There is a great mystery in the 2026 advertising world, and it has finally been solved. An actress with a dazzling smile and an expressive face steals the show in the HomeGoods commercial, telling us how the American store chain is committed every day to providing us with the things we love.
As you know, when a commercial testimonial captures our attention, it’s natural to wonder who they are, and the answer isn’t always easy to find. This time, the mission was almost impossible. But those who know us know: Auralcrave is the world’s best investigative agency for finding answers to the mysteries of the entertainment world (as we recently did for the Lexus Commercial).
A mystery that lasted months: who is the 2026 HomeGoods commercial actress?
The commercial at the center of the whirlwind of questions invading the internet was released in 2025 and, after the Christmas break, returned to television in 2026. You can find it below:
Since it was released, everyone has been wondering who this blonde actress with the captivating gaze is. And the answer simply doesn’t exist on any official channel: the YouTube video of the commercial provides no information in its description and is closed to comments. The official website and HomeGoods’ social media pages don’t mention her. There was even a dedicated thread on Reddit, where many users have had fun trying to find the actress’s name.
Here’s a small spoiler: almost every name mentioned in that Reddit thread before our article was wrong. Some were convinced the actress was Elizabeth Lail (Guinevere from You), others believed it was Brianne Howey (Georgia from Ginny & Georgia). These were good guesses (especially Brianne Howey, who bears a striking resemblance to the face we see in the HomeGoods commercial), but they didn’t hit the mark.
We are giving you the final answer today: the 2026 HomeGoods commercial actress is Gabi Samels. You can find her on Instagram, where she shared the HomeGoods commercial herself in her Instagram stories, confirming her involvement.
Gabi Samels acted in the Netflix film The Half Of It (2020) and appeared in episodes of the series Chicago P.D. and Adults. You can find her full filmography here on IMDb.
The actress appears confident and natural in the HomeGoods commercial, speaking directly to us through the camera and even interacting with the giraffe next to the sofa, asking for confirmation on how good it feels inside HomeGoods stores. The internet needed an answer, and now we know: another mystery solved!
