Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez were basically in Venice for a whirlwind 48 hours. They arrived in Venice last Thursday, The Last Duel premiere was Friday night, and they left Venice by mid-day Saturday. They glowed the whole time, and they just seemed really happy together throughout. I think J.Lo even did some work in Venice separately she definitely did some kind of photoshoot, but no one knows for what. These photos are of Bennifer leaving Venice, and as they were heading to the airport, some fan accosted them or got way too close. Ben basically pushed him away:
First pushed him away because he got too much close, and second before haters start with ?this is staged? look at ben he doesn?t know how to react first. pic.twitter.com/XOfDGPmXWp

Well, it happened. And it was glorious!! Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez walked their first red carpet together since 2003. They arrived in Venice together last Thursday, and the premiere for The Last Duel was on Friday. What was nice about it is that Ben and J.Lo knew they were the main event and they weren?t shy about embracing it. Apparently, they arrived first on the red carpet, and they were both prepared for all of the walls of photographers greeting them. While J.Lo is an old pro at red carpets, it must have been different for her to be at the Venice Film Festival just as Ben?s plus-one. I?m not sure she even wanted to pose solo, and Ben certainly wanted her by his side the whole time.
For those wondering about the dress? J.Lo wore a gown from Georges Hobeika?s Fall 2021 Couture collection. The material is crepe satin and the ?diamond? detailing is Swarovski crystal. She wore Jimmy Choo shoes. She brought her whole glam squad and they?ve been styling her the whole time. I think she?s doing some kind of photoshoot in Venice too, I don?t know if the shoot is for a magazine editorial or maybe one of her advertising contracts?
Anyway, Bennifer. I love them. Celebrities are on-board the Bennifer Revival too. Gwyneth Paltrow left a comment ?okay this is cute? on an Instagram post of Ben and Jen kissing on the carpet. Kim Kardashian posted ?Long Live Bennifer? on her IG too. That?s what it feels like across the board: people are happy for them and happy that they found a way back to each other. Ben seems thinner, fitter, happier, looser and more comfortable in his own skin. J.Lo is completely glowing and they seem enamored with each other in a genuine way. I love this.
I could honestly watch videos of their interactions for hours. Once you see Ben in motion, I kind of think he took something to take the edge off a little bit? I?m not saying booze (he doesn?t seem drunk), but maybe a Xanax or perhaps an edible.

Since the start of Bennifer 2.0 in the spring, I repeatedly said that I wanted them to last until the Met Gala, which is next Monday. But that was before Ben Affleck was scheduled to appear at the Venice Film Festival to premiere The Last Duel, with Matt Damon and Jodie Comer. Some of us theorized that Venice might be the site of Ben and J.Lo?s first red carpet appearance of their relationship revival. Back in the Bennifer 1.0 days, they walked tons of red carpets together, with Ben growing more and more orange and groomed with every carpet. Nowadays, it?s different. And yet still the same!!
Ben and J.Lo have just arrived, today, in Venice. The Last Duel is scheduled to premiere on Friday, which I think we can assume will be Bennifer?s First Red Carpet (in 2021). I like the pacing on this back together in April, vacations in the US and abroad, yacht butt-rubbing and now this, red carpet official. Ben seems very pleased about it too, that he?s got his girlfriend there to support HIS film. He looks like the cat who got the cream.
I can?t believe we?re truly getting Bennifer In Venice for their first red carpet. I?m so happy!!! And of course J.Lo is wearing white lace. How? bridal. Look at that diamond bracelet too! Is that the one Ben gave her years ago?

