Is Bennifer Back? J Lo and Ben Affleck Spotted Together

A-list celebrities Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck were recently seen together at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Amid their divorce proceedings, people have started wondering—has the on-again-off-again couple reconciled?

Bennifer is undoubtedly one of Hollywood’s most popular couples. They began dating in the early 2000s and have since broken up, married other people, gotten back together, and said their “I dos.” After Affleck left his wife Jennifer Garner to marry another Jennifer, breakup rumors emerged two years into Affleck and Lopez’s marriage.

Several news sites reported that the spouses have been living on their own for weeks. Their mansion in Beverly Hills was also listed for sale. By August, Entertainment Tonight claimed that the couple was waiting for the right opportunity to announce their divorce. 

However, the power couple has always been great at keeping everyone guessing. One month since their divorce proceedings began, Lopez and Affleck were seen at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Pictures of them together showed up online. Captured on September 14, the two seemed to be enjoying a nice chat together. The series of images reveal the two of them spending time with their children. 

Fans are delighted by what looks like a possible reunion between the often controversial pair. One Facebook user commented, “I really hoped that after 20 years and rekindling their love, that they would beat the odds of making this marriage work. Remember, they’re both high-maintenance people. With that in their equation, they need a miracle to allow the give and take of their love for one another.”

“I really want them to figure it out,” said another.

But before you get your hopes up, a source informed gossip publication Page Six that Affleck and Lopez are still headed for divorce. “It was Ben Affleck’s idea to meet there,” the source said. “He wanted to show that they are friendly exes.”

The insider couldn’t resist adding, “Once they were together, he could not keep his hands off.”

Another source explained the outing, saying, “They all came together for a fun lunch so the kids could hang out. [Jennifer is] trying to be friendly with Ben. They are still moving forward with the divorce, though. They are working out financial details amicably.”

“A divorce is never easy, but Jennifer doesn’t want to be selfish about it. The kids always got along and have fun together. It makes her happy seeing the kids happy together. Happy kids are her priority,” the source concluded.
