Rachel Bilson and Hayden Christensen showed off their hot beach bodies while vacationing with pals in Barbados April 13. The Hart of Dixie actress and the Awake actor, both 31, packed on the PDA while strolling along the shore. That same day, the couple — who called off their engagement in 2010 before reuniting months later — also went on a boat ride.
Bilson looked slender as ever in a printed string bikini, despite her lifestyle — which she characterizes as less-than-healthy, at least by Hollywood standards. “I don’t do the super-clean-living L.A. thing. Everyone is obsessed with kale and hiking. And there’s a massive amount of juicing going on,” she told Women’s Health UK in March. “My guilty pleasure is Flamin’ Hot Cheetos. And I’m obsessed with cereal.”
The svelte 5-foot-2 star isn’t a slave to the gym, either. “I prefer dancing or tennis. I’m not great — no Wimbledon next year– but I’m trying to get better,” the O.C. alum said. “The perk is you can always hit someone with the ball. Useful when your boyfriend is trying to teach you and you want to hit him in the head. Or groin. Whichever works.”
In the April issue of Cosmopolitan, Bilson spoke candidly about the evolution of her relationship with Christensen, whom she began dating in 2007. “I’m a really good girlfriend — I always put all that first in my life. I’m definitely the person who would make him his favorite dinner to come home to,” she told the magazine. “I love to cook, so we make dinner at home a lot and watch movies.”
Bilson added that she’s looking forward to raising children with the Canadian actor. “I definitely have family on the brain,” she said. “Having kids is something I want to see in my future — I hope.”
