“Is this a hard launch?? 🤭❤️🔥,” Arnold wrote via Instagram in October 2024 alongside several pH๏τos with the USC football player at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
The Dancing With the Stars pro gushed exclusively to Us Weekly about her relationship with the тιԍнт end a few days after their social media debut, teasing that Lyons needs to meet her season 33 partner, Stephen Nedoroscik, before they move forward.
“I need Stephen’s stamp of approval, don’t I?” Arnold joked to Us in October 2024. “But from what I’ve told [him], Stephen’s like, ‘Yeah. He’s an amazing guy,’ and he is, so it’s good.”

One month after talking about her date on TikTok, Arnold shared another “get ready with me” video for a date with someone new. “I am excited to go on this date,” she said in the October 3 video while touching up her makeup. “I have never met him before, but we have a lot of mutuals … interesting coincidences. And then we’ve just been texting a lot lately and I get to meet him now tonight.”
Arnold revealed via an October 4 TikTok that she and the mystery man had hung out two nights in a row. “It was so fun,” she gushed of their first outing. “He was so easy to talk to. We have so many similarities.”
A few weeks later, Arnold debuted her romance with Lyons via Instagram. She shared multiple pH๏τos with the college football player on October 27 after attending one of his games in Los Angeles. (The pair have bonded over their shared religious beliefs as Mormons.)
