    Jennifer Lopez takes strong stance after watching Ben Affleck spend time with Jennifer Garner

    Sometimes, the fairytale ending is a sham. For Jennifer Lopez, that much has been very true in her romantic life. That was accentuated following her divorce from Ben Affleck. What was once the perfect love story, turned into a nightmare. Ultimately, the two moved on, but they remain in each others’ lives in one way or another.

    Given their kids’ strong relationship and their large presence in Hollywood, it’s hard for the two to completely block each other out. But if recent reports are to be believed, Lopez is trying her best to do so. One reason she so desperately wants to move on? Affleck’s renewed bond with ex-wife Jennifer Garner. The two have been spotted together frequently since the divorce, which has even caused some friction with Garner’s current boyfriend, John Miller.

    Jennifer Lopez is “ready” to date again after divorce

    Since Affleck has completely put Lopez in the rearview mirror, the singer and actress is ready to do the same. According to a source with Page Six, she’s preparing to begin dating again.

    “Jennifer is ready to put herself out there again and she hasn’t given up on finding love,” the insider shared. “Her friends have encouraged her to date and she’s definitely open to meeting someone new.” “Jennifer is considering dating somebody who isn’t in the public eye this time around but she’s not limiting herself to any particular type,” the insider added.

    It sounds like not only does Lopez want to find a new romance, but potentially one that’s outside the box. That may be the best move considering she hasn’t had a lot of success dating celebrities.

  • Jennifer Lopez is still not over Ben Affleck: She is ready to stay single 'forever'

    Jennifer Lopez is still not over Ben Affleck: She is ready to stay single 'forever'

    Jennifer Lopez thought this was it — and who could blame her? The actress had found her way back to Ben Affleck, nearly two decades after their widely-publicized romance had ended, and the pair appeared to have successfully rekindled their love for one another amid a surprise, storybook 2022 marriage.

    But marital bliss for Affleck and Lopez proved short-lived. Last April, Affleck moved out of the $60 million Beverly Hills mansion he shared with Lopez, and J.Lo filed for divorce in August; the two film stars finalized their separation in January, and though just a couple of months have passed, the parties appear to be dealing with the breakup in starkly different ways.

    Lopez still “fuming” over Affleck-Garner rumors

    While Affleck has been spending loads of time around his first ex-wife, Jennifer Garner — sparking rumors that they will eventually reunite — Lopez has been comparatively struggling, according to an exclusive report from Radar Online.

    “Jen is struggling to move on from her relationship with Ben,” an insider revealed. “She is eager to date again, but it seems that her lofty expectations and lingering feelings for her ex-husband may be holding her back. She’s also such a diva it is hard for any man to get close to her ideals.”

    Most recently, Lopez has been tied romantically to actors Kevin Costner and Brett Goldstein, but the “Let’s Get Loud” singer remains unattached, according to the insider. The 55-year-old would like to date again, but her exacting standards and an inability to move past Affleck are among the factors inhibiting her progress.

    “Jen genuinely wants to meet someone new but tends to find faults with every guy she encounters. Despite interest from a variety of suitors, including through her agent, she has been on several low-key dates — but has been unable to feel a connection,” the insider continued. “Friends say she romantically invested in the idea that she and Affleck were soulmates, making it tough for her to let go of that notion.”

    Despite her many successes in film and music over the past few decades, Lopez seems to remain unfulfilled personally after her fourth marriage ended in another divorce. The healing process affects each person differently, and it remains to be seen how Lopez overcomes this post-Affleck challenge.

  • Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein Spotted Together Backstage With the Cast of Broadway's “Oh, Mary!”

    Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein Spotted Together Backstage With the Cast of Broadway's “Oh, Mary!”

    Pop star Jennifer Lopez and British actor Brett Goldstein were spotted together at an event following a Broadway show, and speculation was rife. Although it is not known for certain if it was a date, the pair were seen enjoying the company of the cast of the play “Oh, Mary!”, in New York.

    Sunday night was full of smiles and funny moments, with the 55-year-old actress looking elegant in a cream blazer and her hair partially up, as she posed for the cameras alongside other big stars such as Meryl Streep and Martin Short

    The 44-year-old opted for a darker look, staying to the side but still present in the photos.

    Are they a couple or not?

    Interestingly, JLo and Brett reportedly arrived at the event together, with no other companions or entourage, which has led many to think that there could be something more between them, although at the moment everything is still uncertain.

    What we do know is that they are both working together on a new project, the romantic comedy “Office Romance”.

