Kelis has addressed the rumors that she and Bill Murray are dating.

Kelis has addressed the rumors that she and Bill Murray are in a relationship. She did so while replying to multiple comments on one of her recent Instagram posts, although she kept her remarks fairly vague. The two were first linked in a report from the US Sun, last week.

“Bill got you out by riding his wave lol media is destroying y’all,” one commenter wrote on a post of Kelis at the beach. The singer responded by remarking that everyone "will believe anything but the best part is we are both blessed, rich and happy. So who’s really laughing now that’s funny.”

In earlier comments, she decided against addressing the rumors. When one commenter wrote, “Ma’am would you care to address these Bill Murray allegations?!? Cuz damn! What he doing with all that?!?” Kelis responded, “Lol no babe, I wouldn’t bother at all."

According to the US Sun, Kelis and Murray have been hanging out for weeks. They cited a friend close to the couple who explained that they “met up in the States before, which got people in the industry talking, and now are meeting up in London while they’re both here.” “They’ve clearly hit it off," the insider continued. “They were both seen at the same hotel, and he’s been to watch her perform several times before he went to Mighty Hoopla [in South London].” From there, the source referenced the age gap between the two. “Whatever it is that has brought them together, and however unlikely it seems, they are both single and are having fun despite the fairly big age gap,” the insider insisted. Kelis is 43 while Murray is 72. Check out Kelis' latest IG post here.

Kelis was previously married to Mike Mora from 2014 until his death in 2022. Mora revealed that he had been diagnosed with stage-4 stomach cancer in September of the year before.
