First spotted together at the airport, then later at a café in Paris, the two have been quietly showing up in each other’s lives for a while now. According to Entertainment Tonight, a source has confirmed what fans have been speculating in the comment sections for months: Mika and Josh are officially dating.

Mika and Josh’s Relationship Timeline: How It All Went Down
Mika and Josh Meet Filming ‘Off Campus’
Mika and Josh presumably met on the set of Amazon’s breakout original series, Off Campus. Mika plays Allie Hayes, a college student, aspiring actress, and best friend to Hannah Wells, the main love interest in Season 1. Josh plays Justin Kohl, the lead singer of a boy band and Hannah Wells’ love interest.
The popular TV series dominated the charts as soon as it was released. According to Amazon, Off Campus reached 36 million viewers in its first 12 days of streaming. Audiences quickly fell in love with the entire cast—our newly coupled-up sweethearts included.
Fans Start Side-Eyeing Their ‘Friendship’
After the show premiered and fans got a glimpse of the cast interviews, many immediately became interested in Mika and Josh’s dynamic, which seemed a little more romantic than just friendly.
One fan commented under an interview featuring the pair: “I find them adorable. Rooting for them. Mika has that full Allie Hayes energy with him.” This was well before the couple made anything official.
June 2026: Mika and Josh Are Spotted at Paris Airport
A couple of weeks after the show’s release, the two were spotted together at an airport in Paris. Josh was rolling Mika around while she sat on top of a suitcase, and if that’s not relationship behavior, we genuinely don’t know what is…
June 22, 2026: Mika and Josh Hold Hands in Paris
Well, that trip turned out to be great fan service because, on June 22, photos of the pair holding hands and sharing intimate moments in Paris took the internet by storm.
By sheer coincidence—or maybe not—Josh posted an Instagram photo dump that very same day. One of the pictures showed him and Mika sitting together in first class. How cute..
June 23-24, 2026: The ‘Off Campus’ Couple Get Cozy at a Restaurant
Then came June 23, when TMZ released cozy photos of the couple chatting over a meal at a restaurant in Paris.
Just one day later, on June 24, a source told Entertainment Tonight that the two were officially dating.
June 24, 2026: Josh Gets Asked About Mika
In one fan video, Josh was asked by someone in the crowd, “Is Mika coming out?,” to which he gave a cheeky and nervous giggle. Yeah, we all know what that means.
June 30, 2026: Mika Spotted Stroking Josh
Our girl was spotted sneakily caressing Josh’s side in a clip published by X account Buzzing Pop. This is peak hot new romance energy and we are absolutely here for it.
Whew, what a timeline we just jumped through. All that to say: the fans clocked this happy couple from day one.
Mika Abdalla’s Dating History
We don’t know much about Mika’s dating history, but one thing we do know is her previous relationship—and failed engagement—with her Sex Appeal co-star Jake Short. The pair met on the set of the Hulu comedy and reportedly began dating shortly afterward in 2021.
They were together for five years before ending their engagement in June 2026. Mika’s manager confirmed the news in an exclusive statement to Us Weekly, saying: “Due to recent interest in Mika’s personal life, it would feel remiss to not address that her and Jake are no longer together.”
(Pop Tellers, we’re not going to pretend we’re sad about this one.)
The couple had reportedly been separated for months before making the announcement public, and we can’t help but notice that the statement came just before those intimate photos of Mika and Josh’s Paris rendezvous surfaced. Coincidence? Pretty unlikely.
Josh Heuston’s Dating History
Before dating Mika, Josh was in a relationship with Australian YouTuber Cartia Mallan. According to Soap Central, the pair met while appearing in the same music video. Their relationship was fairly public, with Josh frequently appearing on Cartia’s YouTube channel and across their social media.
The relationship lasted for around two years, from 2018 to 2020. Since then, Josh has remained publicly single—and apparently open to a bombshell (yes, we love a Love Island reference!).
With both of their past relationships behind them, fans are convinced this is the real deal, and the internet has plenty to say about it.
What The Internet Is Saying
Fans were thrilled to hear that the relationship was official and not just another online fantasy.
User @_the.fit.doctor commented under a Fournine Instagram post, “Love when hot people date hot people.” Under the same post, user @manasa__.97 wrote, “Series soo goated that the plot twist comes to real life,” and yep, we couldn’t agree more.
Meanwhile, user @xodramaedits posted a TikTok saying their relationship feels “so 2000s-coded,” and judging by the comments, plenty of fans agree.
Most seem eager to see more of the lovebirds—as long as it doesn’t affect Mika’s on-screen chemistry with co-star Stephen Kalyn. And honestly? We’re with the internet on this one.
So, has another hot couple entered the villa? We’re here for the wild ride. Off Campus already had us hooked with its on-screen chemistry, and now it feels like we’re getting bonus episodes through an off-screen romance.
Here’s hoping Mika and Josh give us many more Paris café dates, suitcase rides, and Instagram dumps to dissect.