    The pop diva and Goldstein have just begun filming this movie in New Jersey, marking an important milestone in their careers. This collaboration comes after the British actor expressed in his podcast that he was completely in love with Jennifer, and that it was she who chose him to star in this film

    “She’s an amazing star,” Goldstein said of his co-star, something that has certainly raised expectations for this romantic comedy.

    “I’m so excited to work with someone as talented as Brett,” JLo said in a recent interview, and the mutual admiration between the two is evident

    Goldstein himself did not hesitate to openly praise her in 2019, when he spoke about her role in “Hustlers”, a film where Jennifer plays a stripper.

    In his podcast, Brett highlighted how “sexy” JLo was in that movie and did not hesitate to say, “I love her!”

    For her part, Jennifer Lopez has had a somewhat difficult start to the year, and this project with Goldstein seems to be just what she needed to reboot. According to sources close to her, working with such a talented and attractive actor gives her a new lease of life

    “He’s an incredible actor, very talented, not only acting, but also writing scripts,” the source said, adding that Jennifer sees Brett as a younger version of her ex-husband, Ben Affleck, but “smarter and better looking.”

    Meanwhile, fans of both cannot contain their excitement at the news that they will finally see Jennifer and Brett together on screen

    Many users on Twitter and Reddit celebrated the fact that Goldstein, who has confessed to being a big fan of the “This Is Me… Now” singer, is working with her on this new project.

    “Finally, the duo we’ve all been waiting for!” wrote one of his most loyal followers on Twitter.

    This film comes at a key time for Jennifer, who recently split from Ben Affleck, but it doesn’t seem that her heart is completely available.

    As for Brett, his love life has also been a topic of conversation. Although he was in a relationship with comedian Beth Rylance until 2022, it seems that he is now completely focused on his career.

  • Jennifer Lopez espouses a bold and daring look in public as she moves past Ben Affleck

    Jennifer Lopez espouses a bold and daring look in public as she moves past Ben Affleck

    Jennifer Lopez‘s life has changed dramatically in the past nine months. Her marriage to fellow acting star Ben Affleck dissolved amid the release of the Affleck-produced sports biopic “Unstoppable” (in which she stars) and the premiere of “Kiss of the Spider Woman“, Lopez‘s first-ever movie musical.

    While Lopez has been linked romantically to Kevin Costner in recent weeks, the 55-year-old doesn’t have love on the brain right now as she scales new terrain professionally. As she continues to process the disintegration of her “dream marriage” to Affleck, Lopez is finding daring new ways to express herself in a public forum.

    Lopez sighted sans makeup

    During a Valentine’s Day outing, Lopez was spotted riding in a car in Santa Monica, California with no makeup on — and in full sight of paparazzi cameras. It was a bold move from Lopez, whose fashion choices have literally broken the Internet before.

    Lopez recently courted controversy for her support of Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, preferring the former vice president to a second Donald Trump term; Trump‘s victory thrust Lopez into an unwelcome spotlight and fierce criticism from conservative commentator Megyn Kelly.

    But Lopez has been able to rely on her decades in the limelight to move past the backlash gracefully; she stunned as a presenter at the 67th Grammy Awards and has agreed to join the cast of the upcoming Netflix romantic comedy “Office Romance“.

  • Ben Affleck greeted with a concerning welcome upon returning home

    Ben Affleck greeted with a concerning welcome upon returning home

    Ben Affleck‘s Brentwood home was unexpectedly visited by military personnel and law enforcement on Thursday, as the FBI and local police investigated a potential link between a drone strike and the ongoing Palisades fire.

    The authorities were reportedly searching for security footage to determine the source of the drone that struck an aircraft assisting in firefighting efforts. Despite the heavy presence of National Guard members and law enforcement, Affleck appeared unbothered, having previously interacted with police but not engaging with the soldiers outside his property.

    Investigating the drone incident

    The Palisades fire, which began on January 7, continues to ravage the area, claiming the lives of at least 27 people, with over 12,000 buildings destroyed. The fire, now 31 percent contained, has been fueled by high winds, although those conditions have recently eased. The investigation into the drone strike is a serious matter, as flying drones in firefighting zones is a federal crime that could lead to up to a year in prison or a fine of 75,000 dollars.

    While the authorities work to identify those responsible, firefighting efforts continue, with support from Canadian air tankers and local emergency responders. The quickly damaged airplane has been repaired and resumed its role in combating the flames, which have consumed 60 square miles of land.

