Affleck and the Marry Me actress, who were initially engaged in the mid-2000s, reunited in May 2021 following Lopez’s split from fiancé Alex Rodriguez.

She has a different take. Whoopi Goldberg addressed Charlize Theron‘s comments about Kim Kardashian‘s influence in Hollywood.
Just last week, Jennifer Lopez gushed about her "real" and "forever" love for her husband Ben Affleck- but now she apparently wants to improve him, by encouraging him to get a little help when it comes to his appearance.The singer is on a mission to hid her actor husband of his 'life lines' and thinks Botox and fillers could be the answer- well, it certainly solves the problem of what to get him for Christmas!"Jen thinks Ben is the most handsome man ever, but she thinks he should have started these procedures years ago, even though she says she's never actually had them done herself," our source says."She thinks he needs a delicate amount of filler to iron out those crow's feet and Botox to soften his lined forehead- and a facelift might be a good idea. She obviously loves him no matter what, but jokes it wouldn't be a bad thing if they both held onto eternal youth."Last year, Jen, 53, denied ever having Botox after images emerged of her with a completely crease-free forehead insisting, "That's just my face!! For the millionth time, I have never done Botox or any injectables or surgery!"But she can see the benefit when it comes to her husband, and wants to inject some Hollywood glam into him."Jen is all about them looking every inch the beautiful power couple and doesn't want her man covered in lines and wrinkles.
Charlize Theron believes Kim Kardashian can get "way more off the ground" in Hollywood than Meryl Streep. During an interview for The Hollywood Reporter, the actress/producer admitted that she doesn't have the "same currency" to get projects made as she did in the past. Reflecting on the idea further, Charlize emphasised that the "market is very different today" and a different level of "fame" is often required to get people's attention.
