Ben Affleck has decided to accept some discomfort with the post-divorce plan he implemented with his ex-wife and stepchildren.
Jennifer Lopez and the Oscar winner ended their marriage after just two years. However, because Affleck and Lopez’s children have an unbreakable bond, they will continue to interact.
Despite their eagerness to follow separate paths, Lopez and Affleck have maintained an amicable relationship, meeting to celebrate huge milestones, school events, and holidays for the well-being of their children.
The former exes and their children recently had a family rendezvous at a fancy hotel. This significant event marked a step forward in their post-divorce relationship, where they exchanged Christmas gifts.
Affleck went out of his way to get Lopez a very sentimental present. A source told Page Six: “Ben gifted Jennifer with the book because she’s a fan, plus her Super Bowl bodysuit was inspired by Marlon Brando. The gifts were mostly for each other’s kids, but they did exchange a few small things for each other as well. It was nothing over the top, but more so a gesture to celebrate the holidays. Ben and Jennifer have remained amicable despite the ongoing divorce proceedings.”
Days later, Lopez told her ex-husband an incredible truth — she would move on with her life, flirt, and date other men who were more powerful and with higher status than him.
Lopez’s bold statement has sparked a new wave of gossip and speculation. According to photos obtained by Page Six, Lopez was seen enjoying a night out in Aspen alongside Kevin Costner.
The media outlet shared: “Jennifer Lopez and Kevin Costner are both single and appear ready to mingle. On Friday, the movie stars were spotted hanging out at hotspot Kemo Sabe in Aspen, Colo., at the same time. Lopez, 55, appeared to be having a great time as she was photographed laughing and enjoying a drink. Costner, 69, meanwhile, seemed cool and relaxed as he chatted with other patrons at the renowned clothing store.”
Lopez was seen giving a cheeky look to the photographers standing in front of the store. Earlier that year, Costner had a high-profile and nasty divorce from his wife of 18 years, Christine Baumgartner.
Last month, he was rumored to be dating singer Jewel. However, he shut the rumor down and explained he was single.
The photos of Lopez and Costner have sparked speculation, with the media buzzing about a potential high-power romance that few saw coming.
Others believe it will be devastating for Affleck because it looks like Lopez has upgraded after their nasty divorce.
