Bennifer takes Miami: JLo and Ben Affleck’s reignited romance heats up down south
It’s official: Bennifer 2.0.
How do we know? Because Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck took their newly reignited romance to Miami, and there’s photographic proof.
On Sunday, paparazzi pics captured the two stars luxuriating on the balcony at JLo’s rental.
Affleck was seen taking in the view while smoking a cigarette, Lopez posing for selfies.
In one photo, Lopez, 51, is walking down the stairs with a huge smile on her face, with Affleck, 48, right behind her.
How long will Bennifer last this time? The reunited couple has a few obstacles.
Number one is geography: Lopez needs to split her time between two coasts, as her twins with Marc Anthony live in South Florida; Affleck’s three kids live in L.A. with his co-parent Jennifer Garner.
All we know it’s looking like a hot summer is ahead for these two stars, be it in Miami or elsewhere.
“It’s all very new and exciting even though they have known each other forever,” an insider told E! News. “It’s been fun to get to know each other all over again. They are both very happy with where things are and where they are going.”
One question remained: Will they go out in public here or remain holed up in Lopez’s house?
Monday afternoon, Miami got the answer. JLo and Ben were spotted working out at Anatomy in Miami Beach, according to Page Six. A source said the two were working out separately with individual trainers, but were giving each other lovely dovey looks while they trained.
We have to wonder if they worry about running into JLo’s ex, ARod.
The retired baller, who just started a men’s concealer line, was reportedly “shocked” by how quickly his former fiancée moved on with her former fiancé. But the single father of two now seems to be taking a more accepting approach to the split.
On his Stories the same day, the 45-year-old wrote a pensive note to followers: “I am about to step into a new beginning in my life. Anything that doesn’t serve me is clearing out of my life. New energy is emerging. New levels are unlocking for me mentally, physically, and spiritually. I am remaining patient and know that this new phase of my life is coming.”
