Kermit seemed to have recovered quickly from the break up as he was spotted with Denise, a marketing executive at ABC. Sources say that she's always dropping by the set of "Up Late with Miss Piggy" where the former lovers are still working together.

Prior to the sighting, Miss Piggy was photographed with actor Liam Hemsworth and the two are now being rumored to be dating. Hemsworth posted their endearing photo on his Instagram account. The two haven't confirmed anything about a budding relationship.

Hemsworth will guest on "The Muppets" this fall so some are speculating that the photo is nothing but a professional shot for the star's guesting.

Kermit, however, clarified the rumor by tweeting that they are simply "close friends." He also expressed that he wants his personal life be kept private. But if you're a popular amphibian, you really can't help but get all the media attention. So, Kermit, expect the public to keep an eye on your love life.

Sheesh. I can't believe I already have to do this again... Here is the official statement on my relationship status: pic.twitter.com/gRCyl3xbfz — Kermit the Frog (@KermitTheFrog) September 1, 2015
