Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez split

Bennifer is back? Jennifer Lopez, 51, has been hanging out with Ben Affleck, 48, in Los Angeles following Lopezโ€™s public split with Alex Rodriguez, 45, and according to Page Six, this is been happening quite frequently.

โ€œSecurity picks him up at a nearby location and drops him off after spending a few hours at her house,โ€ a source told the publication on Friday (Apr. 30, 2021).

The outlet said Affleck had been seen being driven in a white Cadillac Escalade SUV that is reportedly owned by Lopez and that the Gone Girl star is then taken to a predetermined rendezvous point for his time with the Hustlers actress.

Affleck has allegedly visited Lopez three times since she returned to Los Angeles from shooting her new film, Shotgun Wedding, in the Dominican Republic.

However, an insider said to pump the brakes, telling Page Six, the formerly engaged pair โ€œare friendsโ€ and have โ€œnever not been.โ€

DEMOCRACY WATCH

Affleck and Lopez were engaged in 2002 and made headlines as โ€œBenniferโ€ during their years together, even co-starring in the films Jersey Girl and Gigli. They postponed their 2003 wedding days before they were set to walk down the aisle, then officially split by January 2004.

Despite going their separate ways, the two have remained friendly with Affleck commenting on Lopezโ€™s glow in an interview with InStyle when Lopez graced the cover of its May Beauty Issue.

The Oscar winner opened up about Lopez to the magazine joking, โ€œWhere are you keeping the fountain of youth?โ€

โ€œWhy do you look the same as you did in 2003 and it kind of looks like Iโ€™m in my 40s โ€ฆ at best?โ€ he added.

In response, Lopez told the magazine, โ€œI donโ€™t have any [beauty] secrets except JLo Beauty โ€” and Iโ€™m giving them all to everyone with every product. Ben is funny! He still looks pretty good too.โ€
