Ben Affleck Reveals Dating Plans After Jennifer Lopez Break-up

BBG News

In their second attempt at romance, it bore the splendor of a classic Hollywood love story, yet the outcome proved more like a dreadful nightmare for Ben Affleck.

In 2021, the famous actor, aged 52, revived his relationship with Jennifer Lopez, who is also 55. This sparked joy among fans as it was almost two decades since they ended their engagement.

Four years from now, the pair who celebrated their love twice in 2022, having already gone through a divorce settlement, are set to formally conclude their brief union today.

Nevertheless, even though he was drained following the collapse of his unsuccessful relationship, Affleck is cautiously venturing into dating once more, finding encouragement from his loved ones and his sobriety network.

According to our source, the burden has been removed from him, making him prepared to start dating once more. If the ideal partner appears, he’s all set to give love a try. This information was shared with us exclusively by DailyMail.com.

I’m really feeling for him right now, as I can see this situation is weighing heavily on him. He’s prioritizing time with his loved ones and his support group to maintain his sobriety.

‘He’s not been left fragile so much as exhausted by it all.’

It became known that the singer and Academy Award-winning filmmaker have been rekindling their relationship, following Jennifer Lopez’s separation from ex-MLB player Alex Rodriguez in 2021.

In the early 2000s, their two-year long relationship received a lot of media attention, making it challenging for them to endure the constant gaze that came with it.

They announced on Instagram in July 2021 that they would attempt it again, and subsequently made their comeback on the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival.

On July 16, 2022, they took their vows at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas. A month later, they repeated the ceremony in a grand, celebrity-filled wedding on August 20, 2022, at Affleck’s estate in Georgia.

Two years from now, on the same day, I will have officially filed for divorce, marking our separation that occurred on April 26, 2024.

In January, Lopez submitted papers to the Los Angeles Superior Court, seeking a judge’s approval to officially end the relationship.

They resolved their divorce using mediation, assisted by celebrity attorney Laura Wasser. As a result, each party will retain the assets they separately accumulated throughout their marriage.

Documents also show Lopez has chosen to drop Affleck as her last name. 

Despite an amicable split, Affleck will not remain close to Lopez like he did Garner.

According to the source, it’s unlikely that you’ll find them socializing or enjoying post-relationship meals together. The relationship between him and Jennifer Garner remains much closer than what he has with her.

Affleck and Garner were together for 13 years before their separation in 2018 which ended in a divorce. They share three children: Violet (age 19), Fin (age 16), and Samuel (age 12).

When the filmmaker leaves, he can count on the complete backing of his former spouse, who served as a ‘relationship advisor’ during the difficult period when his marriage to Lopez was falling apart.

The source mentioned that Jen has consistently backed any endeavor that brings joy to Ben, including his relationship with JLo. This was the case even though she may have had conflicting emotions privately, as long as it brought happiness and well-being to Ben.

Earlier reports by DailyMail.com revealed that Affleck faced a challenging aftermath following their separation, emphasizing to him the crucial importance of always safeguarding his sobriety.

According to a source, Ben no longer holds back from pursuing relationships and now feels prepared to begin dating once more, as stated in October.

Ben prefers dating individuals who are either abstinent or in the process of recovery. The last two years have been challenging for him, but as he works towards healing, one fact remains undeniable: his commitment to recovery takes priority over anything else. He won’t risk his sobriety in any way.

The performer reportedly took steps to ensure that Lopez wasn’t brought up in conversation, even going so far as setting up a screen on his mobile device to prevent any articles concerning them breaking up from appearing.

It’s been said that Garner has decided to maintain a professional relationship with the actress-singer, limiting their interactions only to matters concerning the grandchildren they share within their broader family circle.

Lopez is the mom of 16-year-old twins, Max and Emme, who she had during her marriage with Marc Anthony that spanned from 2004 to 2014. (19 words)

Lopez has been mother to Max and Emme, 16-year-old twins, since her marriage to Marc Anthony, which ran from 2004 to 2014. (23 words)

According to a different source, DailyMail.com reported in November that Jen has decided she doesn’t want to interact with JLo except regarding their children.

Her companions believe it wasn’t wise for her to become so deeply engrossed in aiding Jennifer Lopez with mending her marriage to Ben.
