Benjamin Hollingsworth is giving fans a fun peek behind the scenes. The Virgin River favorite recently shared 10 playful facts about his life, career, and family—and they’re as charming as you’d expect.
Now starring in the holiday film The Christmas Ring, Hollingsworth revealed he landed his first acting job by sneaking onto a movie set in a borrowed costume, considers himself more “dad taxi” than bad boy, and proudly runs on “Ben Standard Time” (a few minutes late).
Off-screen, he’s a hockey superfan who takes the game way too seriously, a surprisingly great massage-giver, and a dad whose kids prefer history documentaries over movie nights. Despite playing intense characters, he admits he forgets passwords constantly—unless it’s a script.
His favorite real-life role? Being married “way out of his league.” With Virgin River season 7 on the way, fans can expect plenty more from Hollingsworth—on screen and off.
