Jennifer Lopez And Brett Goldstein Spark Romance Rumors After Attending LA Party Together

According to reports, Lopez and Goldstein were spotted at the star-studded party in Los Angeles. Although they reportedly arrived and left in the same car, they entered separately, with the mom-of-two walking in alongside her longtime manager, Benny Medina.

According to Page Six, an insider has since claimed that the pair are "casually" dating, adding: "The one thing they have in common is they both enjoy going out to parties and restaurants."

The source went on to make a little swipe at J-Lo's latest ex-husband, Ben Affleck, suggesting that the Gone Girl actor wasn't quite as enthusiastic about going out. They added: "Unlike her ex Ben who always had a scowl on his face when they were out." Zing!

Jennifer Lopez And Brett Goldstein Reportedly Grew Close While Filming 'Office Romance'

According to earlier reports from Page Six, the pair really hit it off while filming Office Romance, with an insider claiming that their chemistry was undeniable.

"They tried to keep things low-key during the months while filming but flirted here and there on set, and they definitely had a strong connection. Everyone saw them getting very cozy together at the wrap party and it was obvious they were into each other. Once filming wrapped, they were free to take things further and dated for quite some time," the source claimed.

Interestingly, the Kiss of the Spider Woman actress and Goldstein previously denied dating rumors during a June appearance on Today, with Lopez insisting they were "not dating" and Goldstein agreeing, "Correct."

However, that wasn't enough to stop the rumors, especially as the Hustlers alum described Goldstein as the "best kisser" during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, which was also discussed on Today. She was, of course, talking about their on-screen kiss, but that didn't stop the rumor mill from turning!

Jennifer Lopez Reportedly Ended Romance Because Brett Goldstein Didn't Fit Her 'Long-Term Vision'

Despite their reported chemistry, things "just sort of fizzled out between them," according to a Page Six insider. Another insider speaking to OK! explained that Goldstein was the perfect distraction for Lopez while she was going through her divorce from Ben Affleck, providing her with "lightness and escape."

According to the source, Lopez was able to enjoy their fling because it came "without the weight of expectation," but never thought the relationship would materialize beyond something casual because she didn't see him fitting into the "long-term vision she has for herself."

This reportedly included wanting a partner who matched her lifestyle, level of fame, wealth, and ambitions, which the insider claimed "naturally narrows the field when it comes to who she sees as a long-term fit."

This is why the rumors of J-Lo dating the "Blue Ain't Your Color" country singer seemed quite believable. But anyone who has seen Office Romance will know that Lopez and Goldstein have plenty of on-screen chemistry, too!
