Ben Affleck drives new motorcycle after opening up about Jennifer Lopez divorce: 'There is no scandal'

Ben Affleck is moving forward with confidence, recently taking his new motorcycle for a ride just days after opening up about his divorce from Jennifer Lopez. The actor, who had yet to speak about the failed relationship, addressed rumors surrounding his split following the divorce settlement earlier this year.

The actor was photographed in Los Angeles, taking two new motorcycles for a ride. He was first seen on a red motorcycle driving around his neighborhood while wearing a black jacket, jeans, black sneakers, and a black helmet.

It was reported by TMZ that the star just had three motorbikes delivered to his home over the weekend, and he decided to take them out for a spin, driving safely around his property in LA.

This is not the first the actor is spotted riding, as he already had a customized BMW motorcycle, which was a gift from his ex-girlfriend Ana de Armas, for his 48th birthday in 2020 while they were still together.

Ben reportedly reflected on his relationship with Ana, as revealed by a source in the Daily Mail. "Ben and Ana had such a special and unique relationship because they were holed up together 24/7 during the pandemic," an insider detailed. "They got so close so fast, and it was passionate and real."

Apparently, Ben "wishes he could go back and do it differently, but he can't. It is too late now, but Ben has much respect for Ana. He hopes she finds what she wants and has a family. He thinks she is an incredible woman."

What did he say about Jennifer Lopez?

During his latest interview with GQ, he explained that there was no drama in the divorce, and praised his ex-wife. "There's no scandal, no soap opera, no intrigue,” he told the publication. "It's just a story about people trying to figure out their lives and relationships in ways that we all sort of normally do."

"I love and support this person. I believe in them. They’re great. I want people to see that," he added. “My temperament is a little bit more reserved and private than hers,” he explained.
