Ben Affleck Spotted with New Woman During Jennifer Lopez Divorce: Who Is She?
They were spotted at several trendy spots around Los Angeles
While his divorce from Jennifer Lopez continues to make headlines, Ben Affleck appears to be ready to move on. Just two years after his extravagant wedding to JLo, he seems to be enjoying his newfound freedom. Recently, he was spotted with a new woman, leading some to believe she might be his latest romantic interest.
This isn’t just anyone—Affleck was seen with Kick Kennedy, the 36-year-old daughter of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., at several popular spots in Los Angeles, including the famous Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Although their relationship isn’t entirely clear yet, it looks like Affleck is making the most of this new phase while Jennifer Lopez takes care of their high-profile separation.

So far, neither Kick Kennedy nor Ben Affleck’s team have commented on their relationship. The news that Jennifer Lopez, 55, has filed for divorce from Affleck, 52, broke last week, after months of rumors about a split.
The (Second) End of ‘Beniffer’
Sources close to the couple say their marriage might have ended back in March, though Affleck officially listed April 26 as their separation date, citing ‘irreconcilable differences.’ A big issue seems to be Affleck’s discomfort with media attention.
The actor, who had already dealt with paparazzi pressure during his first romance with Lopez, admitted he felt uneasy during their 2022 honeymoon in Paris because of the press. A source told Page Six that Affleck values his privacy a lot and is determined to keep it, even if it affects his personal relationships. “He’s never fully committed to another person, and it seems he won’t in the future either,” the source said.

Their love story started in 2002 and ended suddenly in 2004, just before their wedding. They rekindled their romance in 2021 and got married in 2022. Unfortunately, their relationship has come to an end again in 2024. It seems unlikely there will be a third round, but you never know—maybe the third time’s the charm. What are your thoughts?
