Ben Affleck dismisses rumours of new romance amid Lopez split

Just a year ago, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck were held up as an example that old love never dies. Today, however, they are closer to the saying that you can't step into the same river twice. In August, Jennifer filed divorce papers, thereby confirming the growing rumours of a crisis in her relationship with Affleck that had been spreading for months.

Life goes on. On the same day that Jennifer was handling the first formalities of the divorce, Ben was seen in the company of a mysterious woman. Since then, the tabloid press has shown even more interest in the actor's love life and how he is coping after another split from Jennifer.

In recent days, there has been much talk about his alleged relationship with Kick Kennedy, the daughter of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. According to information obtained by TMZ, Affleck believes these rumours are completely unfounded and utterly absurd. People close to him say that "he is irritated by this whole situation." Additionally, a source close to Kick Kennedy also confirmed that there is nothing between her and Affleck.

Let's add that rumours about a new romance were never confirmed by any photos. No one has seen Ben and Kick spending time together. Nevertheless, the rumour quickly caught fire in the international media and was repeated.

TMZ suggests that Ben may not be in the right frame of mind for new relationships with women in the face of divorce-related drama. The star couple didn't sign a prenuptial agreement, making their financial situation somewhat complicated. Sources close to Affleck and Jennifer claim that fruitless negotiations have led to the spouses not even speaking to each other.
