Ben Affleck and Matt Damon have been known as the best of friends for decades. They have worked and starred in different movies together and even won awards for it. However, now that they have their own families, there are reports that the bad-boy ways of Jennifer Garner's ex-husband are getting on the way of Damon and his wife's, Luciana Barroso, relationship. Is there any truth about this?
Whenever the Argo star hits a hard time, his friend has always been there for him. When Ben Affleck's battle against his alcohol addiction continued and went through a divorce, he has Matt Damon by his side.
After the success of their movie Good Will Hunting, the two are now working on a new project again together - The Last Duel. Hence, they are spending more time together, but Celebrity Insider noted that a tabloid claimed that Matt Damon's wife is having a hard time dealing with Ben Affleck's bad-boy ways and being around them often.
A source claimed that Ben Affleck regularly turns up at Matt Damon's place. He comes whether it's school night or the weekends when Matt and Luciana Barroso should have been enjoying their family time. Unfortunately, it's allegedly becoming a big problem for the couple.
"Ben is obviously excited and feels like working with Matt puts him squarely on the comeback trail," the insider added. "It's also gotten Ben's creative juices flowing again."
As Ben Affleck is technically single after his divorce from Jennifer Garner, the tipster continued to say that he expects Matt Damon to act the same. Fans are even reportedly worried that he is taking advantage of their friendship and disrespecting Luciana Barroso or their children.
Ben Affleck allegedly couldn't take a hint. He would spend the night and pig out on pizza on the couple's couch and watch sports, too. Although working with Matt Damon might be the best thing that could happen again, The Martian star should set boundaries before Luciana Barroso get mad at them both.
No one between Ben Affleck and Matt Damon talked about this tabloid report. Gossip Cop even claimed that the article is a total work of fiction. Indeed, the two are spending a lot of time lately together because they are working on a script with Nicole Holofcener for the screenplay of The Last Duel.
This might be the reason why Ben Affleck often shows up at Matt Damon's house, but it would never be unannounced. He, too, is not spending the night eating pizza and watching TV at his home. Ben's spokesperson even denied the news, saying the article is total nonsense.
