Jennifer Lopez praised Ben Affleck’s Spanish speaking skills: ‘I get very self-conscious’

Spanish is Affleck’s second language, but still, people get surprised to hear his fluency

Jennifer Lopez praised Ben Affleck’s Spanish speaking skills while promoting her new movie The Mother. Lopez, 53, told Access Hollywood her husband “really loves speaking Spanish.”

“Yeah, really great Spanish,” the singer and actress said. “He spent time in Mexico when he was a kid, and so, he loves the culture, and he loves the people, and he loves speaking Spanish.”

“He learned it then, and he’s kind of kept it up his whole life and really loves speaking Spanish,” she continued.

“I get very self-conscious because I didn’t grow up in Puerto Rico, you know what I mean?” Lopez added. “I speak Spanish, and I know Spanish. I know Spanish well, but I still get self-conscious – not him!”

Spanish is Affleck’s second language, but still, people get surprised to hear his fluency. Recently a video of him speaking Spanish during an interview in Spain went viral on TikTok.
