Ben Affleck Responds to Latina Question with a Smile Amid Post-Divorce Spotlight

Date:

Ben Affleck, now officially single following his divorce from Jennifer Lopez earlier this year, is once again attracting attention in the public eye. The Hollywood star was recently approached outside Lavo Ristorante, where paparazzi caught a candid moment that’s gone viral.
When asked in Spanish about being Hollywood’s “most eligible bachelor,” Affleck responded with a lighthearted smile and a cheerful “Muy bien.” The conversation took a playful turn when another question followed: “Do you still like Latinas?” Affleck replied without hesitation, “Yes, of course,” referencing a preference that aligns with his high-profile past relationship with Latina superstar Jennifer Lopez.
Affleck and Lopez finalized their divorce in January 2025 after a two-year marriage. The pair, known for their rollercoaster romance that began in the early 2000s, rekindled their relationship in 2021 and married in 2022 before parting ways again in 2024.
While Affleck keeps his private life relatively low-key, he remains active in his career. He recently reprised his role as Christian Wolff in The Accountant 2, which premiered at SXSW to strong audience acclaim.
