Bennifer’s back: here’s why we hope Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck really are back together and dating again
- Their Hollywood romance was famously sealed in 2003 by a US$2.5 million pink solitaire diamond ring – but there would be no wedding and they split a year later
- After his divorce from Jennifer Garner and her parting from ex-baseball player Alex Rodriguez, have Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez reignited their old spark?
“They are friends. They have always been friends, and they have seen each other through the years,” a source told People after the two were spotted together recently, sparking reconciliation rumours.
The former fiancés were hanging out together around Big Sky, Montana, reports said on Monday. “[Jennifer] spent several days with Ben out of town,” a source told People magazine. “They have a strong connection. It’s all been quick and intense, but Jennifer is happy.”
The star-powered duo was spotted driving together in Big Sky before they returned to Los Angeles on Saturday on a private jet, the sources said.
They met back in 2002 on the set of Gigli, playing gangsters who fall in love while attempting to kidnap a powerful federal prosecutor’s psychologically challenged younger brother. Critics, claiming a lack of chemistry between Affleck and Lopez, panned the pic.
