Who is Chris Copier, Hunter King’s Fiance?
King and Copier met in early 2022 while filming the independent movie “Give Me Your Eyes,” according to Just Jared, where one of King’s best friends, David Niederhoffer, serves as managing editor. King starred in that movie, and Collier was on set as the first assistant director. A year later, per the outlet, the two started dating.
Copier has worked behind the scenes on many movies as an assistant director, including on King’s upcoming “Holiday Romance: A Chiefs Love Story,” the highly-anticipated NFL-themed movie co-starring Tyler Hynes. They also just wrapped filming a thriller called “Don’t Move,” in which King co-stars with fellow Hallmark star Fonseca, per Just Jared.
Other Hallmark projects Copier’s worked on, per IMDb, include the “Haul Out the Holly” movies and “The Holiday Stocking.”
In the year that King and Copier have been together, they’ve not only worked together but gone on multiple adventures she has chronicled on social media, from kayaks to helicopters to a Chicago getaway.
In March, King shared an Instagram tribute to Copier for his birthday, writing, “Happy birthday to the guy who does it all❤️ The guy who makes matzo ball soup from scratch for me when I’m sick. Who hates tofu but learned how to perfect it anyway because he knows I love it. Who re watches all the shows I haven’t seen and pauses them every 20 seconds to answer all my questions.”
“Thank you for loving me the way you do,” King continued. “Here’s to many more birthdays together 🍻Love you”
