Ben Affleck’s rise, fall, and every upsetting digression in between has been a major focus of the tabloids and the public since his Oscar-winning foray viaGood Will Hunting. The 1997 film had proven the young star’s worth as the Bostonian (alongside Matt Damon) helped raise the bar for other Hollywood aspirants and dreamers in the making.
However, in the past decade, Affleck has wrought more damage to his personal life, reputation, and relationships due to his struggle with addiction. After the disintegration of his marriage with Jennifer Garner, the actor and director has been through a flurry of short-lived romances that ended with his marriage to Jennifer Lopez. They were divorced a year later.

Not only did the couple seem closer than ever but the same was confirmed by an inside source as well. In an exclusive report toLife & Style, the source claimed:
Ben and Jen are closer than ever. They’ve developed a mutual respect and a deeper level of friendship they didn’t have before. It has some friends asking if they could be on their way to getting back together. Jen has watched him evolve. She’s seen the progress and the transformation, and it’s changed how she feels about him. It’s no secret that Ben thinks Jen was the best thing to ever happen to him.
Although there have been reports and rumors about some strife between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez due to the actor’s relationship with his first wife, Jennifer Garner, these rumors are unsubstantiated and without merit. Even as Affleck and JLo maintain an amicable public image post-separation, tabloids and gossip columns are intent on reading trouble between the lines.
