A brief but captivating romance has come to an end as actor Bill Murray and singer Kelis reportedly split after just two months of dating. The unexpected breakup has caught the attention of fans, especially considering the age difference between the 72-year-old “Ghostbusters” star and the 44-year-old “Milkshake” singer.
Contrary to common expectations, it was Kelis who initiated the decision to end the relationship, as per sources close to the couple. The breakup is said to be amicable, with insiders noting that the two entertainers hold mutual fondness for each other. According to one insider, “Kelis and Bill were — and still are — very fond of each other but things just ran their course.” The busy schedules of both individuals contributed to the mutual decision to go their separate ways after a whirlwind summer romance.
The two first sparked rumors of their relationship earlier this year, with Bill reportedly attending several of Kelis’ performances during her summer tour. The unexpected pairing, with a significant age gap, garnered attention from fans and media alike.
Kelis, known for her hit songs like “Milkshake” and “Trick Me,” was previously married and lost her second husband, Mike Mora, to stomach cancer in March 2022. The two musicians reportedly found solace in each other’s company, connecting during a chance meeting that blossomed into a short-lived romance.
During their time together, Kelis and Bill Murray navigated the public’s curiosity about their relationship. Kelis playfully addressed the speculation on her Instagram, responding to a fan’s question about the alleged romance with a snarky yet vague comment. She wrote, “Lol no babe, I wouldn’t bother at all.” This light-hearted exchange gave fans a glimpse into the couple’s dynamic.
As the news of their split emerges, both Kelis and Bill Murray are said to be focusing on their individual lives. While their romantic journey may have been brief, the two entertainers part ways with respect and goodwill, leaving their fans intrigued by this unexpected chapter in their lives.
