Jennifer Lopez's Birthday Post Has The Internet Buzzing
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's recent romantic reunion still has fans buzzing. The two lovebirds can't seem to keep their hands off of each other (via TMZ) and have been spotted looking happily in love since the reports of their rekindled relationship hit the internet in late April. The couple, who is known as "Bennifer," is said to be head over heels with one another the second time around, and are taking their relationship very seriously.
Affleck and Lopez are reported to be "madly in love" and believe that they are the "loves of each other's lives," a source told People earlier this month. "Even though their split many years ago was devastating for Jennifer, she has never had a bad word to say about Ben. She believes that it just wasn't meant to be then and feels like they've been given a second chance," the insider added.
Meanwhile, sources tell Us Weekly that the pair are aware of the criticism surrounding their romance. "The past few months have been a real whirlwind. They're well aware some cynics still look at it as a big flashy attention grab and roll their eyes at the speed of it all, but it doesn't faze them one iota. They're fully committed to taking the next steps and spending the rest of their lives together," the informant dished. This week, Lopez and Affleck finally made their romance social media official and sent fans into a frenzy.
Ben & Jen show some major PDA on social media
Us Weekly reports that Jennifer Lopez celebrated her 52nd birthday this week and Ben Affleck was right by her side. The "Hustlers" star posted a sweet and sexy slideshow (to Twitter and Instagram) in honor of her special day as well. In the photos, J.Lo rocked a teeny bikini to show off her gym-honed bod. In another pic she snuggled up to Affleck as he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her on the lips. "5 2 ... what it do ..." Lopez captioned the post, adding a red heart emoji. Of course, fans had a lot to say about the steamy PDA photo of the singer with her beau.
"OMG BENNIFER IS BACK! Happy bday Queen! Enjoy your day," one Twitter user wrote. "It's simple. Ben is her person. He always has been. All her fans know she never got over him. She never stopped loving Ben so when they reconnected all her suppressed feelings came rushing to the surface," another person commented. "I'm happy that you're happy! Live, love and dance again Jen! You know how to be self-fulfilled/whole, regardless if you happen to be with someone or not," another fan tweeted. "Maybe the timing wasn't right when they were together before and there was a reason for them getting back together now. I am happy for them," another comment read.
It looks like J.Lo is fully embracing her age as well as her rekindled romance with Affleck and is letting everyone know it with her most recent post.
