It’s a delight to get a glimpse of Candice King’s beau as the two shared a sweet moment of love in a recent video clip. King, who played the iconic character of Caroline Forbes in the popular drama series The Vampire Diaries and The Originals, is dating her co-star, Steven Krueger. Although it’s nearly six years since the spinoff, The Originals, wrapped up, fans are rooting for the couple!

The 36-year-old actress sealed her off-screen romance by sharing a cute lip lock with Steven Krueger, who played vampire Josh Rosza in the series, as witnessed in the video clip.

Taking to her Instagram account, the actress shared a short video recap of her 2023 year before embracing the new year and expressed gratitude for the “laughter and cries”.   

For the unversed, CW’s The Vampire Diaries is a classic vampire fiction series that spans eight seasons, and its characters like Damon Salvatore, Stefan Salvatore, Elena Gilberts, and Caroline Forbes are still adored by fans all over the world. The story revolves around a teenage girl Elena Gilbert and her life with two besties Caroline Forbes and Bonnie Bennet before her life plunges into the mysterious and dark world of the vampires. The love triangle between human Elena and her vampire lovers, Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) is still a debate topic for TVD fans as they are torn between the two charismatic male leads.   

The recent TVD reunion was attended by Forbes, along with other pivotal cast members like Nina Dobrev and Paul Wesley.   

The recap montage became a thrilling treat for the fans of the supernatural drama. The year-ender reflected on her joyous moments with friends, family, and lovers. One fan commented, “Caroline and Josh were not on my 2023 bingo card but I'm here for it,” while another wrote with a tease, “Joshh!!! Klaus is coming for your head!” (Klaus and Caroline had enemies-turn-friends trope and many TVD fans ship their relationship till now).  

Candice Accola King married musician Joe King in 2014 and share two daughters. The duo drifted apart in 2022.
