Love Unfolds in Venice: Emily in Paris Stars Ashley Park and Paul Forman Split

BOMBSHELL! Ashley Park and Paul Forman's Sizzling Romance Ends After 2 Years of Passionate Love

Get ready for a juicy breakup alert, folks! The whirlwind romance between Ashley Park and Paul Forman has come to an abrupt end after over two years of sizzling passion. Sources close to the couple have confirmed that their "quality time" love language hasn't been enough to keep them together.

The Cali-born cutie, 34, and her British-French beau, 31, were last spotted together on August 23 in Venice, Italy, where they were filming the fifth season of their Netflix hit show Emily in Paris. But behind-the-scenes, insiders claim that their relationship has been over for a month or so.

TMZ broke the news that Ashley and Paul's romance "ended in the last month or so," leaving fans wondering what went wrong. The final straw seemed to be the couple's social media silence - they hadn't posted anything together since April 15, when they shared a playful video of themselves tossing bucket hats on each other's heads.

But here's the kicker: Paul was noticeably MIA at Ashley's friend Selena Gomez's wedding in Santa Barbara, California last weekend. The guest list was A-list heavy, with newly-single Nina Dobrev and Cara Delevingne in attendance. We can't help but wonder if Paul's absence was a deliberate snub or just a scheduling conflict.

So, what went wrong in this whirlwind romance? Sources close to the couple claim that Ashley and Paul were inseparable on set, but their relationship began to fray when they started to spend more time apart. "They were always so focused on work," a source spills. "It was like they were living two separate lives."

But let's take a step back in time and revisit how these two lovebirds met. It all started during the filming of season three of Emily in Paris, when Ashley was hospitalized with critical septic shock while on vacation with Paul. In an Instagram post, Ashley gushed about Paul's heroic efforts: "Grateful most of all to @peforman 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."

Fast-forward to January 25, 2024, when Ashley went Instagram official with Paul by sharing a PDA-packed snap. "I feel like the luckiest man in the world," Forman gushed to People in August 2024. "The relationship part happened after filming [season three], but I felt that [support] from the very beginning with her. She's so generous, so supportive."

Ashley has been open about how Paul's kindness and generosity on set won her over. "One of the reasons I wanted to be friends with him, and eventually fell in love with him, is that he's so generous and kind as a coworker and a friend," she recalled to Cosmopolitan in 2024. "I've never been with a straight white male who has been more generous or better to work with on a set. Ever, ever, ever."

But it seems like their romance was destined to end in heartbreak. The Emily in Paris cast is reuniting for the fifth season, which premieres on December 18 on Netflix. Will we see Ashley and Paul's characters, Mindy Chen and Nicolas de Léon, get their happy ending? Only time will tell.

In a tragic twist, the show has been rocked by real-life drama after assistant director Diego Borella passed away at the age of 47 due to a heart attack while filming in Italy. The cast and crew are still reeling from his sudden loss, but we're sure they'll continue to make beautiful music together on screen.

Stay tuned for more updates on Ashley Park and Paul Forman's breakup, and don't forget to catch Emily in Paris when it premieres on Netflix this December!
