Ashley Park and Paul Forman may be onscreen costars, but they’ve shown they have chemistry off screen too.

The pair met while filming season 3 of Emily in Paris in 2021 when Forman was cast as Park’s love interest, Nicolas de Leon. (Park has played Mindy Chen in the Netflix series since the October 2020 premiere.)

While fans had speculated that Park and Forman were romantically linked, the duo didn’t make their relationship official until January 2024.

Park shared a throwback black-and-white photo of the twosome kissing via Instagram, and another of Forman pushing her in a wheelchair while dressed up. In the caption, she seemingly revealed the couple had actually been together for longer than fans initially thought.

“A year ago from today. @peforman annual January heroism,” Park captioned the post, to which Forman replied, “The only heroism comes from having you by my side.”

After Park was hospitalized from tonsillitis that “spiraled into critical septic shock,” she gave thanks to Forman for his continued support.

“Grateful most of all to [Forman] for being unconditionally by my side through all this. You calmed my fears and held me through ambulances, three foreign hospitals, a week in the ICU, scary ERs, countless scans and tests and injections, excruciating pain, and so much confusion all while we were alone on the other side of the world far from those we know,” she wrote.

Alongside a photo of Forman kissing her head while she laid in bed, Park wrote, “I love you, Paul. More than I can ever say.”

In response to her sweet tribute, Forman wrote, “My love,” alongside a heart emoji.

He also took to his own Instagram account to share snaps of the pair, writing, “By your side, no matter what.”

Park recalled the early days of her romance with Forman, telling Cosmopolitan that she knew he was “eye candy” but was adamant that she didn’t want to “date an actor again” when they met on Emily in Paris.

“I was also like, ‘Oh my god, definitely not. I am past that. I would never fall for someone who looks that impeccable,’” she remembered of their initial connection. “So we were just friends. Very platonically, we would hang out.”

Park’s costar Lily Collins, however, “noticed the chemistry” between them and brought it to her attention. “She was like, ‘Ashley, what is going on?’ And I replied, ‘Nothing. I told you I wasn’t dating actors,’” Park remembered.

Things did eventually turn romantic after a trip to Poland where Park witnessed Forman “play chess with these children who did not have a home.” She recalled having to do a “loss-of-dignity tour” and tell Collins and everyone else, “We are so in love.”
