Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck: He charmingly draws her family to his side

Jennifer’s mother, Guadalupe Rodriguez, 75, recently accompanied Ben to Las Vegas, where she had ample opportunity to play at the casino, one of her favorite hobbies. “Guadalupe loves Ben,” a friend of Jennifer told E News. “She is thrilled to have him back in Jennifer’s life.” And when Jennifer celebrates the 50th birthday of her sister Linda Lopez in the noble restaurant “Nobu” in Malibu, Ben is also there. “They’re inseparable and it’s going really well,” an insider told E News. “She has never been happier and knows that he was always the right one for her.”

Hollywood’s love comeback of the year

After their split in 2004, Ben always held a special place in Jennifer’s heart, which made it a lot easier for him to rekindle the romance 17 years later, a source told The New York Post. “Jennifer never quite got over the breakup at the time, although at the time she felt she had no choice but to cancel the wedding and break off her engagement to him.”

This is how it all started with “Bennifer”

Ben and Jennifer met in 2001 on the set of their joint film “Gigli”. The film was a flop, but the two Hollywood stars fell head over heels in love. The engagement followed the following year. The headlines about the power couple known as “Bennifer” rolled over, but suddenly the planned wedding was canceled just days in advance. “They were so deeply in love, but in the end they discovered that they both wanted very different things,” the insider said. “Jennifer was about that time in her life to settle down and have kids, but Ben didn’t want to give up his bachelorette lifestyle. In the end she got tired of waiting for him to come back. Even if it broke her heart “. Then singer Marc Anthony, 52, crossed her life path. “Marc came three days after I should have been at the altar,” wrote J. Lo in 2014 in her book “True Love”. In 2004, J.Lo married Marc Anthony, while Affleck married Jennifer Garner, 49, in 2005. Both marriages produced children. Today J.Lo is the mother of twins Max and Emme, both 13. Affleck and Garner are parents of Violet, 15, Seraphina, 12, and Samuel, 9.

In April 2021, we were all surprised by the news that Lopez and Affleck had been spotted back together in Los Angeles after J.Lo broke off her two-year engagement to Alex Rodriguez, 45.
