Jennifer Lopez is reportedly still holding on to the hope of a future with her former husband Ben Affleck, despite their split and highly publicized divorce in 2024. According to a new report from RadarOnline.com, the singer and actress is actively exploring ways to reconnect with Affleck as she reflects on their long and complicated history.
Lopez and Affleck, famously known as “Bennifer”, first got engaged in the early 2000s but called off their wedding before ultimately parting ways. They reunited years later and married in 2022, only to file for divorce two years into their turbulent marriage.
Despite their separation, the pair surprised fans earlier this year when they reunited in New York City to promote their film “Kiss of the Spider Woman.” Witnesses described their interaction as unexpectedly warm and tender, sparking renewed speculation about their lingering feelings for one another.
According to the outlet, Lopez, now 56, grew emotional and affectionate during their red carpet reunion — and Affleck appeared to reciprocate with flirtatious energy. The encounter reportedly reignited Lopez’s hopes for reconciliation.
A source told the publication that Lopez “had a wonderful time with Ben and says he’s as sexy and wonderful as ever,” adding that she has been quietly planning a path that could bring them back together.
“In her mind, they’re destined to be together again, plain and simple,” the insider claimed.
The source concluded, “She’s believed that all along, and now she’s even more convinced that it’s a case of when, not if, it’s going to happen.”
As speculation grows, fans continue to watch closely to see whether Lopez and Affleck’s decades-long love story may get yet another chapter.