    While Affleck‘s home and that of his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, have thus far avoided damage, the former couple is actively involved in relief efforts for those affected by the fire. Affleck was seen rushing to Garner‘s home to help ensure the safety of their children as the fire approached.

    Garner, in her role as an ambassador for Save The Children, has been providing trauma-informed care to children impacted by the disaster. She is working with Project: Camp to provide emotional support to kids, offering them therapeutic play to help them process the trauma.

    “Everyone is just trying to give children a little bit of joy and normalcy,” she shared.

  • Jennifer Lopez encouraged to take 'next step' in romance with Hollywood titan amid Ben Affleck split

    Jennifer Lopez encouraged to take 'next step' in romance with Hollywood titan amid Ben Affleck split

    Jennifer Lopez is a “free woman”. The powerhouse singer/actress has only just finalized her separation from Ben Affleck, but rumors and speculation have pointed toward a new romance in the offing for J.Lo.

    A recent vacation to winter hotspot Aspen, Colorado saw Lopez rub shoulders with more of the rich and famous — not that Lopez is hurting in that sense in spite of her recent divorce from “Argo” star Affleck. Lopez’s net worth has been estimated at roughly $400 million, and for her next romance, she will be looking for more the perks and “finer things” offered to her when she dated Drake and Alex Rodriguez.

    Will Lopez hard-launch her next relationship?

    In recent weeks, Lopez has been linked strongly with decorated actor and Hollywood titan Kevin Costner, whose film credits include “The Untouchables“, “Field of Dreams“, “Dances with Wolves“, and the planned “Horizon” series of Western films. Costner, who turns 70 years old this week, was spotted around Lopez, 55, in Aspen last month — and J.Lo’s friends are reportedly encouraging her to pursue a relationship.

    “J.Lo expressed her love of (the TV show) ‘Yellowstone’, as well as her disappointment over Kevin‘s departure, and he was hugely flattered,” an insider revealed of Lopez’s first meeting with Costner, two days after Christmas. “She was quick to let him know she adores ‘Horizon’, too, which went a long way to stroke his ego.”

    Though Lopez has just seen her fourth marriage crumble, she has always seemed comfortable existing amidst tabloid speculation and her popularity with the paparazzi. And the report that Lopez‘s friends are encouraging her to take things to the “next level” will surely serve as a shot in the arm for the “Let’s Get Loud” singer.

    “Timing is everything, so there’s certainly a chance these two could make a go of it,” the insider told Life and Style of a potential romance between Lopez and Costner.

    Ben Affleck spotted hugging his daughter as fires continue to rage in SoCal

    The last few months have been a nightmare for Ben Affleck, his breakup with Jennifer Lopez was the beginning of a rough patch in his life. But it seems he has finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel.

    Ben was spotted hugging his 19-year-old daughter Violet outside his Brentwood home in Los Angeles. The actor looked very emotional with very happy gestures. Jennifer Garner’s daughter was quiet during this brief time with her father and wore a mask due to the fumes and particles in the air from the fires.

    Surely the 52-year-old actor needed that hug from his daughter. It went viral on social networks because he looked very devastated and sad. We will see if this reunion in a complex situation for Los Angeles will help him get out of the bad streak he is going through.

    Things are not going well for Jennifer Garnet either

    Jennifer’s Palisades home survived, but… it’s not all good news, as the actress confessed in an interview with MSNBC that she’s lost valuable friendships:

    “I lost a friend, and it’s a very delicate thing for our community, so I don’t think we should talk about it yet,”.

    “My heart bleeds for my friends. I mean, I can think of 100 families and there are 5,000 homes lost. I can write a list of 100 friends who lost their homes without even thinking about it”, she said, devastated.

    He even pointed out that he feels guilty about these terrible events for his friends: “I almost feel guilty walking around my house. Do you know what I can do? How can I help? What can I offer? What can I offer with these hands and these walls and the security that I have? I think we all want to use our hands in some way to be of service”, finalized.

    How is Jennifer Lopez doing?

    According to media reports in Los Angeles, JLO has canceled all of her scheduled appearances due to the wildfires that have affected a large area of the region.

    This apparently includes her media appearances to promote her movie ‘Unstoppable‘, which will be released on Amazon next Friday.

    The 55-year-old singer prefers to spend her time helping the community during this difficult time, sources say. For now, it is unknown if she will take a break from her work to promote her project or if it will be canceled for good.

