AceShowbiz - Kate Beckinsale reportedly turns to Ben Affleck after splitting from her husband of 11 years, Len Wiseman. Kate and Ben, who reportedly had a brief fling after filming "Pearl Harbor" in 2001, have been spending time together following their respective splits.
Sources tell The Sun that a "spark" remains between Kate and Ben. "Kate used to be madly in love with Ben. He would make her giddy with excitement any time they were in the same room," one of the sources says, "She's turned to him for support as a friend because they've stayed in touch during her difficult time."
Friends of Kate and Ben are allegedly pushing for the couple to get together again. "Some of their friends have suggested that they're made for each other and should give a proper relationship a go," the source adds.
Kate's split news came after Len was spotted with a 24-year-old model named CJ Franco heading to The Nice Guy in Hollywood earlier this month. According to sources, the pair have been separated for several months but their relationship remains amicable.
A source told Us Weekly that Kate had been waiting until "Underworld: Next Generation" wraps up filming in late November "to talk to Wiseman in person and discuss whether or not they would formally file for divorce." She was allegedly "hurt" by Len going public with the young model as she had asked him to be "discreet" in the meantime.
"It is very hurtful to her that he is not being discreet," the source shared, "They haven't even been able to sit down and discuss divorcing yet and she asked him to wait until then. There is still a chance they won't, she was holding out to discuss their future with him in person."
