August 2024 · 4 minute read

A lot of questionable trends from the early 2000s have been making a comeback lately. But it's the Bennifer reunion that's got people the most divided. It wasn't that long since Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez split.  A lot of fans are somewhat bothered by the fact that first, JLo, a stunning bombshell got back with an ex. Second, they think she's a grown woman with two kids who should know better. Third, well many fans think the public display of affection is just corny. Here's what fans truly think about Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's current relationship.

They Think It's Too Much For JLo's Kids

Rumors are that JLo is already house-hunting in Los Angeles to live closer to Ben Affleck. She's also been looking at schools for her twins. It's quite a swift and big move, right? Well, some fans aren't shocked anymore. They say that at this point, they're already used to the Let's Get Loud singer not managing to be single for a long time. However, many fans have expressed their concerns for the singer's children with ex-husband Marc Anthony.

The kids have been out a lot with Affleck. Fans worry that it's too soon to be introducing yet another stepfather that might not stick around long. Those are pretty valid concerns, for sure. Some fans even cited that JLo's daughter dying her hair blue and cutting her hair might be a sign of distress. Many people on Twitter are calling out the 51-year-old singer for being so "vain" and "conceited" for parading her love life in public with the kids around.

Fans Think It's A PR Stunt

This is an interesting theory. We all know how Hollywood tends to go overboard with these publicity stunts. But to do all this just to promote the Selena star's new movie? Does she even need the extra hype? Well, if this isn't a PR stunt, getting back with an ex under her specific circumstances is still not looking good. If it really is, that's still not the best thing to expose the kids to. Also, way to break the fans' hearts.

Many skeptics on Twitter are starting to wonder why the couple has been getting caught in such perfect moments. For instance, they think all those smooching pictures have got to be staged. Either Bennifer doesn't care anymore about locking lips so shamelessly in public or their PR company orchestrated everything. We'll probably know more once that movie comes out.

Wendy Williams Also Thinks It's Too Much

Wendy Williams showed this video of Bennifer making out in public during her Hot Topics segment in The Wendy Williams Show. Williams said that with all that "slobbing down," they should get a room. It was during JLo's sister Lynda Lopez's birthday, after all. The talk show host agrees that it looks staged as well. Williams pointed out how "aggressive" JLo was in grabbing the Justice League star's head, obviously not hiding behind the bushes and proving that it wasn't at all spontaneous PDA.

Of course, she also weighed in on the fans' concerns about the children. "I just think it's all too soon,?" Wendy Williams said on her show. "You know these kids are too young to be meeting mom's new boo thing. They don't really know who Ben is. Like they weren't even born at that particular time." The talk show added that this is not a nice image for the pop star's kids to see—"all making out and flipping men all the time." Like the supervising producer of the show, Norman Baker told Williams, she is not wrong...
