AceShowbiz - Ben Affleck's representative has officially refuted claims that the actor is dating Kick Kennedy after rumors circulated shortly following his split from Jennifer Lopez. "There is no truth to any of it. I don't know if they even know each other," Jen Allen, Affleck's spokesperson, stated to PEOPLE.
The dating speculation emerged after sources reported that Affleck and Kick, 36, had been "spending time together" since late spring. However, an insider asserted that the pair may not even be acquainted.
Affleck's current focus is on finalizing his divorce from Lopez, who filed last week, citing April 26 as their separation date. Sources close to Lopez have indicated that she is "doing as well as she can" despite the difficulties of the situation.
Affleck is also reportedly "doing well" and "very focused" after Lopez's divorce filing. "He thrives when he has work projects. He's been great when it comes to the kids too. He's doing exactly what he wants," a source revealed.
Prior to his relationship with Lopez, Affleck was married to Jennifer Garner from 2005 to 2018, with whom he shares three children. Lopez, on the other hand, is the mother of 16-year-old twins with ex-husband Marc Anthony. She was also married to Cris Judd and Ojani Noa in the past. Before reconciling with Affleck, she was engaged to Alex Rodriguez.
