Talk about a Hollywood love story no one saw coming! Legendary stars Meryl Streep and Martin Short are reportedly more than just good friends \u2014 they\u2019ve been quietly dating for over a year, according to RadarOnline.com<\/em>.<\/p>\n

While the two icons managed to keep their romance under wraps for quite some time, eagle-eyed fans of their Hulu series Only Murders in the Building<\/em> had already been whispering about the sparks flying between them.<\/p>\n

An insider spilled to Page Six<\/em>, \u201cMeryl couldn\u2019t help but fall for Martin. He\u2019s a true gentleman, he keeps her laughing, and he\u2019s just an all-around positive, bright light. She absolutely loves being around him.\u201d Their love story wasn\u2019t a grand plan, either. The source added, \u201cThey weren\u2019t actively looking for a relationship \u2014 it just happened naturally.\u201d<\/p>\n

Their families and close friends are reportedly all for the pairing, too. \u201cTheir kids and inner circle think they\u2019re adorable together,\u201d the insider shared.<\/p>\n

Though they\u2019ve made an effort to keep things private, fans started to catch on after spotting them holding hands at several public events last year. More recently, the couple made a few high-profile appearances on the same night \u2014 first posing with Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein backstage at the Broadway show Oh, Mary!<\/em>, then later turning up together at Saturday Night Live<\/em>, where they were seen warmly interacting with fans and security, per a video obtained by TMZ<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Their connection isn\u2019t brand new \u2014 Meryl and Martin have been friends for years, with a circle of mutual friends that helped deepen their bond over time. And both stars know the highs and lows of long-term love. Meryl quietly separated from her husband of 40 years, Don Gummer, back in 2017, while Martin heartbreakingly lost his beloved wife, Nancy Dolman, to ovarian cancer in 2010.<\/p>\n

Despite being blissfully happy together now, marriage doesn\u2019t seem to be on the horizon. A source noted that Meryl remains legally married to Don Gummer, but even beyond that, neither she nor Martin feels the need to formalize their relationship. They\u2019re perfectly content enjoying life as boyfriend and girlfriend.<\/p>\n

Honestly? It\u2019s giving \u201cHollywood royalty meets cozy romance,\u201d and we are so<\/em> here for it. \ud83e\udd79\u2728<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
