Rylee Arnold had a special guest at her family’s Thanksgiving this year!

The 18-year-old professional dancer shared that she invited her Dancing with the Stars partner Harry Jowsey to the festivities after they were eliminated from the ABC dance competition on Tuesday.

“Harry didn’t have any plans for Thanksgiving,” Arnold said on the latest episode of the Lightweights Podcast. “My family always goes all out for Thanksgiving. All the dinner, all the games. So, I was like, ‘Harry’s got to join. He’s got to have a Thanksgiving this year.’ So, he came along.”

She added: “He came to my family’s Thanksgiving. They came down to California to do Thanksgiving here so I could be there, and he joined, and it was really fun. He had a good time, I think, and all my nieces and nephew love him, so it was really cute.”

On Thanksgiving, Arnold shared videos and photos of the get-together, including a snapshot of her posing with Jowsey on the beach with a hand heart emoji beside his name. She also shared a clip of the Too Hot to Handle star, 26, playing with her sister Brynley’s daughter Quincy. Sisters Lindsay, Jensen and their children also took part in the festivities.

Arnold also showed off a Van Cleef bracelet, which was a gift from Jowsey, in a TikTok ahead of the holiday meal.

“You guys, I can’t believe he got it for me,” she shared while giving fans a close-up of the bracelet. “I think it is literally the most beautiful bracelet I’ve ever seen. I’m the luckiest girl ever. Wow. It’s so cute.”

She clarified during her podcast appearance that the jewelry was a “thank you for an amazing season and amazing time together.”

The Thanksgiving outing comes after the pair sparked romance rumors during their time on Dancing with the Stars. Arnold addressed the speculation, saying, “For my first season, it’s kind of crazy that I was a part of the most-talked-about couple. We were the most-talked-about couple this season, and that’s just insane.”

Arnold said she hopes to stay close to Jowsey despite their elimination from the show, sharing, “I hope we stay friends because our relationship is so fun and we really just connected a lot. When you’re in the show, the person and the partner you’re with, you just build this connection because you got through so much together — stress and anxiety. I think we really bonded and had a good time together.”
