A sense of longing seems to linger! Just weeks after starting their divorce proceedings, Jennifer Lopez was spotted sharing affectionate moments with her estranged husband, Ben Affleck, during a family brunch on September 14 at the Beverly Hills Hotel. However, insiders are raising concerns, suggesting that this affectionate reunion exposes vulnerabilities for both ex-partners.
According to a source speaking to In Touch, “Jennifer craves romance and adulation,” while Ben, 52, who has faced challenges with rehabilitation and gambling, “is always looking for the next rush, regardless of whether it’s beneficial for him. Ben is walking a precarious path by being so physically close to his estranged wife.”
Their relationship reignited in 2021, with Jennifer describing their 2004 breakup as “the biggest heartbreak of my life” and their 2022 wedding as fulfilling her dreams
After reigniting their relationship in 2021, Jennifer, 55, and Ben aimed to create a romantic narrative, with Jennifer previously stating that their 2004 breakup was “the biggest heartbreak of my life” and that their 2022 wedding symbolized “all [my] dreams coming true.”
In the wake of their public split this year, however, the pop star confided to her Unstoppable co-star Bobby Cannavale, admitting she often makes poor choices in partners.
Yet, it appears the couple struggles to move on. “She held onto the belief that they were meant to be and that their second chance would succeed,” the insider revealed. “Although there’s undeniably a lingering physical attraction, the underlying conflicts remain. This could finally lead to greater resentment.”
