Ben Affleck’s marriage to Jennifer Lopez is officially over. The singer filed for divorce from the actor in August. Now, Affleck is ready for a fresh start, and that includes getting his life together. Despite having a long and successful career, it looks like the Gone Girl star is ready to start prioritizing his health and fitness. If for no other reason than to get back into the dating game.
In Touch Weekly reports that Ben Affleck has hired a trainer and is looking to sculpt his revenge body amid his divorce from Jennifer Lopez. As many fans know, JLo is big on health and fitness. However, Affleck has been seen eating junk food in the past. He also has a nasty smoking habit.
However, all of that is in the past as the actor looks toward the future. He’s ready to start a new chapter, and that includes getting his body into prime condition to add to his new bad boy style and haircut.
Ben Affleck Looking to Keep Up With Jennifer Lopez Amid Divorce?
“Ben’s always had this Achilles heel when it comes to his workouts – he keeps up with his cardio and lifts weights at home to keep his upper body tight, mainly because he’s so afraid of letting his pecs turn saggy and developing man boobs,” an insider dished. “But squatting and leg work isn’t his deal at all. He hates it. So, the butt’s droopy as a result and Ben’s kind of buried his head in the sand about the problem until now.”
“So, the trainer’s coming in, the junk’s being phased out, as are the cigarettes, and fixing his rear end is physical priority number one! He may opt for some new tattoos at some point soon, too, but that’s another story,” the informant added.
Recently, Affleck has been romantically linked to Kick Kennedy. However, his rep has denied the dating speculation. It was previously reported that single father was looking forward to dating again, but that he felt his divorce from Lopez was holding him back.
Meanwhile, JLo is said to be setting her sights on some of Hollywood’s hot young single men. She reportedly wants to have some fun with the likes of Zac Efron, Joe Jonas, or Pete Davidson. This could be another reason Affleck’s looking to get in shape.
“Why is he trying to cut out the junk food and cigarettes now? JLo wanted him to do that for years, but he wouldn’t. Now that she’s gone he’s focused on his health? Revenge?” one fan wondered.
“He wants to be a Hollywood hunk again,” stated another.
“Ben is ready to become a new man now that JLo is out of the picture,” a third comment read.
Ultimately, Ben Affleck focusing on his health is a good thing. Whether he’s looking to get a revenge body during his divorce from Jennifer Lopez, or simply wanting to be in better shape. He has three children and tons of fans who would certainly love to see him prioritize his health amid this difficult time.
