RBF no more?
Ben Affleck looked uncharacteristically happy as he arrived at his Beverly Hills, Calif. office on Thursday.
The “Jersey Girl” star, who has been endlessly trolled for his “resting bitch face,” smiled as he walked into work wearing a suit and carrying a large black duffle bag.
He radiated cheerfulness the same day an insider told Page Six that Jennifer Lopez’s inner circle — and especially her longtime manager Benny Medina — never liked him.
Ben Affleck looked cheerful as he smiled in Beverly Hills, Calif. Thursday, as seen above.
His cheerful disposition came as he headed into work Thursday while rocking a suit on.
“The two of them can’t stand each other. They don’t get along and there’s still bad blood,” our source told us Thursday.
Medina was Lopez’s manager in the early 2000s — but parted ways with her after she got engaged to Affleck in 2002. We were told their relationship played a role in Medina’s departure from Lopez’s payroll.
However, once the “Gigli” co-stars parted ways in 2004, Medina and the “Jenny from the Block” singer got back together, and have been ever since.
Another source told Page Six that no one except Lopez’s mother likes Affleck.
The same day Affleck displayed an uncharacteristic grin across his face, Page Six reported Lopez’s inner circle never liked him.
Our insider specifically noted that Lopez’s longtime manager, Benny Medina (seen above), has “bad blood” with him.
While Affleck dressed with a smile this week, a source recently said this summer has been difficult for him amid his reported divorce proceedings with Lopez.
“He’s just trying to stay focused and make every day as good as possible,” a source told People Friday.
Breakup rumors have been swirling since May, when Lopez, 55, walked the red carpets at the Met Gala and her “Atlas” premiere solo while Affleck, 51, stayed in Los Angeles — supposedly because he was busy working on “The Accountant 2.”
A source told People Friday that the “Argo” star has had a particularly tough summer amid his impending divorce from Lopez.
Page Six learned that he is delaying filing for divorce to save Lopez from more humiliation.
Page Six learned earlier this summer, though, that the pair have been over since March.
According to a Page Six source, the “Marry Me” star feels “humiliated” and “frustrated” that their reconciliation didn’t work out, especially because “she made a big deal that he’s the love of her life.”
Our sources also said Affleck is holding off on officially filing for divorce to avoid humiliating her further.
An insider told Page Six this week that the singer is “humiliated” and “frustrated” that they split.
She is also upset that their kids are involved.
He recently purchased a $20.5 million Pacific Palisades, Calif., mansion as he begins to create his life post-split. The marital home he shared with Lopez is currently siting on the market for $68 million.
While the “On the Floor” hitmaker reportedly feels there is “no more” she can do to save their marriage, she’s also upset that their children are involved, per Page Six insiders.
The pair blended their five kids when they tied the knot in July 2022.
Lopez has 16-year-old twins — Max and Emme — from her previous marriage to Marc Anthony.
Lopez shares twins, Emme and Max, with her ex-husband, Marc Anthony.
Affleck shares three kids — Violet, Seraphina and Samuel — with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.
Affleck, meanwhile, shares three kids — Violet, 18, Seraphina, 17, and Samuel, 12 — with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.
The “13 Going on 30” star, 52, was reportedly “encouraging” the “Good Will Hunting” star to work on his marriage to Lopez at one point.
“She fully supports their relationship and wants nothing more than for him to be happy,” an insider told Us Weekly.
The exes announced their separation in 2015 after 10 years of marriage.
