Jennifer Lopez believes Ben Affleck is attempting to influence her.
Actor Ben Affleck’s growing friendship with football great David Beckham and his wife Victoria has angered Jennifer Lopez. According to reports, Ben has made new friends with the Beckham family since they moved to Miami, which has angered Jennifer. “Victoria has always been someone JLo has admired and liked; the two became close when she was married to Marc Anthony. They were frequent hangouts. After she and Marc split, she and Victoria drifted apart, but she still considers her a friend,” claimed some sources as per a report by In Touch Weekly.
Jennifer Lopez and the Beckham clan have a deep history together, with JLo seeking comfort from them after her marriage to Marc Anthony ended in 2014. In fact, David and Victoria Beckham helped share concerns about Jennifer’s daughter Emme after she parted ways with Marc, a source told Closer. Things changed when Jennifer filed for divorce from Ben Affleck in August. Ben being “suddenly all over” the Beckhams is reportedly “really upsetting,” according to JLo.
Following their divorce, Ben Affleck has been keeping a low profile with Jennifer Lopez. According to the source, the Gone Girl star would “rather not” see his ex-wife unless it was absolutely necessary. JLo still believes Ben is attempting to influence her thoughts, though. The singer of “On the Floor” is “convinced” that Ben’s unexpected friendship with the Beckhams is deliberate. “He is only doing this to get even with her because, despite JLo’s insistence that she made several suggestions, he never expressed any interest in spending time with them when they were together. He is now essentially scavenging and flinging himself around with many of her former pals. According to the source, she blatantly accused Ben of attempting to extort her friends in order to gain favour.
Another source revealed that although Jennifer Lopez “claims to be moving on from Ben, the truth is quite the opposite.” “Although she talks a good game about moving on, the truth is that she is still just as obsessed as ever,” it stated.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez began dating shortly after meeting on the set of the movie Gigi. The couple rekindled their romance in 2021 and were married in 2022, despite calling off their 2004 wedding. According to reports, the couple decided to split up after marital problems surfaced earlier this year.
