Well, it looks like Gotham’s finest is in for a rough ride! Batman himself, aka Ben Affleck, is not exactly living his best life these days. As many are aware, recent reports reveal that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, who once seemed to be star-struck lovers, are now tangled in a particularly messy divorce. The absence of a prenup did not help the situation.
Recent developments have only added fuel to the fire. As Affleck was recently spotted on a date with Kick Kennedy, which according to the reports has only made things worse for him!
The Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez Divorce Gets Even Messier
The Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez divorce, initially perceived as complicated, has recently revealed just how quickly and dramatically things have deteriorated.
Although their love story seemed to be a two-decade saga culminating in their 2022 marriage, the situation has significantly changed by 2024. According to a recent interview with Heat magazine, an insider close to the couple has disclosed some shocking details about the rapid descent into chaos. The said,
Ben’s big complaint about his marriage was how controlling it was, so you can imagine how upsetting it is that Jen essentially still has control, He’s basically at her mercy –if he doesn’t behave the way she wants, she could make it all that much more miserable for him. That’s the last thing he needs, especially with their kids involved.
When Jen filed the papers, she did it with the intention of getting this divorce done as quickly as possible, but if Kick or someone else appears in Ben’s life, there’s nothing, to stop her from changing tactics. She’s got enough money to drag this on indefinitely. If Ben knows what’s good for him, he’ll keep his dating on ice until he’s divorced.
Reports suggest that a divorce was the last thing Jennifer Lopez wanted from Ben Affleck. She was determined to work things out, but it was Affleck who ultimately walked away, leaving her no option but to file for divorce. But why is Lopez so reportedly distressed and allegedly pushing Affleck to act straight? The answer might lie in the recent rumors involving Kick Kennedy.
Are Kick Kennedy and Ben Affleck Dating?
Just days after news of his split from Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck and Kick Kennedy were suddenly the focus of dating rumors. Kick Kennedy is the daughter of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. with his first wife, Emily Ruth Black. Eyewitnesses reported to Page Six that Affleck had been spotted with Kennedy at the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
However, Affleck’s team quickly stepped in to clarify. Jen Allen, his spokesperson, issued a statement to People, addressing the misinformation stating,
There is no truth to any of it. I don’t know if they even know each other.
TMZ has further doubled down on the claim, revealing that both Ben Affleck and Kick Kennedy are unhappy with the ongoing rumors. While the truth of these statements remains unconfirmed for now, it appears that Affleck and Kennedy are not involved romantically. Only time will tell how this situation will ultimately resolve.
