Meryl Streep and Martin Short Spark Dating Rumors Again After ‘SNL’ Appearance

Meryl Streep and Martin Short are once again igniting the rumor mill, having arrived together at a recent taping of “Saturday Night Live.” Despite their insistence that they are merely friends, their late-night excursions and shared car rides are making it hard for fans and tabloids to believe them. The duo was spotted pulling up to 30 Rockefeller Plaza just ten minutes before the show kicked off, casually exiting the vehicle while exchanging pleasantries with a security guard and greeting a few eager fans.
Their chemistry comes as no surprise, considering they starred together in the third season of Hulu’s hit show “Only Murders in the Building,” alongside Selena Gomez and Steve Martin. Their on-screen camaraderie has undoubtedly fueled speculation about a possible romance, despite a representative for Short asserting last year that the two are just friends. However, the duo has been inseparable lately, frequently appearing at various events, including the star-studded ‘SNL50’ celebrations.
Adding another layer to the intrigue, Jennifer Lopez recently shared a behind-the-scenes snapshot from the Broadway show “Oh, Mary!” featuring Streep, Short, and other notable celebrities, further entwining these stars in the web of public curiosity.
The glimmering lights of Broadway and the iconic status of “SNL” seem to be the backdrop for a budding friendship—or perhaps something more? While Streep and Short remain tight-lipped about their relationship status, fans can’t help but speculate whether their frequent collaborations indicate a deeper connection. As the saying goes, where there’s smoke, there’s fire, and in Hollywood, it seems that the lines between friendship and romance can often blur.
For now, the public awaits any updates from their representatives, but until then, the playful banter and shared moments between Streep and Short will continue to fuel the rumor mill. After all, who doesn’t love a little celebrity gossip?
