AceShowbiz - Martin Short and legendary actress Meryl Streep were spotted in high spirits after sharing a meal at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, California. As Streep drove Short home after the outing, fans and media outlets have actively debated whether the two are dating.

The pair, both 74 and 75 years old, respectively, have been igniting rumors since their on-screen chemistry as lovers in Hulu's "Only Murders In The Building". In addition, their interactions off-screen, including witty banter and holding hands at events, have further fueled the speculation.

Short himself has expressed admiration for Streep, stating that their friendship has deepened through their work together. Despite the mounting evidence, neither party has officially confirmed a romantic involvement.

The potential relationship has been met with enthusiasm on social media, with many expressing their support for the blossoming romance. Streep and Short have both experienced significant loss in their previous relationships; Streep separated from ex-husband Don Gummer six years ago, while Short lost his wife, Nancy Dolman, to cancer in 2010.

While the rumors remain unverified, the cozy outing and ongoing speculation continue to captivate the public's attention.
