The buzz about Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, fondly called “Bennifer,” has been non-stop. As the media relentlessly questions Jennifer about their marriage, she has shown remarkable grace and poise.
During a press event in Mexico City on May 22, promoting her latest film «Atlas,» Jennifer was faced with a question she found inappropriate. An unidentified reporter asked, «What is the truth about these rumors? For the Mexican press, what is the real situation?» Jennifer’s co-star, Simu, quickly intervened, firmly saying, «We’re not doing that. Thank you so much, guys.»
Jennifer maintained her composure, initially laughing off the question. But when the reporter persisted with more awkward inquiries, she looked directly at them and said, “You know better than that.” Simu stepped in again, urging the reporter to change their approach and redirect the conversation.
Despite the uncomfortable moment, Simu praised Jennifer’s commitment and dedication to their film. He emphasized that her influence as a producer was crucial in his and Sterling K. Brown’s involvement, highlighting Jennifer’s passion for representation and diversity, and calling her a true leader.
The media frenzy around Bennifer has been relentless. Sources close to Lopez told The Post that the couple is currently “taking time apart.” Additionally, People magazine quoted an insider saying their marriage “is not in the best place at the moment.”
In another intriguing development, Ben Affleck has been playfully teasing the paparazzi by hiding his ring finger. While running errands in Los Angeles, Ben cleverly concealed his hand in his sweater when photographers tried to capture his left hand. He has been switching his wedding ring between hands and sometimes not wearing it at all, keeping everyone guessing.
Recent reports indicate that Ben has moved out of their marital home and is temporarily staying in a Brentwood rental. There are also rumors that Jennifer is actively searching for new homes, signaling that the couple is dealing with significant marital issues.
Despite the constant speculation and scrutiny, Jennifer and Ben have remained strong. They both deserve privacy and the chance to work through their challenges in their own way. Hopefully, they can find a resolution that brings them both happiness and fulfillment.
