Jennifer Lopez may have a new man in her life, and this time, it's someone who hasn't exactly kept his admiration for her a secret.
The 57-year-old singer and actress is reportedly dating Ted Lasso star Brett Goldstein, 46, after the two previously denied being romantically involved. According to Page Six, the former Office Romance co-stars have started seeing each other, although a source described their relationship as “casual.”
The development follows a Deuxmoi report linking Lopez and Goldstein after they attended a Hollywood party on October 16. The pair reportedly arrived at and left the Los Angeles gathering in the same vehicle but entered separately, avoiding photos together.
And while neither has publicly confirmed a relationship, their reported romance follows months of speculation about their chemistry.
Lopez and Goldstein worked together on Netflix's Office Romance, which brought the actress opposite the British comedian and actor, best known for playing Roy Kent on Ted Lasso. Goldstein has openly discussed his longtime admiration for Lopez, including his familiarity with her filmography and his interest in working with her.
Their May promotional appearances fueled speculation that that enthusiasm had grown into something beyond a professional relationship. Both previously denied dating, making the latest report a change from their earlier public positions.
A source speaking to Page Six suggested the two share similar interests outside work.
“The one thing they have in common is they both enjoy going out to parties and restaurants,” the insider said, before taking a swipe at Lopez's ex-husband Ben Affleck. “Unlike her ex Ben [Affleck], who always had a scowl on his face when they were out.”
The reported relationship comes two years after Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck in August 2024. The former couple famously rekindled their romance in 2021, nearly two decades after calling off their original engagement, and married in 2022. They finalized their divorce in February 2025.
Following their separation, Lopez acknowledged that her approach to relationships needed to change. During an October 2025 appearance on The Howard Stern Show, she admitted that sharing so much of her romantic life publicly had created problems.
“My personal life has suffered at times because of that,” she said, explaining that future relationships would require greater privacy.
“You have to change your behavior if you want to have a successful relationship in your life,” Lopez added.
Her romantic history has remained a recurring subject of public attention. Lopez has been married four times, including to Ojani Noa, Cris Judd, Marc Anthony and Affleck.
Noa publicly accused Lopez of infidelity in 2025, allegations that have not been substantiated, while Lopez has spoken about nearly giving up during the aftermath of her separation from Anthony, with whom she shares twins Max and Emme.
Goldstein, meanwhile, would represent Lopez's first publicly reported romance since her divorce from Affleck.
