So much for keeping things under wraps. Off Campus stars Josh Heuston and Mika Abdalla were spotted getting cozy at La Suite restaurant in Paris, and they’re doing absolutely nothing to quiet the romance rumors swirling around them.
The pair spent several hours at the intimate corner table on Friday, staying well into the night—the kind of dinner move that screams“we’re definitely together.”And honestly, who wouldn’t linger? The restaurant offers killer views of the Eiffel Tower’s light shows, which is basically the setup for a first date montage in a rom-com. Witnesses say they were trying to keep a low profile, but spoiler alert: that ship sailed the moment they got photographed looking decidedly couple-like.
This timing is loaded with narrative tension. Just weeks before this Parisian escapade, Mika Abdalla and her fiancé, actor Jake Short, called it quits after a five-year relationship. A breakup that messy usually calls for a low-key recovery period, not a whirlwind European getaway with a co-star. But here we are.
The drama got messier when an old podcast clip resurfaced of Jake Short calling Mika that bitch while sitting right next to her—a moment he later apologized for, framing it as a disrespectful, juvenile joke. The whole thing felt like a final mic drop on a relationship that was clearly done.
Meanwhile, there have been multiple Paris sightings of Josh and Mika together, and each one paints them looking more and more like an official item. Fans of Off Campus are eating this up, thrilled to see their on-screen chemistry potentially translate into something real, off-camera, and thousands of miles away from the drama.
The real question isn’t whether they’re together—the evidence is stacked. It’s whether this is genuine connection or a classic case of proximity and rebound timing blending into something that feels romantic in the moment.
