Husbands Jonathan Bennett and Jaymes Vaughn are living their best life on a Caribbean cruise
The cute husbands have been on vacation with the cruise line, Carnival.

Husbands Jonathan Bennett and Jaymes Vaughn have been enjoying a Caribbean vacation. The men have been on a cruise with Carnival and posted images to Instagram that are prompting feelings of wanderlust… or maybe just plain lust.
Here they are enjoying the crystal-clear waters around Grand Turk on the Turks and Caicos Islands.
“Vacation mode activated,” said Bennett.
The official Instagram account for Carnival Cruises responded, and Bennett confirmed the couple were sailing with the company.

Vaughn also shared a video of Bennett dancing aboard the ship.
And here’s another video they shared of themselves enjoying Damajagua Falls in the Dominican Republic.
And enjoying mini-donuts on Celebration Key, on the south side of Grand Bahama Island. The resort of reserved for cruise ship guests.
Carnival has a fleet of cruise ships and offers a variety of vacation options. These range from 4-day trips up to those over two weeks. Popular destinations include the Caribbean, the Mexican Riviera, Alaska, Hawaii, and the Mediterranean. We suspect Bennett and Vaughn are on one of the company’s Eastern Caribbean jaunts.
Meeting and falling in love
Bennett shot to attention in the 2004 movie Mean Girls. He has since appeared in a slew of other movies and presented TV shows, such as Cake Wars. He starred in The Holiday Sitter, the first Hallmark holiday movie centered on a gay couple, and recently produced and co-starred in The Groomsmen Trilogy of movies. The Groomsmen: Second Chances won ‘Best Film on a TV or streaming service’ at the recent GLAAD Media Awards.
Bennett met Vaughan in 2016. Bennett was filming a segment for Celebrity Page to promote the Food Network reality show, Halloween Wars. Vaughan interviewed him and sparks flew between the men.
“I walked into The Grove [mall in Los Angeles] to do an interview with the guy from Celebrity Page,” Bennett told The Knot in 2021. “I had never heard of him before, but when I saw him setting up to do the interview, I thought he was the most beautiful man I’d ever seen.”
The couple wed in March 2022 in Mexico.
The two are definitely fans of cruise vacations. Here’s a lighthearted video Vaughn posted last year illustrating the attention his husband receives from fans of Hallmark movies whenever they go cruising.
