Bill Murray, the veteran actor, and Kelis, the singer-songwriter, have reportedly started dating, according to a recent report by The Sun. The two have been frequently spotted together in various locations both in the United States and across the pond, making them Hollywood’s newest couple.
Despite the age difference between the two (72-year-old Bill and 43-year-old Kelis), they seem to have found common ground in their shared experiences of loss. Kelis lost her second husband in March 2022, while Bill’s estranged wife passed away in 2021, which reportedly brought them closer together.
While attending one of Kelis’s shows in London, the two reportedly took a backstage photo together, and they were also seen at the same London hotel. Their connection seems to have developed since they linked up stateside.
Despite rumors of their relationship, Bill and Kelis have not confirmed their romance, and they have not put any labels on their situation. A friend cited in The Sun is reported to have said, “Whatever it is that has brought them together, and however unlikely it seems, they are both single and are having fun despite the fairly big age gap.”
Bill Murray has had a long and storied career in Hollywood, starting as a cast member on the television show “Saturday Night Live” before transitioning into a successful movie career that includes hits such as “Groundhog Day,” “Ghostbusters,” and “Lost in Translation.”
Kelis made her rise to fame in the early 2000s with her hit song “Milkshake” and has since released several successful albums in the R&B and electronic music genres. In recent years, she has also added cooking to her repertoire, releasing a cookbook and appearing on several food-related television shows.
Despite their different paths to fame, Bill and Kelis seem to be enjoying each other’s company and exploring their connection. Representatives for both have not yet commented on the rumors of their relationship.
