Simone Ashley, Joshua Jackson Spotted Together In NYC, Spark Dating Buzz
Simone Ashley and Joshua Jackson, two well-known actors, were recently spotted spending time together in New York City. This caught the attention of fans and the media, who quickly began to wonder if the two might be dating. The sighting is notable because it is the first time the pair have been seen out in public alone, sharing laughs and walking close to each other. Both actors have busy work lives but found a moment to enjoy each other's company, which has only added to the excitement around their relationship.
Over the weekend, the two actors were seen enjoying a relaxed stroll, sharing laughs and walking closely in Manhattan. Joshua Jackson, 47, dressed casually in a white T-shirt paired with dark pants and green sneakers. Meanwhile, 30-year-old Simone Ashley opted for a white lace camisole, a printed midi skirt, and white sneakers. This marks the first public appearance of the pair spending time alone together.
Their meeting comes amid demanding work commitments for both stars. Joshua Jackson is currently filming Happy Hours in New York, a project that reunites him with his Dawson's Creek co-star Katie Holmes. On the other hand, Simone Ashley is working on The Devil Wears Prada 2, starring alongside acclaimed actress Meryl Streep.
Simone Ashley has been open about focusing on personal growth after ending her long-term relationship with Constantin 'Tino" Klein earlier this year. Speaking candidly in February, she described herself as being in a 'single era" and expressed no hurry to begin dating again. 'It can be easy to jump into the next thing immediately, which is something that I am choosing not to do," Ashley told People magazine in March. She also shared her hopes for a future partner: 'I'm looking for someone who is so confident in themselves and is really ready to have an open heart in the same way I do. And I think that's hard to find."
The actress said that her current year is filled with exciting professional projects and personal growth.
Joshua Jackson has also been single for some time. He was previously linked to Lupita Nyong'o, with whom he confirmed a relationship in December 2023. The couple enjoyed a beach vacation in Mexico following their public announcement. Joshua's relationship with Nyong'o began shortly after his divorce from Jodie Turner-Smith was filed in October 2023, concluding their four-year marriage. Jackson and Turner-Smith share a daughter named Juno and have been involved in a custody dispute.
Neither Joshua Jackson nor Simone Ashley have commented publicly on the recent sightings or the ensuing dating rumours.

Mrunal Thakur Shares First Post Amid Backlash Over 'Insulting' Bipasha Basu: 'Stop Staring'
Mrunal Thakur posts bold photos amid backlash over her Bipasha Basu comment and Dhanush dating rumours. Mrunal Thakur has found herself in the spotlight for both her professional and personal life. While her latest film Son of Sardaar 2 is struggling at the box office, she is also facing social media backlash after an old video resurfaced where she appeared to throw shade at Bipasha Basu. Adding to the chatter are rumours linking her to South superstar Dhanush. On Monday, the actress seemed unfazed by the criticism as she took to Instagram with a series of striking photos in a black outfit and sunglasses, captioned, 'Stop staring!" While her fans showered her with praise, detractors continued to reference the controversy. One user commented, 'You're lucky people know you now after you used Bipasha's name," while another wrote, 'Bipasha is iconic!" 'She insulted Bipasha," a third user said. What Mrunal Thakur Said About Bipasha Basu The clip at the centre of the storm dates back to her Kumkum Bhagya days, where she was seen chatting about fitness with co-star Arjit Taneja. When asked about physical preferences, she remarked, 'Go marry Bipasha then. Listen, I am far better than Bipasha." The comment has sparked criticism, with many calling it an unnecessary dig at another actress. Netizens were quick to react, with an old Reddit thread resurfacing as well. One user alleged, 'She has always been a typical mean girl… she was mean towards her ex on Nach Baliye and has a very crass way of talking." The clip has now gone viral across social media platforms, fuelling debate about her attitude. Mrunal Thakur and Dhanush Dating Rumours While her alleged 'Bipasha comment" stirred one controversy, her personal life made headlines too. Rumours of a romance with Dhanush began circulating after he attended the Son of Sardaar 2 screening. In a recent interview cited by Only Kollywood, Mrunal clarified, 'Dhanush is just a good friend to me." She further explained his presence at the event, saying, 'Dhanush attended the Son of Sardaar 2 event. No one should misunderstand that. It was Ajay Devgn who invited him." Despite the ongoing chatter, Mrunal seems determined to maintain her focus, letting her work and confident social media presence do the talking.
