Chester Bennington’s widow Talinda Bennington sparked romance rumors with The Script’s Glen Power on Friday as they returned from a trip to Mexico together – six years after the Linkin Park singer’s suicide.
Talinda, 47, who was married to Chester from 2005 until his death aged 41 in 2017 – cut a casual figure as she strolled with the drummer, 45, as they landed in Los Angeles.
Talinda – who was briefly wed to second husband Michael Friedman from 2020-2021 – wore a white hoodie, tan leggings and sneakers.
Irish star Glen looked cool in a black leather jacket, hoodie and jeans.

Chester was found dead in his home in Palos Verdes near Los Angeles shortly before 9am on Thursday, July 20, 2017.
Law enforcement officials say Bennington hanged himself from a door, in a similar manner to friend Chris Cornell, in his bedroom and he was home alone at the time, according to TMZ. He was found upstairs by his housekeeper.
After news of his shock death emerged, friends said that while they never suspected he’d kill himself, Bennington was ‘never the same’ after the death of his close friend Chris Cornell.
His apparent suicide coincided with Cornell’s birthday. The Soundgarden rocker killed himself in May of that year by hanging.
‘Chester and Chris were so close, and he was never the same after Chris’s death,’ the friend told Radar.
The friend of Bennington’s also noted that Cornell’s death deeply affected Bennington, who also struggled with ‘addiction issues’.
‘But everyone thought that he had it licked. He seemed to be at a good place in his life. It is just so tragic and there are no words,’ the friend told Radar.
His bandmates were said to be blindsided by Chester’s suicide with sources telling TMZ they had plans to attend a photo shoot in Hollywood later on Thursday.

One Linkin Park band member went to pick him up on Thursday morning but arrived to find police already at his home.
The singer had a history of drug and alcohol abuse. He is survived by his six children from two relationships.
Linkin Park has remained inactive since an October 2017 tribute concert called Linkin Park and Friends: Celebrate Life in Honor of Chester Bennington, that drew more than 17,000 people to the Hollywood Bowl.
Linkin Park achieved huge commercial and critical success beginning in the early 2000s with hits such as One Step Closer, In the End and Crawling, the latter of which earned the band a Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance in 2002.
The band would go on to capture another Grammy in 2006 for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for Numb/Encore, a collaboration with Jay-Z.
