The last few episodes of Euphoria featured Jules (Hunter Schafer), a newly reunited woman with Rue (Zendaya), who flirted and finally kissed Elliot (Dominic Fike).
It turns out that the chemistry between Schafer & Fike is more than what you see on the screen.
Fike’s recent Instagram posts seem to confirm that they are officially in a relationship.
Fike and Schafer are seen sitting at a table in a restaurant and sharing a kiss with Fike over a piece of chocolate cake. He wrote, “Happy birthday happy birthday” over the image, even though Schafer and Fike are both December birthdays.
