Is Bill Murray dating Kelis?
The Sun exclusively revealed on Thursday that the Hollywood superstar Bill Murray and the Milkshake singer have struck up an unlikely romance - with an almost 30 year age gap between them.
The Ghostbusters actor, 72, watched the mum of three, 43, perform from the side of the stage in London last weekend - having also been spotted at her other recent shows.
Sources say the pair were also together at the same hotel, and have been “getting close for a while” after first meeting in the US.
They have reportedly bonded since Mike Mora's passing, while Bill’s estranged wife passed away in 2021.
Father-of-six Bill was pictured during Kelis’s set at the Mighty Hoopla festival in Brockwell Park, South London.
A friend said: “They’ve met up in the States before which got people in the industry talking, and now are meeting up in London while they’re both here. They’ve clearly hit it off.

“But they’ve also both shared relatively recent bereavements and have that common bond between them.
“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.”
