Affleck took advantage of this good friendship, and some good female advice, so he could be seen alongside the South American having lunch in Beverly Hills, in the midst of his divorce from Jennifer Lopez.
The 52-year-old Oscar winner, who was recently spotted filming a project in Long Beach, later left with Barroso in the same vehicle.
Almost five months earlier, in August, Lopez filed for divorce from the Good Will Hunting actor on their second wedding anniversary.
Affleck kept it casual, wearing a pair of black trousers and a white button-down shirt that he left undone
He completed the ensemble with a black coat to help keep him warm on the chilly day felt in Southern California.
Luciana looked elegant, but casual, in a black blouse that she tucked into the waist of her tight black trousers.
Luciana flashed a cheerful smile as she entered a building and walked alongside Affleck before grabbing a quick bite to eat.
Her long dark hair fell over her shoulders in light waves and she complemented the look with a pair of dangling earrings and a delicate necklace.

The invaluable support of Matt and Luciana for Ben Affleck
Ben and Luciana had already spent a good time together during Affleck’s separation from JLo.
A few months earlier, in September, the star was seen giving Barroso a kiss on the head as they greeted each other outside his Los Angeles office; in August, Affleck and Damon enjoyed a dinner together alongside Luciana.
Damon and his wife have supported Ben Affleck at all times since the separation from Jennifer Lopez, according to DailyMail.com.
Ben is particularly vulnerable and feels humiliated after his failed marriage to JLo. He broke down in tears and told Matt that he is jealous of him and his lifestyle.
“He told Matt that he has everything he wants – a happy marriage of almost 20 years and children living with him,” the source told the British website.
