Jennifer Lopez claims people try to assume she's dating everyone she spends time with.
However, Guthrie, 54, wasn't satisfied with the duo’s answers.
“Okay, but I'll just say, because I'm me and you know me. That was not an answer,” she quipped.

Inside J.Lo's Rumored Relationships
Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein star together in 'Office Romance.'
Goldstein and Lopez sparked dating rumors earlier this year following their intense connection on the set of Office Romance.
“We had great chemistry to begin with,” Lopez told People in a May 13 interview. “It just grew as we did the film together.”
She added about the Ted Lasso alum, “I expected more of a rough guy, but you get this kind, gentle but also very smart person that is so charming. That was a surprise…I was a huge fan of his from him doing Ted Lasso. Roy Kent, that's one of my favorite characters. I thought he was going to be more like the character, but he was so soft-spoken and sweet and totally different.”
Jennifer Lopez previously gushed over her on-screen chemistry with Brett Goldstein.
An insider further emphasized to OK! that the celebs found something special in one another.
“There was an undeniable chemistry between Jen and Brett on set, and it naturally spilled over off camera,” the source said. “For Jen, it came at a time when she was still recalibrating emotionally after her split from Ben, so the connection offered a welcome sense of lightness and escape,” an insider said. “It gave her a chance to feel wanted and energized again without the weight of expectation – but in her mind, it was never positioned as something that was meant to develop into a serious, long-term relationship.”
Meanwhile, J.Lo and Costner were rumored to be dating after they were spotted hanging out in Aspen, Colo., in December 2024. The pair went shopping together at Kemo Sabe, per paparazzi images.
