Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck just can't stay apart. Although they officially said goodbye last summer, the two stars seem to have remained on good termsso much so as to arrange a meeting in view of the Christmas holidays. Is a flashback possible?
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's Christmas meeting
A Christmas of serenity for Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. Having put aside the misunderstandings that led them to say goodbye last summer, the two stars continue to maintain a friendly relationship, as the tabloid explains PageSix. Just in view of the holidays, the Bennifers met at the Soho House in Los Angeles, indulging in a chat for about 30 minutes. “They intend to stay in each other's lives despite no longer being a couple. They still talk and communicate about all matters concerning their kids” an insider told the American magazine.
In fact, it is not the first time that the Bennifers have been spotted together after the divorce: last September they were immortalized in affectionate attitudes during a brunch, which they had attended with their respective children. Jennifer was accompanied by Emme and Maximilian, born in 2008 from her marriage to Marc Anthony; Ben Affleck instead had with him Violet (19 years old), Seraphina (16 years old) and Samuel (12 years old), whom he had with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner.
The Bennifers' farewell
Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from Ben Affleck last August, after only two years of marriage and almost morbid media attention. The actress and singer later spoke about the painful separation to the magazine Interview, calling it a real life lesson: “I understood that you have to learn to be alone. I thought I had mastered it, but I hadn't. And so this summer I said to myself 'I need to go away and be alone'. I had to prove to myself that I could do it. I have no regrets, but that doesn't mean what happened to me it didn't hurt me”.
The diva had also explained that she did not want to throw herself headlong into a new relationship after the end of such an important chapter for her: “I'm not looking for anyone because that's what I've been doing for the last 25-30 years. Being in a relationship doesn't define me. I can't look for my happiness in another person. I have to find it within myself. I thought I was happy, but I was looking for someone to fill my gaps,” Lopez revealed again.
In fact, from August to today, Jennifer's name has not been linked to that of no other manexcept for his famous ex. Ben Affleck, however, has firmly denied the rumors of dating Kick Kennedy, daughter of Robert Kennedy Jr., explaining that he wants to focus on what makes him feel better, namely his three children. In short, the two actors are still single, and their constant sightings raise the hopes of those who, after two engagements that ended badly, are hoping for a third (and definitive) rapprochement.
