August 20 2014 9:53 AM

News of Chris Martin and Jennifer Lawrence consciously coupling has sent international tabloids into a spin.

With two of the most talked about splits of the year (Chris and ex wife Gwyneth Paltrow and J-Law with ex Nicholas Hoult), they're hot property as it is. Pair that with A-list careers, juicy exes and their insistence on keeping their private lives actually private, they're the gift that keeps on giving.

Here are five reasons why the public fascination with these two is just beginning:

1. They never talk about their private lives

Several entertainment news outlets have confirmed the romance reports through a number of, presumably, different sources; but neither has confirmed, denied or even acknowledged it.

2. Chris was married to Goop. 'Nuff said

Gwyneth is the actress and self appointed lifestyle guru everyone loves to hate. In the last three days, there have been countless reports that Chris loves Jennifer's laid-back approach in comparison to Goop's overly regimented approach to everyday life.

3. Everybody loves J-Law

Seriously, everybody. Three Oscar nominations by age 24, countless blockbusters under her belt and she is still seen as the most approachable actress in Hollywood...probably ever. She could date Hugh Hefner and people would still love her.

4. They both have zero social media presence

They're keeping us guessing. Neither has a Twitter account and have spoken of their lack of intention of ever changing that. "Everybody was talking yesterday about Twitter and Instagram and Tumblr. It was really confusing me and overwhelming me. I literally started losing my breath," Jen said about her lack of online activity.

5. They both experienced high profile splits

With Chris and Gwyneth's shock separation announcement after 11 years of marriage, the rumour mill went into overdrive as to why. Jennifer also split with her X-Men co-star 'months ago' (seriously, they really haven't talked about it). Now of course, they have both been mentioned as contributing factors behind their respective break-ups - a 'fact' that was left out until their 'romance' was revealed this week.
