Ben Affleck’s ex Ana de Armas makes new romance with Cuban president’s stepson official with kiss
As I delve into the captivating journey of Ana de Armas, a profound sense of admiration and awe fills my heart. Her life story is a testament to the power of resilience, determination, and courage. Born in Cuba, she embarked on an extraordinary odyssey that led her from the sun-kissed shores of Havana to the glamorous world of Hollywood.
In an apparent confirmation of a fresh relationship, I found myself in the spotlight after photos surfaced showing me sharing a kiss with the stepson of Cuba’s President Miguel Díaz-Canel during a lively evening out in Madrid, Spain.
Last week, the 36-year-old celebrity, originally from Cuba, was seen sharing a kiss with Manuel Anido Cuesta following an apparent dinner outing.
It seemed that Ana’s affectionate gesture suggested she was no longer in a relationship with Paul Boukadakis, who is the Vice President of Tinder, as they started dating after Ana parted ways with Ben Affleck.
On their post-dinner walk, Ana and Manuel appeared quite affectionate, and at one point, they were seen intertwining their arms, with Manuel being a consultant for his father.
Ana, who had moved from Cuba to Spain at the age of 18, subsequently ventured out together with her partner, taking their pet dog Salsa for an evening stroll.
During the outing, the actress from Knives Out exuded a stylish air without trying too hard, thanks to her chic white cashmere coat.
Initially, Ana and Manuel were spotted exiting an establishment that appeared to be a restaurant, accompanied by several others.
The group stopped to chat outside the establishment before heading home.
Ana’s bright white overcoat stood out against everyone else’s dark ones, lacking visible buttons.
Yet, the belt matched perfectly, so she fastened it shut, emulating a trench coat style, to keep herself cozy during the cold night.
The attractive brunette enhanced the opulence further by wrapping a Louis Vuitton-patterned golden scarf gracefully around her neck.
Instead of matching her light-toned jacket with black short trousers, she opted for a striking contrast. To further elevate her look, she accessorized with glossy, black patent leather boots that added an element of allure to her overall attire.
Ana adorned herself with a stylish Louis Vuitton handbag in gold, featuring a brown edge to harmonize with her scarf. Her beautiful, dark hair was combed smoothly back, falling gracefully across her shoulders after being parted down the middle.
They seemed to stroll some distance towards home with a few individuals they had dined with previously, and at times, she and Manuel would split up to engage in conversations with different people.
Manuel looked classy in an all-black look featuring a shorter overcoat that only reached his knees.
He paired it with dark pants and a scarf, and he stood tall in a classy set of dark suede boots.
He styled his hair short and sported a short, well-maintained beard.
Following their separation from their group, it seemed as if they continued strolling separately within Madrid. Eventually, they halted to share a tender kiss.
Manuel lowered himself closer to Ana, his hands clutching the lapel of her coat, as their kiss deepened further.
They were so engrossed in their delightful scene, they barely noticed passersby strolling past them on the pavement.
Following their kiss, they scooped up Salsa, Ana’s pet dog, for a quick stretch before wrapping up the evening.
Little is known about their burgeoning romance, as the Blonde star has stayed mum on the subject.
Manuel tends not to draw attention to himself, since he seems to be relatively absent from the social media scene.
However, rumors of their romance appear to have begun around six months ago, in May.
As I recall, at that point in time, Cuban influencer Alexander Otaola shared on his program that Ana and Manuel were romantically involved – as reported by Latin Times.
It was claimed that the Bond girl was seen traveling back to Cuba, where she took a vacation with the president’s stepson.
Previously, there were rumors about her dating Tinder’s Vice President, Paul Boukadakis, yet few details about their relationship surfaced, and neither Paul nor Ana have officially acknowledged its conclusion.
Manuel has Miguel Díaz-Canel as his stepfather, who stands as the primary heir to the leadership positions held by Fidel and Raúl Castro in Cuba.
Fidel Castro held numerous roles within Cuba’s government, but he handed over his positions as President of the State Council of Cuba and President of the Council of Ministers of Cuba to his younger brother Raúl in 2008. In 2011, his brother also took over from him as the First Secretary of the Communist Party of Cuba’s Central Committee, and Fidel Castro passed away in 2016.
In 2018, Miguel assumed the presidency after Raul, who was 93 years old at the time. Later, in 2021, Raul took on the role of leader in Cuba’s Communist Party.
Manuel is born from the first marriage of Lis Cuesta Peraza, who is currently the president’s second spouse.
Although he doesn’t currently hold an official government role within Cuba, he has joined his stepfather on various formal journeys, such as a trip to the Vatican.
The Latin Times reports that during their journey, Díaz-Canel called his stepson “the opposing side,” possibly suggesting a divergence in political views between the two individuals.
Manuel also reportedly has a law degree, though it’s unclear if he currently practices.
It’s a bit unexpected that he’s in a relationship with Ana, given that it seems she distanced herself from Cuba as her career progressed.
Born in Havana to Spanish immigrant parents, this future shining star endured scarcity and limited resources during her childhood due to Cuba’s Special Period, a time that started following the drying up of aid and trading relations with the Soviet Union after its dissolution in 1991.
Ana, who grew up with limited exposure to global cultures in Cuba, honed her acting skills in school. At the age of 18, she was able to move to Spain due to her grandparents’ citizenship.
During the years ranging from around 2005 to 2015, she underwent training in Spain and made appearances on Spanish TV programs and movies.
Back in 2014, she bid farewell to Spain and settled in Los Angeles. She had briefly resided in New York several years prior.
In her initial Hollywood project, titled “Knock Knock” directed by Eli Roth, she collaborated with leading actor Keanu Reeves.
After a notable appearance in War Dogs (2016), I stepped into a significant supporting role that catapulted my career as the holographic love interest of Ryan Gosling’s character in Denis Villeneuve’s film, Blade Runner 2049.
Despite Blade Runner 2049 not meeting commercial expectations, it allowed Ana to return to Cuba and purchase a house there. Subsequently, she reappeared on the screen with a significant role in Rian Johnson’s mystery thriller Knives Out, which featured Daniel Craig as the main star alongside an impressive ensemble cast.
She returned to her home country to shoot French filmmaker Olivier Assayas’ spy thriller Wasp Network, which marked her first time working in Cuba since her departure years earlier.
By 2021, Ana had become a highly sought-after actress, reteaming with Craig in the James Bond film “No Time To Die.” This was followed by the psychological thriller “Deep Water,” released in 2022, where she worked alongside her boyfriend at the time, Ben Affleck.
In the very same year, she starred in the Netflix action-thriller “The Gray Man” and was nominated for an Oscar for her role as the leading actress in the controversial drama “Blonde.” This film offers a fictional portrayal of Marilyn Monroe’s life, inspired by Joyce Carol Oates’ renowned novel bearing the same name.
Ana has just completed filming for Ron Howard’s upcoming survival thriller titled Eden, set to premiere soon, and is now busy with the final stages of production for the John Wick sequel called Ballerina, due for release in 2025.
In September, Ana revealed that she was living ‘off the grid’ in a rural home in Vermont.
Earlier, she parted ways with her residence in Venice, California, because of concerns about privacy, while still maintaining a relationship with Ben Affleck.
After a while, she temporarily resided in New York, but it’s uncertain whether she currently lives permanently in Spain or is merely there as a tourist.
