One of Ben Affleck's most famous exes has just given the seal of approval
to his marriage with Jennifer Lopez. Gwyneth Paltrow is feeling the love
as she has recently commented on the couple's surprise Las Vegas wedding.
She reacted to the couple's wedding in the most adorable way, and this left everyone in awe.
And I'm going to talk about what Gwyneth Paltrow said about Ben
and Lopez's marriage and how she reacted to it.
But in case you didn't know, Gwyneth Paltrow dated Ben Affleck from 1997 to 2000 after
meeting on the set of the 1998 film Shakespeare in Love. However, when things didn't work out,
Paltrow left Ben. But despite this, she remained on good terms with Affleck,
and her recent remarks on his wedding with J Lo confirm it.
Regarding Affleck, he dated Jennifer Lopez in the early 2000s before marrying Jennifer Garner,
another movie actress. And Gwyneth disclosed in a 2015 interview that she ended her relationship
with Ben Affleck because he allegedly was "not in a good place in his life to have a girlfriend."
And now, after more than two decades of separation,
the actress finally commented on her ex's recent wedding to Jennifer Lopez.
It is unfortunate that the relationship between Ben and Gwyneth was not built to last. Paltrow
went on to date some other guys, and she had previously ended a long-term relationship
and engagement with Brad Pitt, and Ben was essentially a rebound relationship.
During this time, Gwyneth stated about Ben, "I just think we have a very different sort
of value system. Ben makes life tough for himself. He's got a lot of complication,
and you know, he really is a great guy. So I hope he sorts himself out."
Despite the fact that Paltrow once defined Affleck's "perfect woman"
as "any dancer at Scores" and "anyone who offers cool beer in
a bikini," she still speaks highly of her ex-boyfriend. She informed Howard
Stern in 2015 that she and Ben remained friends. "I like him," she remarked.
In addition, Paltrow recognizes the significance of her relationship with Affleck. She explained,
"I think there's certain boyfriends where you are trying to work stuff out, right? Like,
you're trying to heal certain stuff from your childhood and he was very much a lesson
in that way. I'm not sure exactly what I was trying to heal in that instance,
but it was ... he was, ya know, it was specific."
Now, we know that after Gwyneth, Ben dated Jennifer Lopez and became engaged
to her. However, things didn't work out, and they eventually split up.
Well, seeing his relationship history, it is pretty clear that Ben never moved on with Jennifer
Lopez. Despite going their separate ways in 2004, they have rekindled one of Hollywood's most
beloved relationships, as seen by their countless outings and red carpet appearances together.
In an interview with People in 2016, the actress reflected on the beginning of their relationship.
She stated, "We didn't try to have a public relationship. We just happened to be together
at the birth of the tabloids, and it was like, 'Oh my God.' It was just a lot of pressure."
She also disclosed her initial opinion of Affleck. She added, "I felt like … 'Okay,
this is it. But sometimes I feel like what you think people are and
how you see them when you love them is different than when they reveal later."
They were clearly in love, and this is why they got engaged. However,
another split was coming their way as the couple ended their engagement on January 22,
2004. J Lo confirmed the sad news via her representative. The statement said,
"I am confirming the report that Jennifer Lopez has ended her engagement to Ben
Affleck. At this difficult time, we ask that you respect her privacy."
However, they couldn't live separately for so long as Bennifer reunited in April 2021. They were seen
hanging out together again, and the actor was spotted many times at her Los Angeles residence.
According to Page Six, "security picks him up at a nearby location and drops him off after
spending a few hours at her house. "They are friends and they've never not been."
In essence, we can say that Ben and Gwyneth's breakup was hardly a hiccup in their relationship.
And now, despite the fact they have been separated for years
and Ben has married Jennifer Lopez, Gwyneth has acted as the perfect ex.
While everyone was still adoring this, the couple surprised everyone on July 17 when they married
in a Las Vegas ceremony at midnight. She also stated that she adopted her
husband's surname and published a selfie of herself in bed wearing her wedding band.
Lopez wrote in her post:
"They were right when they said, 'all you need is love.' We are so grateful to have that in
abundance, a new wonderful family of five amazing children and a life that we have never had more
reason to look forward to. Love is a great thing, maybe the best of things-and worth waiting for."
And now, fans are adoring Bennifer, and most importantly,
Ben's ex Gwyneth has also adored them, and fans are simply loving her gesture.
As she responded to comments from fans on her Instagram Story,
the Oscar-winning actress expressed her delight for ex-boyfriend Ben
Affleck following his unexpected Las Vegas wedding with Jennifer Lopez.
When questioned about her feelings towards the wedding, Paltrow responded:
"Love!!! So romantic!!! Very happy for them."
Importantly, she talked about how she sees the
recently wed couple and what are her feelings for Ben Affleck after this.
It all transpired during a question-and-answer session Gwyneth Paltrow held with her Instagram
followers via her stories. Many questions were posed,
but one in particular concerned Affleck's recent secret wedding to Jennifer Lopez.
Paltrow's response was brief but nice, and she is truly pleased for her ex-boyfriend.
The question was: "How do you feel about Ben and JLo?" And she openly
said that she was happy for Ben And Jennifer.
Well, it's an honest response from one of Hollywood's biggest performers,
with whom Ben Affleck has been close for years.
Meanwhile, Ben and Jennifer are currently in Paris on their adorable honeymoon. The long-time
pair traveled to Paris immediately after their midnight wedding, and fans have been fawning over
their photographs of them roaming the streets of Paris and enjoying time aboard a fancy boat.
Interestingly, Violet, Ben's daughter with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, has arrived in Paris just in time
to celebrate J Lo's 53rd birthday, making their time in Paris all the more memorable.
But the most interesting part is that Gwyneth gave these adorable
remarks about the newly wed couple when they were on their honeymoon. Well,
it appears that she just loved the pair, and she is happy for them.
She also appears to be adoring their honeymoon in Paris since it is pretty
clear that she may have seen Ben and J Lo's honeymoon pictures on the internet.
Her remarks clearly show that she just loved them, and fans are really happy about it.
However, this is not the first time Gwyneth has reacted to Ben's relationship with Jennifer Lopez.
Back in 2019, she expressed affection for her ex-boyfriend and his girlfriend, Jennifer Lopez.
During this time, the couple, a.k.a Bennifer,
made their red carpet debut as a couple at the Venice International Film Festival, confirming
their relationship. Several individuals, including Jen's stylist Mariel Haenn,
posted images of Ben and Jennifer from the event online. The stylist posted an Instagram
image of the couple kissing and posing for the camera with "Here for it, #Bennifer"
Seeing this post, Gwyneth admitted in the comments section that they
looked adorable together. "Okay, this is cute," she commented.