    By the way, it is said that JLO contacted Ben Affleck when she found out that her house was in danger and was evacuated from the area. The relationship between the two is still in good terms and they were in contact in the face of these fires that burned many areas of Los Angeles.

  • Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck end legal battle: details of their divorce settlement

    Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck end legal battle: details of their divorce settlement

    Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have officially reached a settlement in their divorce, marking the end of their high-profile marriage just five months after Lopez filed to dissolve their two-year union.

    The couple, affectionately known as Bennifer, has agreed to divide their assets without spousal support, maintaining the goodwill that characterized much of their rekindled romance.

    Lopez, 55, and Affleck, 52, came to an agreement that allows each of them to retain the individual wealth they acquired during their marriage.

    Notably, the $61 million Beverly Hills mansion they purchased together remains on the market, with the terms of its sale kept confidential. As part of the settlement, Lopez will also revert to her maiden name, officially dropping “Affleck.”

    While their divorce won’t be legally finalized until February 20, the settlement marks a significant milestone in what could have been a contentious process.

    Notably, the pair did not sign a prenuptial agreement before tying the knot, leaving their substantial assets and earnings from the past two years potentially up for negotiation. However, both sides worked amicably to avoid any major disputes.

    Lopez cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the divorce when she filed on August 20, 2024, the same date as their second wedding anniversary. Interestingly, she listed their date of separation as April 26, 2024, fueling speculation that the couple had been estranged for months.

    A Complex and Public Journey

    The dissolution of Bennifer 2.0 brings an end to one of Hollywood’s most captivating modern love stories.

    The two first dated in the early 2000s after meeting on the set of Gigli but called off their engagement in 2004. Nearly two decades later, they rekindled their romance, much to the delight of their fans, and married in 2022.

    Despite their separation, Lopez and Affleck have continued to co-parent their respective children and maintain a professional relationship. The former couple collaborated on the production of Unstoppable, a film based on the inspiring true story of wrestler Anthony Robles.

    Lopez has also addressed her divorce publicly, reflecting on the challenges of navigating personal heartbreak in the public eye. In an interview, she remarked, “I know I’m a good person. I know I’m a good mom. Some people just want to hate you to hate you, and none of that really matters.”

    While their marriage has come to an end, both Lopez and Affleck remain committed to their families and careers.

    Lopez shares 16-year-old twins Emme and Max with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, while Affleck co-parents his three children-Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel-with ex-wife Jennifer Garner.

    As they move forward separately, Bennifer 2.0 remains a chapter that captivated the world, leaving a legacy of love, resilience, and the complexities of life under the spotlight.

  • Jennifer Lopez flees to Aspen to get through her first Christmas without Ben Affleck

    Jennifer Lopez flees to Aspen to get through her first Christmas without Ben Affleck

    Jennifer Lopez was seen stepping out in Aspen on Christmas Day to enjoy a meal at the White House Tavern. The 55-year-old singer looked stunning as she bundled up in a stylish black shearling-lined parka with a fur hood, perfectly suited for the snowy weather.

    The famous signer, who had exchanged Christmas gifts with her ex-husband Ben Affleck a couple of days earlier, styled her light brown hair with sun-kissed blonde highlights in a bouncy blowout.

    She completed her chic Christmas look with a small black Dior purse and her signature glam makeup-sultry smoky eyes, warm blush, and a nude pink pout.

    A joyful holiday despite divorce

    This year marked Lopez’s first Christmas since filing for divorce from Ben Affleck over the summer. Despite their separation, the former couple reunited in Los Angeles for an early Christmas celebration with their families. They were spotted having lunch at Soho House in Hollywood and reportedly exchanged gifts earlier in the week.

    Lopez and Affleck, who share a blended family, have made it clear that they intend to remain involved in each other’s lives for the sake of their children. Affleck, who shares three children with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner, has been supportive of this approach. Meanwhile, Lopez shares 16-year-old twins Emme and Max with her ex-husband Marc Anthony.

    Earlier this month, Lopez and Affleck were seen together with Garner at their children’s school, where they came to support Fin and Emme in their school play.

    Over the weekend, Lopez spoke about how she deals with hardships, particularly in light of her divorce from Affleck. In a video interview with British Vogue published on Friday, she shared her perspective on overcoming challenges.

    “I think the way I overcome things is not by thinking of them as happening to me,” she said.

    “When I think of things that way and stay in a kind of a more positive mindset about it, it’s easier to kind of embrace it for the lesson that it is.

    “What am I supposed to learn here? There are no coincidences. This is not happening, you know, just randomly. It’s happening for a reason.”
