That something is brewing between Keith Urban and Jennifer Lopez is apparently "no secret" to close friends of the musical duo. According to insiders, it's taking things to the next level that has proven to be a "problem."
A source told Heat World UK that ever since Urban split from ex-wife Nicole Kidman, Lopez has been a close friend and support; she herself is recovering from her split from Ben Affleck in 2024.
Despite their growing friendship, the duo reportedly remain pretty much in the friendzone, with a mutual friend saying, "The problem is [Keith] doesn't seem to have the guts to make the first move. Whenever his friends tell him he should ask her out, he comes up with excuses."
With friends of the two urging them to date, will they take it to the next level? "People in both their worlds are trying to play matchmaker for them," a source close to them said. "The idea of teaming up for some sort of romantic duet has been suggested as a way to jump-start things."
