However, when Affleck and Lopez were featured on the Jumbotron — they gave fans what they were waiting for — a sweet kiss on the cheek.
Affleck, who is a private man, recently said that he was living a beautiful love story with the diva and added: “I can say that it’s definitely beautiful to me. And, you know, one of the things I really value across all facets of my life now is that it was handled in a way that reflected that.”
He went on to say: “It’s a good story. It’s a great story. And, you know, maybe one day I’ll tell it. I’ll write it all out … and then I’ll light it on fire.”
Lopez has confessed that she hopes to marry the actor one day.
