I remember being so disappointed when I first heard Brett Goldstein speak in his normal voice. He did something to his natural speaking voice on Ted Lasso – he managed to consistently make his voice deeper and gruffer as he played Roy Kent, a character for which Goldstein won two Emmys. The real Brett Goldstein is more of an artsy writer/actor/comedian, and he actually comes across as very sweet and unassuming. Well, Goldstein will soon work with Jennifer Lopez on Office Romance, and people are trying to make “J.Lo + Brett” into a thing. They were also recently spotted at a play!
Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein are spending some quality time together. The pair was spotted at Oh, Mary! to support Betty Gilpin, who stars in the upcoming Office Romance with them.
J.Lo and Brett took a photo with the cast alongside Meryl Streep and Martin Short, as one does, but before you read into things, they were standing on opposite sides of the group.
That said, a source just told the Daily Mail, “After a very tough start to 2025, Jennifer can’t wait to start a new project and it certainly helps that she will be working with a very handsome and smart star like Brett. He is one hot ticket and a real class act with talent to back it up—he not only acts but he writes amazing scripts. He is like the younger, better, British version of Ben. She thinks he is very cute.”
The source also somewhat hilariously claimed that “Ben knows who Brett is, he is plenty aware. Brett is younger and smarter than Ben. It will irk him for sure.”
While Goldstein isn’t married, he has been with Beth Rylance for years and I’m pretty sure they’re still together, although they keep it pretty quiet. Just FYI – I’m sure J.Lo loves flirting with a handsome British man, but I think this will just be a friendship and working relationship for them. I also hope that J.Lo isn’t constantly thinking about “so-and-so is like Ben/Ben will be so jealous!” Enough!!

Well I think everyone has a crush on Brett Goldstein!
I came here to say the same! I mean how could she not?
I hope Jen uses discernment going forward in her romantic life. No need to go after taken men and no need to go back to Ben.
What? Go back to Ben? Did she say she wants to during this shit show?
I am much more interested in the potential romance of Meryl Streep and Martin Short!!
Exactly the pairing of Meryl and Martin seems much more real. This just sounds like someones’s fantasy of “show him what he’s missing.”’ And Brett’s taken? It must be hard to be a unfamous person dating a famous person. People act like you don’t exist. But the snark on Ben shows real animosity: “younger and smarter” and “better” too! Hahaha
Brett admitted to having a massive crush on JLo
I don’t know what kind of man JLo needs but I don’t think Brett is the type.
Her world and orbit has grown so big and she is the center of the universe in it – it would be hard for anyone to enter her world. I genuinely think, among his many issues, it’s one of the things that freaked Ben out – how big her orbit has gotten in 20 years and there’s always people around and she lives nothing near a normal life.
JLo needs someone who can handle her world but also isn’t enough of their own person to feel stifled by it. I don’t know who would fit that description.
I hope she dates whoever she wants at this stage. Ben screwed her over so badly. No one bats an eye at mens dating histories but everyone seems to have a list of women’s and how many, how inappropriate, whatever they can judge.. We see it here too. . Screw all the boys, jen. You get to do anything you want.
Well, her number of divorces is double his. Engagements too.
But yes, misogyny needs to be flushed.
My daughter lives in NYC and she and her husband saw JLo and Brett dining together at the Waverly Inn over the weekend.
Brett has been on Raya according to a friend’s 24 year old daughter
Who doesn’t?!
Eh I don’t believe this. They are working on a rom com and have to promote it. Can’t co workers get to know each other in a social setting? It’s just the post stirring the pot. Again.
Leave Brett Goldstein out of this mess please
