American singer-songwriter Jennifer Lopez and Australian-American country singer and songwriter Keith Urban have sparked fresh romance speculation, with reports claiming the two have stayed in close contact following their respective high-profile breakups. The two singers share a history, having worked together as judges on American Idol in 2014, alongside Harry Connick Jr. Lopez returned for the show’s 13th season, with the trio continuing together for another season. While their time on the panel established a friendly working relationship, there has been no confirmed romantic involvement between Lopez and Urban.
According to an unnamed source cited by RadarOnline.com, the two have allegedly been communicating frequently and may have met privately, with their friendship reportedly growing closer as they navigate life after marriage. However, neither has publicly confirmed the claims.
Lopez’s personal life has long drawn attention, particularly her relationship with actor Ben Affleck. The two first got engaged in 2002 before calling it off in 2004, only to rekindle their romance nearly two decades later. They married in 2022, but Lopez filed for divorce in August 2024, citing April 26, 2024, as their date of separation.
