Two Hollywood greats, Meryl Streep and Martin Short played an on-screen couple in the last season of Only Murders In The Building.
However, it seems the acting was so good that the pair have people convinced that their love affair continued off-screen.
The rumours seemed to start after the pair attended the Golden Globes together.
Along with the fact Streep recently confirmed her split from long-time partner, Don Gummer, and some added fuel from gossip site, Deuxmoi, the internet had people convinced that the pair were an actual couple.
Deux Moi first referred to the alleged romance back in December, when she wrote about the pair in her newsletter. This week, she didn’t back down from the rumours, when she claimed the pair were the “real deal.”
While we might hope that there might be some truth to the romance rumours, Short’s representatives quickly shut the speculations down.
“They are just very good friends, nothing more,” the rep told E! News.
While it’s not exactly the answer we were hoping for, we’re still loving their sweet friendship.
