Just one week after Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from Ben Affleck, the Hollywood actor has been spotted spending time with a new woman, who appears to have a striking resemblance to one of his ex-wives. 

While JLo, 55, and Ben, 52, have been keeping a low profile since the end of their two-year marriage, it seems the Air actor has found solace in a new friendship. 

Reports claim the star has been seen at the Polo Lounge, Beverly Hills Hotel and other popular venues in the Los Angeles area with Kathleen ‘Kick’ Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s daughter. 

The exact nature of the relationship between the 36-year-old and Ben remains unknown; however, Page Six has reported that they are ‘hanging out’. 

It’s not known how the two became friends, but it’s likely they run in the same circles as Kick, who is a philanthropist and activist, also has a keen interest in the entertainment world. 

The Stanford University grad’s IMDB page lists her as an actress and writer, having appeared in Fear and Loathing in Aspen and the TV show The Newsroom.

Ben’s new friendship appears to have caught the attention of fans, who were quick to point out that Kick has strikingly similar to his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, whom he remains close friends with. 

Ben and Jennifer wed in 2005 and split 13 years later in 2018 after welcoming three children, Violet, 18, Fin, 15 and Samuel, 12.

They continue to co-parent and were most recently spotted together on the day JLo filed for divorce after dropping Violet at Yale University for her freshman year.

Taking to X, many shared their thoughts on Kick’s similarities to Jennifer, with xelocin writing: ‘Oh so Ben Affleck was still chasing the Jen Garner illusion of happiness here. Kick Kennedy seen here looking like a splitting image of Mrs Jennifer Affleck I in this.’

Polyh3dron added: ‘Kick looks like a young Jennifer Garner’. 

‘This is crazy! Ok so I was surprised to see that Kick looks a lot like Jennifer Garner with bright lipstick’, KsKM3 wrote. 

But that’s not the only connection Kick has to Ben. In a past interview with the New York Post, she revealed that she and her grandmother are fans of Marc Anthony, JLo’s ex-husband. 

‘My grandmother’s really into [the singer] Marc Anthony. When he called and said he was in town, she invited him to dinner. Everyone dressed up and got excited, because we all love him,’ she said. 

JLo’s divorce filing from Ben comes after months of speculation about the former couple’s relationship status.

The document, seen by BBC, states that Jennifer or her attorney need to notify Ben of her petition to dissolve their marriage.

TMZ reported that the date of separation was April 26, 2024, but the day on which JLo filed for divorce is the second anniversary of the second ceremony – August 20—they held in Georgia, which followed their initial wedding service in Las Vegas just two months before that.

This is the second time giving their romance a chance as they were first engaged in the early 2000s and called off their marriage days before their wedding. 

They reconciled in 2021 after their respective marriages ended.
