Katelyn Larson, a Vancouver-based tattoo artist and Hudson Williams’s girlfriend of several years, is speaking out against Heated Rivalry fans’ behaviour at her place of work.
On Tuesday, Larson posted an Instagram story asking fans to stop booking tattoo appointments “purely because of the connection to” Heated Rivalry. Last November, the hit Crave series vaulted Williams and co-star Connor Storrie to international fame.

“She’s not trying to be out there or perceived,” Williams told ETalk Canada in March. “She’s always like, ‘I don’t want to be perceived!’”

At a Q&A at the Toronto International Film Festival, Williams shared that a number of fans had made it into filming for Heated Rivalry’s second season, making it difficult for the actor to return to playing closeted hockey star Shane Hollander.
“There were some extras who were very clearly fans, and I was like, ‘Oh, I’m losing it,…
