Christmas festivities, with Bristowe, 39, uploading a photo of her holding a candle at church.

“Many different beliefs when attending church,” she wrote alongside a snap that featured her and someone else who was also holding a candle. “But one I share with the community is shining your light.”

Clark, 40, meanwhile, shared a very similar photo of him holding a candle, which looked to be the exact same setting as Bristowe’s but from another angle.

Bristowe and Clark have not publicly addressed their relationship status after sparking romance rumors earlier this year. When they were spotted spending time together over New Year’s Eve, Bristowe swiftly shut down speculation that she was unfaithful to ex-fiancé Jason Tartick before their split in August 2023.

Bristowe didn’t, however, deny that there was anything romantic between her and Clark.

“You would think by now I’d be used to the hate. I’m not. Your words hurt. Your shaming hurts. Part of me feels a little sad and honestly embarrassed for you guys because this shouldn’t be how you spend day 1 of a new year,” Bristowe wrote via her Instagram Story in January. “You should not be this invested in someone you don’t even know or respect. It’s actually scary, and I know looking inward might be even scarier for you. But the bullying is next level. You are allowed to have opinions and feelings.”

She continued, “But you don’t even know the truth, and your HATE should actually come with consequences. I truly worry about some of your mental health. It’s not OK. It’s. Not. Please. Please feel ashamed of yourselves for treating someone this way who you don’t know. I did not kill someone. I had a party with some of my favorite people. Shame. On. YOU. Not me.”

In response to a separate post, Bristowe called out the rumors directly, writing, “Here to say that there was never an ounce of cheating happening and I will not stand for this rumor. Y’all are NASTY in here. Anywho. Swear on my dogs lives. No cheating went on. So we can just put that to rest. Thank you!! Happy new year everyone. Go donate some blood or somethin!”

Clark has remained more tight-lipped following his breakup with Tayshia Adams, who cohosted seasons 17 and 18 of The Bachelorette with Bristowe. Clark and Adams, 34, got engaged on season 16 of the ABC dating show in 2020, but Us Weekly confirmed their split in December 2021.

“In the moment, it felt real, it felt right — it was all those things. I wouldn’t change anything,” Clark shared on “The Ben and Ashley I Almost Famous Podcast” in September 2023. “I don’t live in regret. It’s a very special moment in time and in my life regardless of what happened.”

In honor of his 40th birthday in January, Clark reflected on the important life lessons he learned.

“I’ve lost fights. I’ve won fights. I’ve been married. I’ve gotten divorced. I’ve been addicted to heroin and I’ve recovered. I’ve gotten a brain tumor cut out in the back of my head. I’ve made friendships and I’ve lost friendships. I’ve made money and I’ve lost money,” he wrote via Instagram at the time. “At the end of the day, I throw it all in the middle of the table and that’s life. I believe we’re all dealt a hand to play and for me, I’m a pretty happy guy right now.”

A Guide to the 'Riverdale' Cast's Kids: From KJ Apa to Vanessa Morgan's Kids

KJ Apa, Vanessa Morgan and more stars from Riverdale have offered glimpses at their off-screen families.

Apa, who plays Archie Andrews in the popular CW series, became a father when his girlfriend Clara Berry gave birth to their son in September 2021. “He is a perfect perfection,” the model captioned the Instagram announcement, which included a photo of their baby boy. “I am the luckiest to have now two men of my life, filling my heart with this cosmic gigantic vast love.”

The I Still Believe star shared his excitement about the next chapter of his life, telling Entertainment Tonight in April 2022, “When you have a child, it pulls everything closer in your life in terms of the people that you love, your friends. It really reveals the people who really matter in your life, and it all revolves around this one special thing that you’ve created. It’s the most incredible thing that’s ever happened to me.”

He added: “I find myself looking at him and getting goosebumps ’cause I feel like I’m looking at a version of myself — which I guess I am. I see a lot of Clara in him too, which is something you can’t really describe. You can’t really describe the feeling, it’s amazing.”

Meanwhile, Apa’s costar Morgan announced her pregnancy in July 2020. The news came six months after she exchanged vows with Michael Kopech — who was notably missing from her celebratory post.

After Morgan shared that she was expecting a baby, the Chicago Tribune reported that she and the baseball player had called it quits. The athlete had filed for divorce in his native state of Texas one month prior. At the time, the Finding Carter alum’s rep confirmed that Kopech is the father of her child.

Although Morgan has kept the status of her relationship with Kopech private, she has used social media to gush about her son.

Young Grinch Actor Died 2 Years After Movie's 2000 Release

The live-action How the Grinch Stole Christmas has become a holiday classic, but fans may not know one of its most memorable stars died just two years after the film’s release.

Actor Joshua Ryan Evans died at age 20 not long after winning fans’ hearts as the 8-year-old Grinch in the Ron Howard–directed Christmas movie. Evans, who lived with a form of dwarfism called achondroplasia, died as a result of a medical procedure to correct a congenital heart condition at a San Diego hospital in August 2002.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas, which hit theaters in November 2000, marked Evans’ second-to-last acting credit before his death. Evans famously appeared as the younger version of Jim Carrey’s Grinch in a flashback sequence explaining the character’s dislike for Christmas. Adopted by two Whoville residents, the young Grinch tries to impress his crush, Martha May Whovier, by shaving his face, but cuts himself in the process. After being laughed at by his classmates and teacher, the young Grinch flees to Mount Crumpit and vows to hate Christmas.

Though Evans’ version of the Grinch was only 8 years old, the actor was a teenager when he filmed the movie. His achondroplasia made him appear younger than his actual age, standing at only 3-foot-2. Evans also suffered from a congenital heart condition that caused him to undergo several surgeries during his childhood.

Actors You Forgot Starred in 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas'

As a result of being homebound by his medical issues, frequently watching TV shows and movies inspired Evans to become an actor. “I thought, if it’s all pretend, why can’t I do that,” he told the Los Angeles Times in a November 2000 interview.

Evans got his acting start on TV shows such as Family Matters, Ally McBeal, Hey Arnold!, Rugrats and 7th Heaven before booking How the Grinch Stole Christmas. He also starred as Timmy the living doll on the NBC soap opera Passions from 1999 to 2002.

In an odd Hollywood coincidence, Evans died the same day as an episode of Passions aired where his character died and donated his heart.

Evans’ role in How the Grinch Stole Christmas was originally meant to be a small one, but his skills inspired Howard, 70, to expand the part. “As it turned out, he was able to create a character and generate a lot of heart for the story,” the director told the Los Angeles Times in November 2000. “It was such a pleasant surprise. The days working with Jim were always amazing, but Josh was just delightful.”

Similar to Carrey, 62, Evans spent several hours in the makeup chair. “I have had heart surgery three times, so I know what it was like to have pins and needles stuck in you,” he told the newspaper. His mother, Cheryl Evans, added: “At one point, we were there 16 hours and I was ready to pull him. Then Ron said, ‘Action,’ and he just came to life.”

At the time, Evans said he would “never have forgiven myself” if he was pulled from the film. “I came close [to pulling myself]. I had two days left and I knew I had to go back. It was in the morning and, while getting up and putting on my clothes, I did not want to go,” he shared. “The night before I was yelling at my mom every minute she was saying something.”

Before his death, Evans was considering his options behind the camera as well. “Ron gave me an offer to intern because I asked him if I could observe him,” he recalled. “I can’t think too far ahead. I am feeling better than I have ever felt. I love being an actor. I love my work. I love the payoff.”
