Is This The Most Unexpected Celebrity Couple Of All Time?

Probably not, but it’s definitely up there…

If Instagram is anything to go by — and it usually is — it looks like Jennifer Lopez and Drake are a ‘thing’.

The pair, who've been taking some very coupley pics lately, went to a winter-themed prom night in LA on Thursday December 29, and, according to Us Weekly, were even crowned prom king and queen at the event.

A Drake fan account also posted footage of the pair dancing together and sharing a smooch on the stage, which looks to us like two people who are doing more than just collaborating on some music.

The singers also seem to have confirmed they're an item with a matching coupley Instapic, posted earlier in the week.

They definitely look like a legit couple — all snuggled up, twinning, on the sofa, being all #Hygge.

You'd be forgiven for thinking Drake, 30, was still going out with Rihanna, 28, but the on-again-off-again-on-again friends split a few months ago. To add fuel to the J-Lo and Drake fire, Riri recently unfollowed the 47-year-old singer on Instagram.

It does seem a little suspect — why else would you unfollow a fellow musician, apart from saving yourself from smushy Instagrams of your ex and his new galpal?

Comments on Drake and Jennifer's Instagrams have been positive, with fans alluding to their 17 year age gap saying: 'Age is just a number'. Word.

Others are saying it's a joke but, after 2016, we're not assuming anything anymore.

Rumours started circling earlier this month when Drake attended two of J-Lo’s concerts and hosted an exclusive dinner for her, which they left together, though they tried to brush it off as a work relationship.

It comes five months after Jennifer split from her boyfriend of five years Casper Smart, who she started dating after her split from husband Marc Anthony with whom she has two children, twins Max and Emme.

If Drake and J-Lo are together, it would be understandable if RiRi is more than a little narked. The women are friends and have always been very complimentary about each other’s work, with Jennifer saying she’d love to duet with the Bajan singer.

She also wore denim boots from Rihanna's Manolo Blahnik collection in her Ain't Your Mama music video, which RiRi gave her as a gift with a note saying: 'the baddest...because I know you're gonna wear them better than me!!!'.

Let's hope everything works out juuust fine for the trio.
