Jennifer Lopez started dating Ben Affleck again for a reason

Jennifer Lopez, 51, and Ben Affleck, 48, reunited after the “Let’s Get Loud” singer split from her ex fiance Alex Rodriguez, and have seemingly rekindled their romance. It seems Bennifer is back on, all these years later!

But apparently the reunion began as an attempt to get a “reaction” from A-Rod. “This started out with her trying to get a reaction from Alex, but then she realized it could turn into something and she’d be lying if she said that doesn’t make her feel good,” the insider began, per HollywoodLife.

“Her feelings on having something with Ben are real and she wants to explore that. Things with A-Rod are over forever in her eyes and she’s working on moving on.” The source added, “Jennifer is still taking things slow with Ben. It just sort of happened.”

Jennifer Lopez was all-smiles as she walked in front of Ben Affleck, wearing a light blue dress as she kept her hair pulled back in a ponytail. This is the first sighting of the pair since they were seen together in Montana on May 10. As fans would know, the pair were engaged in 2002 however they split back in January 2004, but we all know old flames die hard.
