Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have officially ended their relationship. Originally a couple in the 2000s, they rekindled their romance nearly two decades later. They tied the knot in 2022 but faced difficulties, leading to their separation in mid-2024 and Lopez filing for divorce in August.
Last month, Affleck and Lopez finalized their divorce. Both actors appear to be moving on with new partners. Lopez has been romantically linked to Kevin Costner, while Affleck’s next move seems to be targeting another star from the 2000s.
From J.Lo to…Jessica Alba?
As reported by RadarOnline, Affleck has expressed a long-standing interest in actress Jessica Alba. With Alba recently single after her split from Cash Warren, sources suggest that they might become romantically involved.
An insider confirmed, “Ben’s crush on Jessica has been known for years within her circle. He’s been interested in her for nearly two decades, but they never found themselves in a situation where they were both single… until now.”
Alba, now 43, rose to prominence in the early to mid-2000s, especially after starring in the 2003 film “Honey” and the 2005 adaptation of “Fantastic Four“. Following 16 years of marriage, she and Warren announced their separation last month, although Alba emphasized that they will “always be family” despite their divorce.
This news regarding Affleck and Alba comes shortly after Lopez, 55, made headlines for her fashion choice while presenting the Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album. Meanwhile, Lopez is reportedly considering a $20 million mansion in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, and her budding relationship with Costner remains informal, despite her respect for his role in “Yellowstone“.
However, Affleck’s past relationship is not a concern anymore. The “Gone Girl” actor seems to be taking steps towards a potential romance with Alba, marking what appears to be a suitable moment for their long-discussed relationship to begin.
“They share a deep bond, and the chemistry between them is clear each time they meet,” the source revealed. “With both now unattached and their kids growing up, this moment feels ideal for their relationship to blossom.”
