Hollywood legend Bill Murray, 72, ‘dating’ Milkshake singer Kelis, 43

Hollywood actor Bill Murray and Milkshake singer Kelis have sparked rumours of a relationship after being spotted together several times in the UK.

The Groundhog Day star, 72, has been spotted watching the R&B hitmaker, 43, at her London shows, including at the Mighty Hoopla festival in Brockwell Park, south London, last weekend.

He was pictured in the crowd during Kelis’s set and the pair posed for a photograph with others backstage.

Murray is reportedly in the capital to film a sequel to the Ghostbusters franchise, which will see him reprise his role as Peter Venkman alongside many of the original cast members.

The Sun was the first to report on his supposed relationship with Kelis, who is performing a string of European dates including Glastonbury festival later this month.

Sources told the outlet the two have been “getting close for a while” and had “clearly hit it off” after meeting previously in the US.

Kelis’ second husband Mike Mora died in March 2022, while Murray’s estranged wife Jennifer Butler died in 2021.

A friend reportedly told The Sun: “They were both seen at the same hotel, and he’s been to watch her perform several times before he went to Mighty Hoopla.”

Representatives for Murray and Kelis have been approached for comment.
