Do opposites attract? Not in the case of Jane Krakowski and Mike Lindell.
The “30 Rock” star and MyPillow CEO and Trump supporter say they did not have a secret romance, denying a new report claiming the two were formerly engaged in a nine-month fling.
On Thursday, the Daily Mail reported that Krakowski and Lindell carried on a secret romance that ended last summer during a weekend at the actress’s beach house in the Hamptons.
A friend called their romantic stint “an open secret” in the West Village in New York City, saying the two were frequently spotted together.
“t surprised many of Jane's friends because she's such an icon in the gay community, but here she is dating one of Trump's biggest business backers. I mean he was seen in the West Wing and at Trump rallies and he is probably responsible for half of the revenue of Fox News,” the source told the outlet.
“We'd always joke that Jane had so much money, couldn't she afford her own My Pillow?” the source quipped.
Both Krakowsi and Lindell denied the claims when approached by The Daily Mail.
“I've never met the man,” the “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” actress told the outlet.
Lindell told the publication the same thing, saying he wasn’t even familiar with the star.
“I have never even heard of Jane Krakowski???” he said.
Other sources who spoke to Daily Mail said the alleged relationship was extra befuddling given the clashing political views of Krakowski, an outspoken Obama supporter, and Lindell, a vocal supporter of Trump and most recently of the former president's "Stop the Steal" campaign.
"Jane was a HUGE fan of Obama and her viewpoint, by the nature of her business and the Broadway audience that she plays to (and calls her "boys") certainly speaks democratic," one source said.
Another source said Krakowski "seemed happy and thought he was a good man." The individual also said the dalliance was recent — although the two had known each other for some time — and included gifts from the pillow purveyor to the famous actress.
"He sent flowers to her almost every week and champagne and bottles of different liquor. She said she had known him for about eight years and that they had been friends but then they started a relationship about a year ago," the source said.
