In the midst of Ben Affleck’s high-profile divorce from Jennifer Lopez, new rumors have surfaced, linking the 52-year-old actor to a surprising new name: Kick Kennedy, the 36-year-old daughter of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Emily Ruth Black. This unexpected report has certainly raised eyebrows, sparking questions about whether the two are romantically involved.
According to an unverified claim first reported by Page Six, Affleck has been seen with Kick Kennedy at several prominent spots in Beverly Hills, including the famous Polo Lounge. These sightings have ignited speculation about the nature of their relationship, especially as Affleck navigates the fallout of his separation from Lopez. However, the details remain murky, and neither party has confirmed or denied the rumors.
When asked for comment, representatives for Affleck remained silent, while Kennedy also declined to comment on the swirling rumors. The lack of response has only fueled further curiosity, leaving many to wonder what might be going on behind the scenes.
Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck on August 20, marking the end of their nearly two-year marriage. The news of their split came as a shock to many fans, and since then, various details about the reasons behind their separation have started to emerge. Amid the chaos, the idea of Affleck already moving on with someone new has added another layer of intrigue to the story.
Several sources have weighed in on the rumors surrounding Affleck and Kennedy, offering conflicting accounts of their supposed relationship. One source, speaking to People, suggested that the two have indeed been spending time together. “Kick and Ben have been spending time together, but I’m not sure what’s happening,” the source shared, adding that Kennedy has long harbored a celebrity crush on Affleck. According to this source, Kick is known for being a “partier” who “likes to have a good time,” which could explain the pair’s alleged outings together.
However, not everyone is convinced that there’s something romantic going on. A second source flatly denied the rumors, stating, “I don’t think they even know each other. There’s definitely nothing going on.” This stark contrast in reports has only deepened the mystery, making it difficult to discern what the true nature of Affleck and Kennedy’s relationship might be.
Adding to the confusion, another insider claimed that Affleck and Kennedy have been “spending time together” since the spring, though the specifics of their interactions remain unclear. With multiple sources offering differing perspectives, it’s hard to pin down what’s really happening between the two.
Meanwhile, RFK Jr., Kick’s father, has also been in the news recently after suspending his presidential campaign and endorsing Donald Trump. The Kennedy family’s storied legacy and high-profile connections have always attracted public attention, and Kick’s rumored involvement with Affleck is only adding to the media frenzy.
As of now, it’s anyone’s guess whether Affleck and Kennedy are more than just acquaintances. For now, fans and followers of both Affleck and Kennedy will have to stay tuned to see if there are any further developments in this intriguing story.
Jennifer Lopez has listed April 26, 2024, as the official date of her separation from Affleck.