Ben Affleck took his kids to Westfield Mall in Century City on Monday, which is where he was seen & photographed browsing engagement rings at Tiffany?s. As it turned out, Ben and his kids were just doing a scavenger hunt, but maybe that trip to a mall was exciting for Ben, and it reminded him of old times. On Tuesday, Ben took Jennifer Lopez to the same mall, Westfield Mall, and the paparazzi documented it, of course.
Personally, I love J.Lo?s shopping outfit. That skirt is so cute and it reminds me of Roland Mouret circa-2005. Everything about this relationship already feels retro and throwback, and you can really see J.Lo leaning into that early-aughts and mid-aughts fashion. Which, to be fair, is mostly her style anyway. She truly got all dressed up like this to go to the mall with her boyfriend. Did they eat at the Food Court? Did they browse at Victorias Secret? Did they check out the engagement rings at Tiffany?s? Well, according to Us Weekly, Ben and J.Lo really are talking about marriage:
Ready to put another ring on it! As Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez?s whirlwind romance continues to get more serious, a source exclusively tells Us Weekly that the couple are ?seriously talking about getting married.?
?They are both madly in love and don?t want to let one another go this time,? the insider explains to Us, noting that the Argo producer, 49, considers the Hustlers actress, 52, the ?one that got away? and he is ?determined to make sure that doesn?t happen this time.?
This time around, the insider notes that Affleck and Lopez are ?considering eloping,? instead of having a ?big lavish wedding.?
For the New York native, her boyfriend has ?matured into the man of her dreams? and she would definitely say yes when the right time comes, the source adds.
[From Us Weekly]
I think that if they get married and it?s what they both want, they probably would do a small ceremony with just their kids, at a resort or something. It wouldn?t really be an elopement because, duh, their kids would want to be involved. I don?t think they would do a star-studded, lavish wedding it?s not Ben?s style and Jen would simply want to get him down the aisle this time around. But yeah. Party like it?s 2003. Trips to the mall included.

Last night, Ben Affleck had a single-parent?s date night. A date night with Jennifer Lopez and her daughter Emme. Judging from the photos from recent months, I think Emme is the kid who is giving this Bennifer thing a chance. Maybe Emme thought A-Rod sucked, maybe Emme is just an easy-going kid, but she seems to enjoy spending time with her mom?s new boyfriend. Ben seems sweet to Emme too, even in photos from the Hamptons and beyond, he talks to her a lot and seems especially protective of her. He?s got two daughters, he knows how to talk to girls.
So Ben, J.Lo and Emme went to Craig?s last night. There seemed to be some madness with the paparazzi as they were leaving, and J.Lo was the one who looked a bit stressed out about the flashes from what I imagine was a wall of photographers outside the restaurant. Emme seemed fine with it, and Ben seemed mostly concerned with Emme.
Can I just say? I love how Emme blows up her mom?s color wheel for this relationship. J.Lo had her outfit and Ben?s outfit all planned out on the brown-and-cream wheel and then Emme turns up in her flannel and blue hair and paint-splattered shorts. I love this for all of them.

So, here?s the timeline: July 22 or 23rd, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck fly out of LA and head to Nice/Monaco, where they immediately board the massive yacht they rented. They stayed in the South of France for several days, partying in Monte Carlo and St. Tropez, before sailing off to the Italian coast where they day-tripped in Capri. By last Friday, the birthday trip was over, at least for Ben. He flew out of Italy and went back to France, where Jennifer Garner had apparently dropped off Violet. Jennifer stayed behind in Portofino over the weekend with her friends and her glam squad, and she looked like she was shooting the sequel to Under the Tuscan Sun (photos at the end of the post). It?s the Capri part of the trip that people are talking about at the moment. Apparently, not only did Ben purchase a customized Foundrae necklace for Jen?s birthday. He also took Jennifer to a jewelry store in Capri, where they looked at some different pieces:
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez popped into a jewelry store during their romantic European getaway trying on some serious pieces but theres no ring in play, yet. The shopping trip went down last week at Faraone Mennella jewelry store in Capri, and a store spokesperson tells us J Lo tried on a number of expensive pieces, including necklaces and earrings.
Were told J Lo tried on a $41,000 green tourmaline necklace plus a series of colored hoop earrings ranging from $1,800 to $2,850.
One thing were told the couple did NOT check out, however, was a ring.
The spokesperson tells us Ben and J Lo took a series of photos together inside the jewelry store, where they were flirty and having fun, and J Lo also took a few selfies with the jewelry she tried on before leaving with their entourage. The couple didnt officially purchase anything, but the rep says most celebs call in later to have items shipped back home.
[From TMZ]
The fact that Ben is the kind of guy who loves to buy jewelry for his ladies is definitely a plus in my book. Sure, he?s an addict who sabotages himself and his relationships. But he?s not cheap and he?s actually quite romantic with the jewelry-buying. Their relationship does have a Taylor-Burton vibe, don?t @ me. Richard Burton loved to buy Elizabeth Taylor special jewelry pieces all the time. Not just massive Krupp diamond rings and the Taylor-Burton-Cartier diamond either he bought her smaller pieces up at auction, or little diamond rings for winning at ping-pong. Jennifer clearly kept all of his gifts from the before-time. I really need him to surprise her with that green tourmaline necklace. She can wear it to the Met Gala.
Also: J.Lo was photographed wearing a Batman t-shirt. I LOVE IT!! She?s with the Batfleck!

