Oh yeah, life goes on—especially long after the thrill of Claim to Fame is gone.
That’s the case for John Mellencamp‘s son Hud Mellencamp and Trace Adkins‘ daughter Mackenzie Adkins, who confirmed that they’ve continued seeing each other after striking up a flirty relationship during season three of the reality series.
“We’re just hanging out,” Hud, 30, told People in a joint interview published Aug. 28, “seeing what happens.”
In fact, Mackenzie, 26, revealed that Hud has traveled down to her homebase of Nashville a “few times.”
“Yeah, going well,” she teased, adding that she was initially “so excited” to meet Hud on the ABC show because of their paternal connections to singers. “Because both of us, it’s our dad, and they’re both musicians. It’s just very similar.”
And their famous fathers are already well-aware of the strong connection they forged on the reality competition. Mackenzie even invited Hud and the “Jack & Diane” singer to her place to watch the season three finale, during which Michael Bolton‘s nephew Adam Christoferson was ultimately crowned the winner.
