Ben Affleck furious at Jennifer Lopez amid plastic surgery confirmation

Ben Affleck’s recent appearance has sparked rumors of plastic surgery after fans noticed his absence from the 2024 Met Gala, where his wife Jennifer Lopez made a solo entrance. The notable absence of Affleck from the red carpet left Bennifer fans disappointed and questioning why he was not by Lopez’s side at the high-profile event.

Shortly after the gala, rumors began circulating about Affleck’s changed appearance, suggesting he may have undergone cosmetic procedures. His noticeably smoother skin and youthful look stirred speculation among fans and tabloids alike. However, no official statements have been made to confirm or deny these rumors.

Amid the buzz surrounding the Met Gala and the rumors about Affleck’s appearance, an insider shared with In Touch Weekly that the actor is reportedly upset with Lopez due to what he perceives as her controlling behavior. According to the source, Affleck feels that Lopez has been dictating many aspects of his life, and her intense involvement in planning their public appearances left him feeling sidelined.

Speaking of the actor’s latest Netflix appearance, a tipster revealed to the outlet, “Ben’s comedy roast of Tom Brady seems to have backfired.” “He was coming for the public’s negative social media comments towards Tom but ended up igniting a firestorm about his own appearance,” they even added.

The source even claimed, “He’s furious because he’s getting slammed for fillers and Botox that Jen pushed him to get.” They also addressed, “Ben’s upset with Jen because if it wasn’t for her he would never get work done, but she’s convinced him that everybody in Hollywood does a little facial maintenance, including his good friends, like Matt Damon.” As per the insider, the Daredevil alum “takes responsibility for agreeing to certain procedures, but from now on he says he wants to age gracefully.” 

The insider claimed, “Ben is upset with Jennifer for her controlling behavior. He felt like he was being micromanaged regarding their appearance at the Met Gala, and it led to tension between them.” This reported tension may explain Affleck’s absence from the event, despite Lopez’s stunning solo appearance on the red carpet. Dressed in a glamorous Ralph Lauren ensemble, Lopez captivated the crowd and paparazzi, but fans couldn’t help but notice the absence of her husband.

Their relationship has always been in the spotlight, from their initial romance in the early 2000s to their rekindled love two decades later. They tied the knot in 2022, nearly 20 years after their original engagement was called off. Since then, the couple has been inseparable at major events, which made Affleck’s absence at the Met Gala particularly conspicuous.

Despite the rumors and reports of tension, Affleck and Lopez have consistently portrayed a united front. They’ve frequently spoken about their blended family and how they’re navigating their relationship amid their busy careers. Both Affleck and Lopez have children from previous relationships, and they have often emphasized the importance of prioritizing family.

Lopez has previously described Affleck as a supportive partner who understands her demanding career. In an interview, she stated, “He’s an amazing father and partner, and we’re making it work. We both have busy lives, but we always make time for each other.”

Meanwhile, Affleck, who has been candid about his struggles with addiction and mental health, found renewed strength and stability in his relationship with Lopez. In interviews, he has often credited her with helping him become a better person and navigate the challenges of Hollywood.

Regardless of the rumors and speculation, both stars remain focused on their careers and family. Affleck is set to release several upcoming projects, while Lopez continues to expand her empire in music, film, and business.
