Months after finalizing her divorce from Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez is reportedly still holding onto hope for a reconciliation with her ex-husband. An insider told RadarOnline, “In her mind, they’re destined to be together again, plain and simple.”
The source added that Lopez has remained open to rekindling their relationship. “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,” the insider explained.
Fans famously dubbed the couple “Bennifer” during their early 2000s romance. The pair first got engaged in 2002 but ended their relationship before the wedding. Nearly two decades later, they reunited and married in Las Vegas in 2022, reigniting global interest in their love story. However, the marriage lasted only two years, with Lopez filing for divorce in August 2024, which was finalized in early 2025.
Despite the split, Lopez and Affleck have been seen together publicly, sparking speculation about their ongoing connection. They recently attended the New York premiere of Kiss of the Spider Woman, where Affleck served as a producer and Lopez appeared in a leading role. Their joint appearance showcased that, although divorced, they continue to maintain a professional and cordial relationship.
Sources suggest that Lopez’s feelings for Affleck remain strong, and she continues to reflect on the deep bond they once shared. Fans remain hopeful that the “Bennifer” story may have another chapter, as Lopez appears to be holding onto the belief that their relationship may not be over for good.
