<p id=”par-2_82″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/jennifer-lopez-ben-affleck-split-whole-world-exploded.html/”>Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck started their divorce</a> in August 2024. However, their filing states that they officially separated as a couple in April 2024. Neither <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/jennifer-lopez-stop-dating-musical-artists-athletes-professional-matchmaker-warns.html/”>Lopez nor Affleck appear to be dating anyone</a> just yet. Lopez recently opened up in an interview regarding how she’s excited to focus on herself in this next chapter of her life. As for Affleck, rumors flew that <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kick-kennedy-less-thrilled-ben-affleck-started-dating-ana-de-armas-source-says.html/”>he and Kathleen “Kick” Kennedy</a> had a budding romance. But those rumors seemed to have dropped off. </p>
<p id=”par-3_71″>A source told <a href=”https://www.intouchweekly.com/posts/jennifer-lopez-seeing-red-over-ben-afflecks-divorce-makeover-excl/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>In Touch Weekly</a> that Affleck has started making serious lifestyle changes as he reenters the dating scene. “Ben is suddenly going out of his way to pamper himself and look his absolute best,” the insider alleged. “He’s now dying his hair, getting manicures and pedicures, getting waxed from head to toe. He’s even getting hair plugs and seeing the dermatologist for skin treatments to turn back the clock.” </p>
<p id=”par-4_65″>Affleck seemed to show off his new look in early October while out with his child, Fin. The father of three sported a button-down shirt, black dress pants, a freshly trimmed beard, and dyed hair. The source added that Lopez is “seeing red” over Affleck’s changes, “because these are all the things she wanted him to do when they were together, and he totally refused.” </p>
<p id=”par-5_49″>“It feels like a total slap in the face because it’s sending this message that she wasn’t worth making these changes for, but now that he’s single and looking to impress new women, he’s willing to step it up and stop being such a slob,” the insider continued. </p>
