More recently, she's become a mainstay on the Hallmark Channel, having starred in over 30 original movies (and counting) on the TV network. In June 2023, she and Wolf were announced to play a brother-sister duo in the Hallmark film A Merry Scottish Christmas.

He has since taken a break from acting, his last role being a 2006 episode of the TV show Secrets of a Small Town. According to his Instagram, Smith graduated from Charis Bible College in 2018 and is currently a dog dad to his French bulldog, Bella.
