Meryl Streep and Martin Short have been dating for over a year, but they’ve managed to keep their relationship out of the public eye despite their highly scrutinized lives.
Although the couple doesn’t comment on their relationship, a source close to them shared a rare insight into how they “work so well together.”
The insider noted that “it’s like each of them is exactly what the other person needs at this stage in life. It all feels incredibly effortless between them. There’s no friction, no drama, nothing complicated. They really enjoy being together and it just flows naturally.”
They noticed that the couple has this “ease” between them, which is really rare, in conversation with Page six.
The The Devil Wears Prada Star and Short have been through life’s ups and downs together, including the recent death of the actor’s daughter Katherine, and they’ve supported each other through them.
“Everyone should be so lucky to find someone who fits into their lives the way they do each other’s. They make each other laugh, they support each other, and there’s just a calmness to their relationship. It never feels forced,” the source added.
While the relationship came as a surprise to the couple, “Meryl couldn’t help but fall for Martin. He’s a gentleman, he makes her laugh and is an all-around positive person. She loves being around him,” an insider told the outlet at the time.
The couple was recently spotted on an intimate dinner date in London, eating together with no shutterbugs around.
