Emma Kenney and Conrad Hilton spent the holidays together!

The Shameless alum, 25, shared a sweet snap of her and the hotel heir in front of his mother Kathy Hilton’s famous Christmas tree on Dec. 26. The pair, who have not yet confirmed the status of their relationship, smiled as they stood with their arms around each other.

“A very merry Christmas ♥️🎁,” Kenney captioned the photo.

Kathy showed her support in the comments, leaving several red hearts under the post. Conrad’s cousin, Alexia Umansky, (who is the daughter of Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky) also commented: “Merry Christmas you two ❤️”

PEOPLE reached out to a rep for Kenney for comment.

Last month, Kenney and Conrad rescued a dog from a kill shelter in Los Angeles. She explained the situation on her Instagram Story on Dec. 3, posting a short video of the pup walking out to them.

“@conradhilton and I saved this sweet little dog who was MINUTES away from being euthanized at the shelter for @itsyogishouse last night and brought her to her new home,” Kenney wrote.

Kenney founded Yogi’s House, a rescue that takes in dogs at risk for euthanasia in California, with Nicola Peltz-Beckham in 2022. Conrad has been on the board since its inception as the Adoption Outreach Coordinator.

Conrad has largely kept his life under wraps since his arrest in 2018 on charges of grand theft auto. The actress has also remained private in recent years after seeking treatment for unspecified “battles” in 2018. 

“I’m going to work through it,” she told In Touch that year. “I’m going to get help and make better choices.”

Just 18 years old at the time, she admitted in a statement to Entertainment Tonight that she “was running with a really fast crowd. I was being naive and very immature, and I was doing things I should not be doing because it was illegal and I’m not 21.”

Reflecting on the choices she was making, Kenney shared, “It wasn’t healthy, and it was making me feel even worse — anxious and depressed.”

“It was just a slippery slope that I did not want to go down,” she added. “And I knew that I needed to stop it.”

Since Shameless premiered, Kenney took on a handful of other roles, including Harris Conner-Healy on The Conners (which is coming to a conclusion this spring) and the voice of Sarma in the animated film My Love Affair with Marriage (2022). She has also appeared in Robert the Bruce (2019), Back to Lyla (2022) and Murder at Yellowstone City (2022).

TV Line also recently revealed that she will be replacing Elizabeth Alderfer in Happy’s Place as Reba McEntire’s daughter in 2025.
