Acting edit

Starting his career at the Actors Studio in Chicago, O'Connell permanently relocated to Los Angeles so he could continue modeling, and start acting. O'Connell started acting classes. He eventually booked several commercials, including the Liquid-Plumr where he caught the eye of Tyler Perry.[8] O'Connell initially thought it was a joke when he was contacted by Perry's production company about auditioning for a role in a new television series. Perry contacted O'Connell himself and asked him to audition over Skype. Perry then traveled to Los Angeles to meet with O'Connell about the role of Wyatt on The Haves and the Have Nots.[2] O'Connell was actually the first of the ensemble to be cast.[8]

In 2015, he starred in the seasonal comedy for Hallmark Channel 12 Gifts of Christmas as Marc Rehnquist, a company executive who hires a personal shopper and discovers the true spirit of Christmas is not money,[9] and also played a leading part in A Prince for Christmas.

In 2017, he starred in Hallmark Channel’s With Love, Christmas, as 'Donovan Goodwin', with Emilie Ullerup as his co-star.[7]
