Ben Affleck’s acting prowess has been well-acclaimed. But his personal life, on the other hand, has always been a source of contention online. Currently, the actor is going through a divorce with pop icon Jennifer Lopez, and the media has already spotted him with another lady, suggesting that the Batman actor has already moved onto his next romantic interest.
The woman in question is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s daughter, Kathleen Kennedy. Further, after coming across her pictures online, several users have also brought forth Affleck’s dating pattern.
Fans Highlight Ben Affleck’s Continuous Dating Pattern
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez crossed paths on the set of Gigli in 2002. Soon, the duo started dating and later got engaged. What seemed like a perfect amalgamation of Hollywood and the music industry came crashing down in 2004 when they announced their split. After that, both of them moved on with their lives, with Affleck marrying actress Jennifer Garner.
But Affleck and Lopez got a second chance at romance after his subsequent divorce from Garner, and Lopez ending her relationship with Alex Rodriguez. They were soon spotted spending time together and later confirmed their relationship via an Instagram post. While everything seemed fine on the outside, beneath the surface, there were several cracks casting a dark shadow on their relationship.
Further, ending all speculation, the pop icon recently filed for divorce from the actor, citing irreconcilable differences and dropping Affleck from her surname. However, it now seems as if the actor has already moved on with Robert F. Kennedy’s daughter, Kathleen Kennedy.

Ben Affleck’s Past Relationships and Ex-Girlfriends
Ben Affleck stepped into the Hollywood spotlight in the ’80s, and along with his professional endeavors, the public has also been fascinated by his dating life. The Batman actor has been linked to some of the industry’s most beautiful and talented leading ladies. The first on this list would be short film director Cheyenne Rothman. Interestingly, the duo met in high school and dated for a period of seven years from 1990 to 1997.
After Rothman, Affleck began dating actress Gwyneth Paltrow in 1997. The duo had a very unsteady relationship and broke up several times over a period of three years, after which they eventually called it quits in 2000. One of Affleck’s most famous relationships was with pop icon Jennifer Lopez. The pair was dubbed Bennifer and was the talk of the town since they got together during the filming of Gigli.
But this relationship also ended in 2004, with the pair calling off their engagement. His longest relationship on the list would be with actress Jennifer Garner. While the ex-couple initially crossed paths during the filming of Pearl Harbor, it wasn’t until they worked together in Daredevil that sparks flew between them.
Eventually, they got married in 2005 and had three kids together. But due to Affleck’s issues with addiction, the couple separated in 2015 and legally divorced in 2018.
However, they remained good friends and are currently fully focused on the well-being of their children. After Garner, Affleck briefly dated Saturday Night Live producer Lindsay Shookus and Shauna Sexton, a veterinary technician and former Playboy model.
The next high-profile actress on the list would be Ana de Armas, with whom he worked on Deep Water. The duo was together during the pandemic but eventually ended things in early 2021. After de Armas, the Batman actor rekindled his romance with Jennifer Lopez.
