Steve Martin might be fueling the fire when it comes to the romance rumors surrounding his Only Murders in the Building co-stars, Meryl Streep and Martin Short!
Fans have been speculating that Meryl and Martin might be more than just friends ever since the 2024 Golden Globes. Back in January, they raised eyebrows when they were seen holding hands at the event. At the time, a rep for Martin Short quickly shut down the rumors, stating that they were “just very good friends.” But the sightings haven’t stopped, and the rumors continue to swirl.
Just recently, Meryl and Martin were spotted out on the town again, this time with another Hollywood couple, raising even more questions about the nature of their relationship. And now, Steve Martin seems to be having a little fun with the speculation.
Taking to Instagram, Steve posted a photo of himself alongside Meryl and Martin. The image, originally featured in Glamour magazine, had one notable change: Steve had placed a large red X over his own face. The cryptic post came with no caption, leaving fans to wonder if he was playfully hinting at something deeper going on between the two.
The comments section quickly filled with fan theories and excitement. “I don’t know why the thought of Meryl and Martin makes me so happy but it honestly fills my heart with joy,” one fan gushed.
Another fan cheekily asked, “Did Steve just hard launch the relationship?”
Steve’s post, while lighthearted, has only added fuel to the fire, leaving everyone to wonder if he’s in on the joke or if there’s something more to the Streep-Short relationship rumors.
So, did Steve Martin just confirm the romance? We’ll be keeping a close eye on these three to see if more details emerge!
