Martin Short Makes Brief Comment About Those Meryl Streep Romance Rumors, Reveals How Long He'd Continue Doing 'Only Murders in the Building'

Martin Short is in promo mode for season four of Only Murders in the Building.

One of the questions he was asked in a new interview was about the rumors that surfaced about him and his co-star, Meryl Streep. In Only Murders, Meryl and Martin‘s characters are romantically linked. At the 2024 Golden Globes back in January, real-life romance rumors began circulating when Meryl and Martin were seated next to one another. At the time, his rep released a statement about the rumors.

Rumors continued circulating after Martin and Meryl were photographed out to dinner together one month later in February.

In a new interview with THR, Martin was asked about the rumors that they’re romantically involved. In fact, Martin apparently insisted that a romance between them is not in the cards and that they are “friends.”

The interview pivoted to a variety of other topics.

About how long he’d do the show, he shared, “In the ’70s, I remember watching Tony Randall on Johnny Carson, and The Odd Couple had been going for four years, and Johnny said, ‘Tony, how long will you stay with this show?’ And Tony just looked at him and said, ‘John, that’s the dumbest question I’ve ever been asked. I will stay with the show as long as it exists because it’s a hit, and a hit is a fluke. In show business, there are singles, there are doubles, there are triples, and there are strikeouts. But a home run is very, very rare.’ And I totally agree with that.”
