Jennifer Lopez Just Dropped A Major Bombshell About Her Relationship With Ben Affleck—Wow!
February 7, 2022 by Maria Pierides
Jennifer Lopez is known to be pretty private about her personal life, so we were quite taken aback when we read her interview for the February 14th issue of People magazine – for which she was the cover star – as she spilled so many secrets about her rekindled relationship with Ben Affleck! The 52-year-old Marry Me actress (who seems to be ageing in reverse!) opened up about how “lucky” she felt to be given a “second chance” with the 49-year-old Gone Girl actor, and we have to admit that we love how candid and dare we even say vulnerable she was in the interview.
“I feel so lucky and happy and proud to be with him,” J-Lo gushed, of course in reference to Affleck. The “On My Way” singer also compared their 2002-2004 relationship with their current one, saying that things are different this time because they are more mature, and perhaps aren’t letting the unwanted media attention affect them in a negative way. “Before we kind of put our relationship out there and we were naïve and it got a little trampled,” she continued.
“We both were like, ‘Wow, we’re so happy and we don’t want any of that to come into play again.’ We’re older now, we’re smarter, we have more experience, we’re at different places in our lives, we have kids now, and we have to be very conscious of those things. We’re so protective because it is such a beautiful time for all of us.”