I will never understand why some of y?all insist on bringing such negative energy to the Bennifer Revival. At best, the Bennifer Revival is harmless, fun gossip. At worst, their kids are mad at their parents and it?s none of our damn business! Like, that?s it. It will likely end in tears and drama, but even then, that?s why we?re watching! I hope Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez beat all of the odds and they?re together for years and years. I want to see them at all of the Oscars from now on! I want them at the Met Gala every year! What?s kind of great about the revival is that, so far, Ben is playing along with her shtick. They?re getting tons of attention but it?s no longer about Gigli punchlines and matching orange fake-tans. And Ben wants to keep authentic:
Ben Affleck feels protective of his rekindled romance with Jennifer Lopez. A Hollywood insider tells PEOPLE in this weeks issue that the Gone Girl star, 51, has found someone who truly loves her for her.
Ben wants to protect what they have, adds the insider. And 17 years after breaking off their engagement, the couple are madly in love, the insider says.
A source close to Lopez and Affleck says the actor is very happy with Lopez and that shes wonderful for him.
They want to do everything they can to make this work, adds a Lopez source.
Of the connection between the Hustlers star and two-time Oscar winner, the Lopez source says: Even though their split many years ago was devastating for Jennifer, she has never had a bad word to say about Ben.
[From People]
Ben wants ?to protect what they have? is Ben telling J.Lo to ease up on the speculation that they?ll get married in a month and they?ll be together forever. He?s saying, we?re great, we?re fine, you don?t have to advertise our love. Or is that what he wants people to think? Because they have been advertising their love. And its been glorious and fun. But yes, this is the Affleck push-pull he loves the attention, but he hates that he loves the attention. He loves J.Lo but hates that she loves him.

The Bennifer Summer continues!! Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are not merely content to recreate their most iconic moments Butt-Rubbing Szn 4 Eva they also want to create new memories, new iconic moments. A Bennifer World Tour. For three days, Ben and Jen were on the yacht in the South of France and partying in St. Tropez. Now the yacht has taken them to Capri, where they went sight-seeing, posed for photos and did some shopping. TMZ noted how they seemed to be hamming it up for the paparazzi:
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are perfectly aligned and in step with one another as they continue their romantic Euro getaway to celebrate her birthday and we mean that literally.
TMZs obtained footage of the couple strolling through the quaint alleyways of Capri Tuesday where they seem to have landed after a pit stop in Saint-Tropez over the weekend. As you can see, they were hand-in-hand with their team fully surrounding them.
They didnt let that kill the mood though Bennifer went about their business, taking in the sights and leisurely enjoying the city.
Anyhoo eyewitnesses tell us it was quite the eventful day for them apparently, they stopped for a bite at a place called Ristorante Faraglioni but were told there didnt seem to be a whole lot of eating. Our sources on the ground say it was mostly them hamming it up for paps.
Were also told they popped into a jewelry store at one point but its unclear what, if anything, they bought. After that our sources say they hit up a vintage Chanel store. So, theyre definitely in vacation mode shopping, chillin and soaking in the atmosphere.
[From TMZ]
One man?s ?hamming it up for the paps? is another man?s love language. I think Ben and Jennifer both look relaxed and happy. They?re comfortable with the attention they?re getting and the chaos they?re ensuing. They are Leos, proud and tall.
Visually, they look great with each other right now too. Ben has easily lost 20 pounds in three months and he?s looking downright svelte. Did she put him on a diet??? LOL. Jen looks amazing too. I really want her straw tote. Versace, right? Her outfit is super-cute too.

