Jennifer Lopez, 56, and her ex-husband Ben Affleck, 53, met up at the premiere of the film 'Kiss of the Spider Woman' in New York, and while many might have thought it would be “awkward,” it turned out to be the opposite! The two looked comfortable and smiling.

This is their first appearance together since their divorce; the two were together for two years. They married in a modest wedding in Las Vegas, Nevada, and then had a bigger celebration.

Cameras captured cozy moments between the star and her ex-husband, who gazed into each other’s eyes, shared a heart-to-heart, and posed with broad smiles. Affleck, with an arm around Lopez, even helped her maneuver her high heels down the carpet, a gesture that didn’t go unnoticed.

The cozy appearance was enough to send fans on social media speculating about a possible reconciliation. “They’re not over,” wrote one user on X, formerly Twitter, while another proclaimed, “Bennifer 3.0,” reviving the couple’s nickname. “These two are meant to be together. Hopefully they work it out,” added a third.

A professional collaboration

Beyond the rumors, the bond between Lopez and Affleck remains strong on a professional level: 'Kiss of the Spider Woman,' a musical starring Lopez, was produced by Affleck through his company, Artists Equity.

During the event, Lopez didn't hesitate to publicly thank her ex-husband. “Thank you so much, Ben. This movie wouldn’t have happened without Ben and Artist Equity,” the actress declared, flashing him a bright smile.

This premiere comes after Lopez called her divorce “the best thing” that ever happened to her last month, a statement that contrasts with the image of unity and mutual support they projected on the red carpet.

The night made it clear that, whether or not they’ve reconciled, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck remain a dynamic duo, both personally and professionally.
