Ben Affleck chooses self-reflection and personal growth over romance as he navigates life post-marriage. The 52-year-old Oscar winner and "Batman" star is reportedly not looking to dive into the dating world anytime soon, a source exclusively tells Page Six. "Ben has no interest in jumping into another relationship at the moment," the insider reveals, emphasizing that the actor is "focused on numerous projects he's working on" and is still "adjusting to the single life" following his high-profile split from Jennifer Lopez.
While Lopez, 55, filed for divorce earlier this year—symbolically on the second anniversary of their Georgia wedding—their separation is not yet finalized. The couple initially eloped in Las Vegas on July 17, 2022, before hosting a grand ceremony in Georgia, but their rekindled love story eventually hit a rough patch.
According to the source, Affleck's priority now is clear: "Ben is taking this time to focus on himself, his kids, and his career." With a slate of upcoming projects and a commitment to his role as a father, the actor is embracing a period of introspection and personal development. As fans continue to speculate about Affleck's next chapter, the actor seems content with focusing on his family and his creative endeavors, ensuring he's ready for whatever comes next in his life and career.
Jennifer Lopez opens up about 'resilience'
Lopez has worked hard to keep her personal life out of the public eye, but this year has brought many changes for her. She recently shared her cover story with Entertainment Weekly on social media, highlighting her character's grit and resilience in the post's caption. "When I first learned about the true story behind Unstoppable, I was moved beyond words," she wrote.
"It’s a testament to resilience, grit, and the human spirit. This film is a celebration of the fighters and the dreamers who refuse to give up, no matter the odds."
"It was such an honor playing Judy Robles in this incredible story about her son Anthony Robles. Both Anthony and Judy are real examples and define what it means to be UNSTOPPABLE."
"When I watched the movie, when I watched me, I was like, 'Oh, yeah, I was pretty weak. I kind of don’t want to see that part of me.' But I know that was my growth journey." Judy said Lopez's performance shows her full journey. "People aren’t left with a sense of who I used to be, but who I am now," she said of viewers.
Lopez revealed that she had a lot in common with Robles, including playing the role of a single parent. Lopez shares twins with Marc Anthony. "I've been a single mom at times in my life, and [I’ve asked,] 'Am I enough for them?' And the truth is, all you need is really one good parent to love you," she said.
