Is Naomi Watts secretly dating Liam Neeson?

There’s a delightful rumor going around that Liam Neeson and Naomi Watts are dating, and I’ve never wanted anything more in my life.

The story comes from The National Enquirer, which isn’t the greatest or most reliable outlet, but a source says that they have a lot in common beyond the movie business. “Naomi and Liam are both single parents to two boys and they’re both ex-pats living in New York.” That’s enough for me!

Watts, 48, split from her long-term partner, Liev Schreiber late last year. It was a bummer. Neeson, 64, was married to Natasha Richardson until her untimely, tragic death in 2009.

A source has already denied the romance to Gossip Cop, saying “There is no ‘dating’ relationship here,” but let’s not allow a simple denial from a “trusted source” to kill our dreams. Right?
