It is rare for two mega-movie stars to be friends amidst chaos and chatter about competition! But, for more than three decades, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon have been friends even before they entered the film industry. The two stars grew up in the same neighborhood in Cambridge, Massachusetts. After entering the film industry, Ben and Matt collaborated on several projects, including ‘Good Will Hunting’ and ‘Air’.
While Matt Damon has supported Ben Affleck throughout their friendship, he could not stand Ben’s relationship with Jennifer Lopez. The famous Bennifer affair came into the limelight again after a decade when the couple got engaged but separated after two years in 2004. However, in 2022, the couple got married. But the paparazzi pictures and media reports are saying that there is turbulence in the love paradise, and Matt is done with JLo bossing Ben around.
Matt Damon Has Been Against ‘Bennifer 2.0’
In April 2022, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck sent the Bennifer shippers into a frenzy after announcing their engagement after a decade of getting engaged for the first time. It was followed by a wedding in Las Vegas in July 2022. While everyone was happy for the couple, the marriage seemed to be going through a tough time, judging from the paparazzi pictures of Affleck and Lopez.
Matt Damon, Ben Affleck’s best friend, is done with the relationship, and he has bad blood with the popstar. As per OK! Magazine, Damon had serious reservations about the reignition of love between the ‘Gigli’ co-stars.
The insiders said, “Matt’s had serious reservations about Bennifer 2.0 since the beginning. He’s tried to be publicly supportive for Ben’s sake, but the fact is he hates the way J.Lo treats his buddy and can no longer hold his tongue!”
Matt Damon is against the ‘Get on the Floor’ singer’s controlling behavior towards the ‘Air’ co-star. “It’s obvious something needs to change, but when Matt started giving Ben advice, he totally blew up. It feels like history repeating itself because 20 years ago, they stopped talking for the exact same reason.” Matt is ready to lose his friendship with Ben to confront Jennifer Lopez.
