Gracie Abrams and Paul Mescal have garnered approval from Abrams’ father, J.J. Abrams, regarding their relationship. The couple first sparked dating rumors in 2024 and made their romance Instagram official in July of the same year, though they have maintained a relatively private approach to their personal lives.
A source recently shared with Star that Abrams and Mescal are committed to managing their long-distance relationship despite the challenges posed by their hectic schedules. According to the insider, the pair are an “awesome physical match” and share similar personalities. Both have shown tremendous dedication to their careers, which has made it difficult for them to spend time together.
While Gracie has reportedly adjusted well to the demands of a long-distance relationship, her family—including her father—has been supportive of Mescal. However, questions remain about his long-term intentions, as the source indicated that Abrams is still focused on her own ambitions.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Mescal discussed their decision to go public with their relationship, expressing a desire to keep certain aspects of their lives private and precious to him. He emphasized the need to protect those moments that are deeply personal.
As both celebrities experience a surge in their careers—Abrams recently receiving her first Grammy nomination for her collaboration “Us” with Taylor Swift, and Mescal starring in acclaimed films like “The History of Sound” and “Hamnet”—the couple continues to navigate the complexities of their relationship amid their individual successes. Their story reflects a balance between love and ambition, showcasing how personal connections can thrive even in the face of demanding professional lives.
