Smokeshow.
“Heated Rivalry” co-stars Connor Storrie and François Arnaud further fueled dating speculation by stepping out for dinner together.
The duo was spotted at the Smoke House in Burbank, Los Angeles, in photos obtained by TMZ. In the images, they were seen sharing a cozy booth at the restaurant. A small lamp in the center of the table lit the scene as they happily chatted.
In one snap, Storrie, 25, smiled at Arnaud, 40, while looking over the menu. In another, Arnaud seemingly laughed while Storrie looked off into the distance.
Days prior to their Smoke House outing, the co-stars were seen making a fashionable exit from a Paris Fashion Week party in January.
Reps for Storrie and Arnaud did not immediately return Page Six’s requests for comment.
Storrie — who plays Ilya Rozanov opposite Hudson Williams’ Shane Hollander in the sultry hockey drama — first sparked dating rumors with Arnaud when they were spotted jetting out of JFK following their press week in the Big Apple last month.
Some fans of the show, however, felt Storrie would be better matched in real life with his on-screen lover Williams — leading to Arnaud reportedly receiving death threats.
Arnaud subsequently unfollowed the cast and others involved in the hit series — including Williams, Robbie G.K. and Connor Storrie.
He later re-followed the cast members and shared a composite photo of himself and Williams flipping off the camera — and subsequently denied the mass unfollowing had anything to do with the social media drama.
“What’s happening is that I’m unfollowing everyone, and Instagram won’t let me do that all at once,” he told the Toronto Star last month.
“You can only unfollow a certain amount of people over 24 hours, which I did not know at the time,” he added.
He also said the middle finger selfie was “completely unrelated” to the online harassment.
When Andy Cohen asked Arnaud if he was “single these days” during a January episode of “Watch What Happens Live,” Arnaud fired back, “None of your f–king business,” prompting laughter from fellow guest Mary J. Blige.
Arnaud’s reticence on the topic has done little to quell romance speculation, with one person on X writing of their most recent outing, “Connor Storrie and François look absolutely beautiful.”
A fan of Storrie gushed, “I live and smile for everything that makes Connor happy. Whether it’s François as his partner, friend, or whatever it may be.”
