Ben Affleck seen with Kiki Kennedy after Jennifer Lopez split

At the beginning of the week, the media was abuzz with news about Ben Affleck's and Jennifer Lopez's breakup. Soon after, reports surfaced that the actor was seen several times with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s daughter.

Just as the news of the breakup between Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck shocked the media, reports emerged that the 52-year-old actor was seen with 36-year-old Kathleen "Kiki" Kennedy, the daughter of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The "Page Six" portal reports that Affleck and Kathleen have met several times. A source stated that the couple spent time at the Polo Lounge in the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel and other popular celebrity spots.

Despite having been spotted together, the nature of the relationship between Ben and Kathleen is currently unknown. "Daily Mail" contacted the actor's representatives for comments but has not yet received a response. The portal emphasizes that reports about the relationship between Ben Affleck and Kiki Kennedy surfaced shortly after Jennifer Lopez filed an official divorce petition. She did so just two years after their wedding.

After months of rumors about their marriage crisis, Lopez finally confirmed it. The singer and actress cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the breakup, also specifying the exact date of separation, which was said to be April 26, 2024. A person close to the couple revealed in an interview with "Us Weekly" that Ben and Jennifer had agreed on the terms of the breakup even before the singer filed the divorce papers.

In July this year, the couple decided to sell their estate. The residence was listed for $68 million.

Rumors about the actor and singer's breakup intensified in May this year when the couple was not seen together for an extended period. Affleck's absence during the singer's 55th birthday also fueled the rumors.

A "Page Six" source reported that problems in Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez's marriage began in 2022. "They would barely speak to each other during what was supposed to be the happiest time of their life," the portal's source reported, indicating that issues had already surfaced during the honeymoon. "He sold her on him being a changed man, and that lasted a very short time," the informant added.

There was also speculation that the actor could not cope with his wife's level of fame. He reportedly wanted more privacy. Meanwhile, a "People" source reported that the reason for the breakup was the actor's "mood swings."
