Jennifer Lopez could be looking for a different kind of relationship after her 2024 split from Ben Affleck, and Keith Urban has reportedly caught her attention. A source claims the singer and actress has grown closer to the country star, whose reportedly laid-back personality could offer a different dynamic from the “alpha male” partners she has chosen in the past.

Lopez, 57, has reportedly spent time reflecting on what went wrong in her previous relationships after her marriage to Affleck ended in 2024. During a May appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Lopez said she still believed she could meet someone in the future if the right person came along. According to a source cited by RadarOnline, Lopez may now be getting to know Keith Urban. Urban, 58, ended his marriage to Nicole Kidman in 2025. The source claimed that he and Lopez have stayed in frequent contact since their respective divorces. “They’ve confided in one another because they’re so private and guarded around other people,” the source claimed.

Lopez and Urban are not strangers to each other. They first worked closely together in 2014 when they both served as judges on the 13th season of American Idol. The insider claims their newfound single status has sparked speculation that their longstanding friendship could develop into something more. “There’s a lot of talk that Keith is thinking of taking things up a notch,” the source said.

According to the insider, Lopez needs a partner who can handle her level of fame and ambition. Urban, the source claimed, fits that description because he has built a successful career of his own. “He’s a megastar in his own right,” the insider said, suggesting that Urban would not feel overshadowed by Lopez’s success or expect her to step back from the spotlight. Urban, by comparison, allegedly has a more relaxed approach. “Keith, in contrast, is much more laid-back and more than happy to let the woman he’s with have her own spotlight without ever feeling threatened,” the source claimed.