Back in 2016, Jennifer Lopez was with? someone, maybe Casper Smart? Probably. And she was promoting something, maybe her Vegas residency. And she appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. Of course Cohen made her play ?Plead the Fifth,? and of course his second question was about Ben Affleck?s dumb phoenix back tattoo. Jennifer didn?t hold back, telling Cohen: ?Its awful. I mean, I would tell him that, like what are you doing? It has too many colors. His tattoos always have too many colors! They shouldnt be so colorful, you know what I mean? They should be, like, cooler.? Here?s the segment:
This was just a funny little thing and one of the few times J.Lo ever said anything critical about Ben in seventeen years. And to be fair, the phoenix back tattoo IS hideous and ?too colorful? and not cool in the least. J.Lo said what everyone was thinking. But now, five years later, Jennifer has to look at that back tattoo whenever she?s showering on the yacht with Ben. She has convinced him to keep his shirt on for all of their ?Jenny From the Block? recreation set-ups, so people are now 100% positive that Jennifer is probably trying to convince him to laser that sh-t off. If that?s what is happening, she?s doing the lord?s work.
Meanwhile, you know all of those photos Jennifer took on the yacht, with the big reveal of the Bennifer kiss? Well, there was a story we were missing: Ben gave her the jewelry she wore in those photos. From The Adventurine:
The chunky link chain, the multiple charms, the key?all the elements added up to Foundrae, a stunning collection of charms and chains that has been beloved by countless celebrities for years.
I reached out to Foundrae?s Creative Director and Co-Founder, Beth Bugdaycay, to confirm what I knew to be true. She said the jewels were in fact from the Foundrae collection. ?Ben wanted to get something really special for her birthday,? explains Beth. ?He wanted to put together a meaningful story.?
A symbolic jewelry narrative is what the Foundrae collection is all about. The symbols range from hearts to charms for your internal compass, karma, passion and many more.
[From The Adventurine]
Aw, that?s kind of nice? That?s one thing I?ve liked about Ben, he?s demonstrative in love, at least with J.Lo. He always loved buying her jewelry and gifts. It?s part of their love language.
Did Ben also give Jennifer this diamond ?B-E-N? necklace? HOT.

On Friday it occurred to me that there were no good updates on Bennifer the entire week. It was weird! Considering how much interest there is in the reunion of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, surely ?sources? would give weekly updates to People Magazine and Us Weekly, right? But it was complete radio silence? until Friday evening, when Bennifer went out to eat in Avra in Beverly Hills. According to photo agency Backgrid, Ben and J.Lo were trying to enter the restaurant through the quieter back entrance, only paparazzi swarmed them as they entered and exited. It looked like Ben drove them there, but then one of Jen?s security people drove them away. Apparently, they came in a Rolls Royce? Which means it was her ride, right? Does Ben have a Rolls? Oh God, was it the Rolls Royce which Ben gave J.Lo back in the day?!? OMG.
Oh, look at that, People Mag had an exclusive:
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are continuing to enjoy their time together. On Friday evening, Affleck, 48, and Lopez, 51, enjoyed a date night at Avra Beverly Hills Estiatorio, a source tells PEOPLE. There, the pair dined in a private room for two hours.
They enjoyed Mediterranean food in one of the private dining rooms. Jen looked amazing, the source says. They were both in a great mood. Ben always looks very happy when he is with Jen.
Adds a source close to Lopez, she spends as much time with Ben as possible.
[From People]
J.Lo?s manager Benny Medina shouting down the line at People, ?Say that Jennifer looked amazing!? I mean, of course she looks amazing. She?s J.Lo. Anyway, I?m glad they presumably spent the weekend together and I?m glad they gave us some paparazzi photos. Seeing Bennifer swarmed by paps as they go in a restaurant?s back entrance? well, it?s very ?eighteen years ago.? Jennifer looks so happy though, look at her. She looks relaxed and joyful. She?s thrilled to be back with Ben. God, I hope he doesn?t ruin it quite yet. I would love it if they made it through Thanksgiving. A Summer Bennifer and an Autumn Bennifer. Let the leaves fall from the trees and then I will allow Bennifer to be over. With every season, turn, turn, turn
