Time for an update in the ongoing pop culture saga that is “Are Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein dating?” These two have been linked since filming their upcoming rom-com Office Romance. Some details?
- A few weeks ago in early April 2026, a source told the Daily Mail that “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. They were very touchy-feely and always laughing, and everyone suspected they were hooking up.”
- In May 2025, a source told DeuxMoi that J.Lo and Brett were seen “canoodling in Cayo Levantado (in the Dominican Republic) at their Office Romance wrap party,” and then they snuck “off to a private cabana to be alone.”
- More recently, a source told The Sun, “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.”
So, what’s going on?
The Daily Mail now reports that these two are in a “showmance” and are trying to “drum up buzz for their Netflix rom-com.”
Per a source, “Jennifer and Brett are not dating or romantically involved at all, one insider told us exclusively. They think it’s actually really funny that people are suggesting they are [dating], and they’re going with it because they’re both really excited for Office Romance to come out.”
They added, “Brett is a star, but he isn’t a leading man that everyone knows about and cares about. This movie he is doing with Jen, it is her job to make him and she is taking on that position to heart. She wants him to be the next big thing. If the movie is received well and he also gets the shine from ‘being in a relationship’ with J-Lo, it shows that he is important and on his way to leading man status. As much as there is chemistry, they are also playing the game to make him into something he isn’t yet. She will take the attention it brings and she will gladly give him some shine, but it is currently nothing more than a showmance for them over a romance.”
