The two sit close together, look each other in the eye and kiss: Singer Jennifer Lopez is apparently again in a relationship with her ex-fiancé, the actor and director Ben Affleck.
In a video published by the gossip site "Page Six", the two stars can be seen close together.
According to the news site, Lopez, 51, and Affleck, 48, were sitting together over dinner in Malibu to celebrate Lopez's sister Linda's 50th birthday.
However, the caresses are repeatedly interrupted by Lopez's 13-year-old son, who holds a smartphone in front of the two of them to show them something.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez were already a couple around 20 years ago, they also stood together in front of the camera for the feature film "Gigli - Love with Risk" (2003), which was panned by critics and flopped at the box office.
In January 2004, the couple split shortly after they canceled their wedding.
The singer was later married to the singer Marc Anthony.
Affleck led his colleague Jennifer Garner to the altar in June 2005.
It was only in April that it became known that Lopez and her fiancé Alex Rodriguez, 45, had split up.
"We have recognized that we get along better as friends, and we look forward to staying that way," said a message from the two, from which the TV broadcaster NBC quoted.
Because of the corona pandemic, Lopez and Rodriguez had to postpone their wedding indefinitely.
Since then, there has been repeated speculation about a separation.
In February, Lopez said in an interview that she had been on couples therapy with Rodriguez.
Lopez and Rodriguez got engaged in 2019 after two years of relationship.
Lopez, who became world famous with songs like "If You Had My Love" and "Jenny From The Block", was married three times and has two children.
Rodriguez, who had great success with the New York Yankees during his baseball career, was previously married and has two children.
