Jennifer Lopez and her Office Romance co-star Brett Goldstein have been making the rounds promoting their film, and dodging off-screen romance rumors. This was the case when the two appeared on the TODAY Show and were asked by Savannah Guthrie if they were dating.

After JLo initially gave what Gutherie called a non-answer, she denied the rumors. But an expert is sharing that what the duo didn’t say is telling a different story.

Inbaal Honigman is a celebrity astrologer and body language expert. She has appeared in the media for more than 20 years, and she has offered her expertise and perspectives on current events and popular culture for several outlets, including Big Brother’s Little Brother, Elle Magazine, and talkSPORT radio, to name a few.

Honigman believes Lopez and Goldstein are actually in a relationship now and keeping it under wraps. She noticed a “contradiction” in Lopez’s denial that points to that.

Speaking on behalf of Casino Guru, Honigman told Showbiz Cheat Sheet, “While Jennifer speaks quite convincingly about being rumored to date every co-star she’s ever worked with, she’s shaking her head from side to side, as if refuting her own words. This is a slight indication that she might not be totally truthful when denying dating rumours with Brett. His excessive nervousness compared with Jen’s is an indication that he might like her more than she likes him. There’s more at stake for him, but it seems as if they’re both keeping the same secret.

“It is Brett who expresses discomfort at a higher level, and he’s the one who may end up exposing the truth that the pair are, in fact, romantically involved. When he leans forward to support Jennifer’s point, Brett inexplicably shakes his whole arm away from him. This unintentional move, an arm shake, could signify anxiety or discomfort, and it indicates that he suddenly feels uneasy with this topic of conversation.”

The expert explained, “This odd arm shake is a displacement activity, as if trying to send the awkward topic away. He’s not as skilled at deflecting media intrusion as JLo is, and therefore, his body responds with stress to having to keep a secret relationship under wraps. Jennifer’s body language is calmer, even though she’s keeping the same secret, simply because to her, it is second nature.”

According to Honigman, “The biggest sign that a special bond is forming between Lopez and Goldstein is their perfect matching smiles. As they both smile brightly at Guthrie, their facial expressions are absolutely identical. They both tilt their heads at the same angle, which signifies empathy. Both flash their teeth in identical reassuring smiles, even their shoulders are lowered in the same way, showing how at ease they are with one another.

“When two people reflect each other’s body language at that level, they’re likely in a relationship together, or are at least the very best of friends. This mirroring behaviour is how they signal to each other that they want to be aligned together, and it is evident to anyone searching for clues.”

Showbiz Cheat Sheet acknowledges that conditions and cultures can impact body language and is sensitive to all backgrounds.
