It’s understands why fans want to know if Josephine Langford and Hero Fiennes Tiffin are dating since After. The two stars as the leads and love interests of one of the most well-known romance franchises of the 2010s: the After series, based on the books and Harry Styles fan fiction by Anna Todd.
In After, Langford stars as Tessa Young, a college freshman who starts a relationship with bad boy Hardin Scott. The end of the movie sees Hardin and Tessa break up after Tessa learns that Hardin pursued a relationship with her as a challenge to see if he could make her fall in love with him and then break her heart. After We Collided, the sequel to After, premiered on October 23 and followed Tessa and Hardin’s relationship after their breakup.
Since the premiere of After in 2019, fans have shipped Langford and Tiffin, but are they dating in real life? Sorry to disappoint, fans, but Langford and Tiffin’s off-screen relationship seems like far from Hardin and Tessa’s on-screen romance. In an interview with Elle in 2019, after the release of After, Tiffin confirmed he was single at the time and never had a real girlfriend. “Interestingly enough,” he said. “I’ve never had, like, a proper relationship. I haven’t had a girl I would call my girlfriend.” Still, even if they were dating, it’s unlikely that Langford and Tiffin would go public with their relationship.
“My brain has so many qualities that do not work with social media. I’m an overthinker, I’m overly private, and those two personality traits just do not work when it comes to Instagram,” Langford told Refinery29 in 2019.
