Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are no longer one of Hollywood’s perfect pairs. The couple officially called it quits when JLo filed for divorce from the Batman actor in late August. Now that they’re both single, things have changed for the duo. Lopez recently spoke about her divorce, although she didn’t mention Affleck by name. Since their split, rumors are flying that the singer has moved on and is currently being courted by rapper Drake. Meanwhile, Affleck was spotted looking downcast.
The Mirror reports that Ben Affleck was photographed out with his assistant during a coffee run. He sported a pair of brown pants, a cream-colored button-up shirt, and marron coat with a fleece lining. In the photos, the actor looks to be stressed and downcast, and there’s a possiblity that it had something to do with Jennifer Lopez’s recent interview or the rumors about her dating life.

“He always looks nasty,” one person said of Affleck’s facial expressions.
“He was born stern. Not a happy chappy,” stated another.
“This is the way he always looks,” a third person wrote.
“He can’t have his cake and eat it too. He doesn’t want to be married to JLo, but he wants her. Drake’s reaping all the benefits,” a fourth comment read.
It was previously reported by In Touch Weekly that as soon as JLo filed for divorce from Affleck she was contacted by Drake. Lopez and Drake have a romantic history and dated briefly in the past. Now that the singer is single again, the rapper wasted no time revealing that he’s interested in rekindling their former flame.
“As soon as she filed the papers, Drake reached out,” an insider told the outlet. “He was very sweet and told her what a fool Ben is for letting her get away, and then he quickly let her know he’s ready and willing to step in and satisfy her.”
For his part, Affleck has been romantically linked to Kick Kennedy. He’s also been rumored to be growing close to his ex-wife Jennifer Garner again. However, he’s yet to make any public moves regarding the speculation.
Only time will tell if Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez will be able to settle their divorce amicably and move on with their lives. However, fans are interested to see what the future holds for the duo.
