Josh Heuston is back in the dating-rumor churn after a Paris photo of two people resembling him and Mika Abdalla spread online. The speculation picked up after fans had already noticed the pair’s playful Off Campus press-tour interactions, turning a co-star cycle into a relationship watch.
Paris photo, not a statement
An X user posted the image from behind, which is why the picture never settled the question on its own. That angle leaves room for resemblance, not proof, and the conversation has stayed centered on what viewers think they saw rather than anything either actor has put on the record.
Heuston plays Justin Kohl in season 1 of Off Campus, and Abdalla is one of the show’s co-stars. Heuston has also appeared in Heartbreak High, Dune: Prophecy and Thor: Love and Thunder, which has only widened the audience tracking his off-screen life alongside his credits.
June 2026 breakup context
The rumors landed weeks after Abdalla split from Jake Short, her former fiancé. A representative for Abdalla said in June 2026 that she and Short were “no longer together,” and the two had been together for about five years after meeting while working on Sex Appeal in 2022 and getting engaged in 2025.
That timeline explains why the new speculation moved so quickly. Once the breakup became public, any shared appearance between Abdalla and Heuston stopped reading as simple press-tour chemistry and started getting treated online as a relationship clue.
Off Campus keeps the chatter alive
The Paris image and the social-media chemistry fuel the dating rumors, but neither Abdalla nor Heuston has said they are dating. For now, the story sits in the narrow space between promotional banter and a photo that is suggestive but not decisive.
Whether the Paris photo actually shows Josh Heuston and Mika Abdalla is still the unanswered piece, and that is the only part that would settle the rumor cleanly. Until then, the stronger read is that the speculation is being driven by timing, not by any public declaration from either side.
