Jennifer Lopez and Keith Urban‘s recently rekindled friendship is sparking quite a bit of talk lately. With both of the celebrities recently going through divorce and their past close friendship, the thought of a romance between the pair is raising more than a few eyebrows. The alleged romance rumors began when insiders reported that Jennifer Lopez reached out to Keith Urban after his split from Nicole Kidman. Both stars, now navigating life after high-profile separations, are feeling the bite and loneliness of their breakups. So, seeking out comfort and understanding from someone else who is going through the same is no surprise.
Sources say Lopez’s gesture of support was warmly received by Urban, according to Radar Online. Keith reportedly felt grateful to Jennifer for reaching out, especially amid the swirling negativity following his divorce. However, as most know, things are never that easy, especially for celebrities like Jennifer Lopez.
“Keith has been so grateful for her support. A lot of people have shunned him in favor of Nicole, so J.Lo’s kindness is highlighted,” the insider reveals. “She knows what a good heart he has and thinks it’s horrendous that he is having to deal with all these attacks on his character.”
Jennifer is still nursing a heartache after her breakup with Ben Affleck. Not to mention, as fans know, she’s not exactly the type to spend much time alone. Insiders claim that seeing Keith, recently freed from his marriage to Nicole, reignited familiar chemistry.
