Off Campus’s Josh Heuston and Mika Abdalla are dating, a source told Entertainment Tonight on June 24. The confirmation came after weeks of rumors—and one day after photos came out of them showing affection in Paris.
Throughout the show’s press tour, Heuston and Abdalla often appeared together in interviews and social media posts. Interest in their dynamic grew in June 2026 after Abdalla’s rep shared that the actress and her former fiancé, actor Jake Short, had ended their relationship.
Below, a complete timeline of everything we know about Heuston and Abdalla’s history.
May 2026
After Off Campus premiered on Prime Video, fans began discussing Heuston and Abdalla’s off-screen friendship on social media.
Although Heuston’s character, Justin Kohl, and Abdalla’s character, Allie Hayes, shared limited screen time during season 1, viewers noticed the actors frequently appeared together throughout the show’s promotional campaign.
In a May interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Abdalla spoke about the close bond the cast developed while filming and promoting the series.
“I cannot get enough of these people,” she said. “Truly on this press tour, I cannot imagine if I wasn’t immediately flying to Vancouver with all these people.”
June 2026
On June 1, Abdalla’s rep confirmed that the actress and Short had ended their engagement. “Due to recent interest in Mika’s personal life, it would feel remiss to not address that her and Jake are no longer together,” the spokesperson said. “They continue to support each other and remain on friendly terms, and kindly ask for privacy and respect.”
As the month continued, dating rumors between Abdalla and Heuston gained more attention after the Australian radio show 2DayFM Breakfast with Nath & Emma discussed speculation surrounding the co-stars.
During the segment, co-host Emma Chow said, “There have been rumors swirling for a couple of weeks now that two Off Campus stars are dating in real life.”
“One of my friends works at a high-end luxury brand, and someone very close to Josh Heuston attended a show for that luxury brand, and the rumors have now spread,” producer CJ added. “That person may have confirmed it.”
The radio segment quickly circulated on TikTok and other social platforms, where fans continued discussing the pair.
Neither Abdalla nor Heuston commented on the claims.
Coverage of the rumors expanded across entertainment outlets as fans revisited interviews and social media content featuring Abdalla and Heuston.
On June 22, photos of Abdalla and Heuston taken during a trip to Paris began circulating online, with the two stars holding onto each other in the shots.
The same day, Heuston shared an Instagram carousel that included several behind-the-scenes moments with his Off Campus co-stars. One image showed him and Abdalla seated beside one another during a flight.
One day later, a source told Entertainment Tonight that Heuston and Abdalla were dating. The insider didn’t disclose any additional details about the relationship.
