Recent reports indicate that Jennifer Aniston may have developed a secret infatuation with Ben Affleck, the actor known for his role as "Batman." Jennifer reportedly plans to pursue a romantic relationship with Ben whenever he becomes available, presumably after his separation from his current spouse, Jennifer Lopez.
“Jen has had a mini crush on Ben for years, even when he was in these very serious, long-term relationships. But change is in the air. As things openly wind down between J.Lo and Ben, there’s a real opportunity. They’ve never been single at the same time, and Jen has been a true-blue fan of Ben’s for decades,” an unnamed source told Globe Magazine.
The “FRIENDS” alum starred with Ben in the 2009 movie "He’s Just Not That Into You,” and although her representative denied it, insiders told the entertainment news outlet that Jennifer had been really into him ever since.
“They still keep each other in mid for possible projects together. There’s a friendly and flirty open line of communication between them,” the anonymous insider told the entertainment news outlet.
Initially, Ben has three children in common with his former spouse, Jennifer Garner. The current state of his marriage to the "Papi" hitmaker is extremely precarious.
Meanwhile, Jennifer experienced emotional distress when her former husband, Brad Pitt, ended their marriage and entered a relationship with Angelina Jolie following five years of being married. Her second trip down the aisle was likewise brief—she and Justin Theroux separated after three years.
“Ben is exactly Jen’s type: He’s an overachiever, he’s self-made, he’s still culturally relevant, and he’s handsome as hell. Trouble is, Jen has had these unrequited crushes before and it’s always been tricky to turn them into something real,” the informant shared.
Jennifer is said to be really delighted about landing the role in "The Morning Show". According to a tipster who informed Life & Style Magazine, the star of "Murder Mystery" is once again amazed by her own exceptional talent in relation to this show.
For those unfamiliar, Jennifer's television show "The Morning Show" featuring Reese Witherspoon has received a total of 16 Emmy nominations thus far. Regarding this triumph, the mole further stated that Brad Pitt's ex-wife experienced a boost in her self-esteem as a result of this accomplishment.
“Especially the incredible number of acting nominations Season 3 got – nine in total – because she is extremely involved in picking the actors who join the massive ensemble,” the spy continued.
“It’s just been a huge pat on the back and a big reversal from two years ago, when Jen was fighting tooth-and-nail just for the chance to do a third season. But now the show is a hit with both audiences and the TV Academy, and critics are catching onto it too,” the tattler shared.
