Are Huda Mustafa and Louis Russell dating? Here’s how reality TV’s newest crossover couple might just be a thing

It has not even been a full month since Love Island USA finalist Huda Mustafa called it quits with Chris Seeley, but sis is clearly not wasting any time dwelling. On July 31, Huda confidently hit the Weapons world premiere red carpet in full glam, and oh, did she bring a date. Yep, she was seen holding hands with none other than Too Hot to Handle and Perfect Match heartthrob Louis Russell. That is right, Louis, the walking jawline model from Netflix. Talk about a soft launch with main character energy.


If you think this was a one-time PR stunt, think again. DeuxMoi tipsters spilled the tea that the pair were also spotted two weeks prior, holding hands and shopping at The Grove in Los Angeles. So yes, the timeline is timelines-ing, and it looks like there is definitely more than just “good vibes” going on here.



In case you lost count, Louis Russell has now been on Too Hot to Handle (twice!), Battle Camp, and is currently starring on Perfect Match season 3, which, reminder, was filmed last summer. Spoiler alert: he is coupled up with Sandy Gallagher from The Ultimatum... but plot twist, it clearly did not last.


Because, well, he is now popping up everywhere with Huda. Reality show drama? We are living for it.


For anyone hoping for a reunion with Chris, keep dreaming. Huda made it crystal clear in a chat with Entertainment Tonight that she is over it. She said she wishes him well, but being cordial does not mean being close. Only a select few make it into her inner circle, and Chris? Not on the list.

So, are they official? Still a mystery… for now

Neither Huda nor Louis have confirmed a relationship, but their body language is louder than a Too Hot to Handle elimination. With the Love Island USA reunion airing on August 25, all eyes are now on Huda to see if she spills more tea.



Are they dating? We will be seated with popcorn either way.
