Jennifer Lopez is officially single and ready for a fresh start in the dating world. Just two months after finalizing her divorce from Ben Affleck, the “Hustlers” star is embracing new possibilities in love.
A close source revealed to Page Six that Lopez, 55, is open to dating again. “Jennifer is ready to put herself out there again and hasn’t given up on finding love,” the insider shared. “Her friends have encouraged her to start dating, and she’s definitely open to meeting someone new.”
Unlike her past high-profile relationships, Lopez is considering a different approach. “She’s thinking about dating someone outside of the public eye this time, but she isn’t limiting herself to any specific type,” the source added.
Lopez’s legal status as a single woman was finalized last month. She initially filed for divorce on what would have been her second wedding anniversary, but the paperwork only took effect on February 21, marking the official end of her marriage to Affleck.
Meanwhile, Affleck, 52, seems to be taking a different path. The “Good Will Hunting” actor has been seen spending more time with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, sparking speculation about his personal life.
The two were recently spotted sharing a friendly moment during a family paintball outing with their three children: Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 13.
Despite rumors, insiders clarify that neither Lopez nor Garner—who has been in a relationship with John Miller since 2018—are interested in rekindling anything with Affleck. “Both Jennifers are actually friends and have bonded over co-parenting their kids,” the source stated. “The media often pits women against each other, but that’s not the case here.”
With Lopez moving forward and Affleck reflecting on the past, their high-profile relationships continue to captivate Hollywood. Whether Lopez finds love again soon or enjoys her newfound independence, fans are eager to see what’s next for the global superstar.
