Jennifer Lopez Reportedly ‘Casually Dating’ Brett Goldstein

Jennifer Lopez and her Office Romance co-star Brett Goldstein are reportedly seeing each other casually, according to a new report.

The Hustlers star, 57, and the Ted Lasso actor, 46, are said to be enjoying a ‘casual’ romance, a source told Page Six on Monday, following their cozy red carpet appearances and reports of ‘undeniable’ chemistry.

An insider claimed the pair share a love of socializing, contrasting their outgoing nature with the public demeanor of Lopez’s former husband, Ben Affleck, 54.

“They both enjoy attending parties and dining out,” the source told the publication. “That’s different from her ex Ben, who often appeared to have a scowl on his face when they went out together.”

Lopez, who has previously praised Goldstein as “the best kisser” she has worked with, was recently spotted with the actor at a talent manager’s party in Los Angeles on October 16.

The two reportedly traveled in the same vehicle, although they arrived at the event separately.

The Daily Mail has contacted representatives for Lopez and Goldstein for comment.

Jennifer Lopez, 57, and her Office Romance co-star Brett Goldstein, 46, are reportedly dating “casually,” according to Page Six. The pair are pictured together in June.

The latest report is not the first time Lopez and Goldstein have fueled romance speculation. The pair have previously denied that they are dating.

At the Los Angeles premiere of their Netflix movie Office Romance in May, Lopez appeared delighted when Goldstein gave her kissing technique a “12 out of 10” rating.

The pair looked comfortable together on the red carpet at Hollywood’s Egyptian Theatre, adding to speculation that they had become close after filming the movie. They also answered questions about their on-screen kiss.

The star previously raved about Goldstein being ‘the best kisser’ she has ever worked with, and he returned the favor at the event, telling ET that her kiss was ‘the best’, which left her beaming.

Lopez, who has gone through four divorces, laughed before Goldstein responded and quipped, “Well, what is he going to say in front of me?”

Goldstein said hearing Lopez speak so highly of him felt “better than winning an Emmy,” while Lopez joked that she had been put “on the spot” during the interview.

During an October 2025 appearance on Watch What Happens Live, Lopez had already offered a glowing review of her co-star. “I’m gonna say I just did a movie with Brett Goldstein, and I would say he was the best kisser,” she said.

Fans further fueled the dating rumors after Lopez posted a reel from the event on Instagram, with many viewers saying the pair appeared to share undeniable chemistry.

“Look at the way she looks at him,” one fan commented.

Another wrote, “I have a feeling about you two.”

“I don’t know about a movie, but J.Lo is dating Roy Kent—that’s what I saw,” another fan joked, referencing Goldstein’s popular Ted Lasso character.

The actor is thought to have been single since 2022, when he split from girlfriend Beth Rylance after a year.

Aside from their sizzling relationship onscreen, there have been whispers about their ‘electric’ chemistry offscreen.

‘It was an open secret during filming about Brett and J-Lo – they got on like a house on fire from the start, and the chemistry was electric, which viewers will see,’ a source told The Sun earlier this year.

‘They were very touchy, feely, and always laughing, and everyone suspected they were hooking up.’

Another insider said, ‘During the wrap party, they were all over each other during the dinner and drinks with the rest of the cast.’

‘They had a lot of fun while shooting; it was just what Jen needed after Ben Affleck. He put a smile on her face.’

‘There were quite a few jokes about Brett just being the British version of Ben. She was definitely a fan of his British charm and really felt looked after on set.’

In September 2024, the duo were spotted at the Broadway show Oh, Mary! Together, watching their co-star Betty Gilpin perform.

The two previously denied romance rumors during an interview on Today while promoting their film.

‘There’s never a time when I’m seen with somebody or working with somebody where they don’t try to put me with the person,’ Lopez said, as Goldstein added, ‘I think if you stand near her, that’s what happens.’

‘OK, so you’re not dating in real life?’ Savannah Guthrie asked.

‘Not dating,’ Lopez said, to which Goldstein added, ‘Correct.’

Goldstein later gushed about his strong chemistry with Lopez during the early days of their relationship, saying, ‘When we first met on the Zoom it was instant.’

In Office Romance, they star as two workaholics who strike up a secret office romance that threatens to derail their life and careers.

Do celebrity “chemistry” make real relationships more believable or just fuel the gossip cycle?
