Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds made their first public appearances since the lawsuit battle against Justin Baldoni, and other popular names like exes Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson attended the celebratory night of jokes and lots of fun.
Amy Schumer took the occasion to hint at Meryl Streep and Martin Short’s ongoing romance. The red carpet happened on February 16, 2025, but the Homecoming Concert took place on February 14, on Valentine’s Day, and she was seated with Martin and Meryl. Here’s what she shared about it.

“I think that the tea is, I think Marty might be off the market. That’s what I’m seeing. I don’t know,” the comedian said and added, “Maybe by just like the greatest actor of our time, I don’t know,” referring to Meryl, who is known for her iconic career and performances. “That was a very fun seat to be seated in,” she concluded about the topic as she attended the event in New York.
Even though the two haven’t officially confirmed their relationship, Meryl and Martin have been spotted holding hands, and fans adore their pairing. The two starred in Only Murders in the Building seasons 3 and 4 together and even got married onscreen in the mystery comedy series.
