Will Ben Affleck Move on with Jennifer Aniston amid Jennifer Lopez Divorce?
“Ben needed new energy in his life. He’s in a better mindset and is pushing forward,” an insider dished. “Ben feels like he’s been weighed down this year. He will always care for Jen, but he knows the marriage is done, and he wants to focus on himself right now.”
Meanwhile, as Affleck and Lopez continue to work out their alleged split, sources claim that Jennifer Aniston might be looking to move in on Affleck. The former Friends star reportedly has a crush on the actor and thinks they could be a good match, per In Touch Weekly.
“Jen has definitely had a mini crush on Ben for years, but he’s always been in these very serious, long-term relationships during that time. But change is in the air,” the informant told the outlet. “As things pretty openly wind down between JLo and Ben, there’s a real opportunity for Jen to make up for lost time with Ben.”
The insider went on to reveal that Affleck and Aniston have been friendly and flirty for several years. They previously worked on He’s Just Not That Into You together and have been looking to work together again in the future. Meanwhile, their mutual friends, such as Sandra Bullock and Jon Hamm, reportedly think they’d be a great match.
“Ben really is exactly Jen’s type: he’s an overachiever, he’s self-made, he’s still culturally relevant, and he’s still handsome,” the source stated. “But Jen has had these unrequited crushes before — several times since she and Brad Pitt split up — and it’s always been tricky for her to turn them into something real.”
