More likely the other way around.


Did they not discuss this before moving in together?



He strikes me as overly impulsive and she as immature, so maybe not. Or maybe in the throes of infatuation his LA mansion looked great to her, but after being locked in there with a middle-aged dude with 3 kids, it got old.


PP here. Page six is reporting that they indeed split over having children - she wants them, he won’t commit to having more. She probably moved in thinking it was possible he’d come around.




Interesting, I wouldn't have guessed it but makes sense that she wouldn't hang around too long if that's what she wants.

If this is true, I give him credit for not jumping into a new family given what he inflicted on his first one. Maybe he's maturing.

She is in her early thirties and coming off of a successful film. She meets Ben and the two fall in love. They look smitten and are seen frequently in public. Ben is all over her and she posts pictures of him all over her social media. She is seen hanging out with his kids and it is revealed Jen has a cordial relationship with her. She then moved in with Ben. A few months later, they break up.

It would appear that while they were smitten with each other, she was expecting something serious and he, in the midst of his recovery from mental health and alcohol issues, wanted to slow down. He likely isn’t ready for a new baby or a serious commitment at this phase in his life.

Who knows but...just a casual observers observation.


yeah, it looks like she wanted something permanent (marriage, baby) and he didn't.

Nothing to do with babies and everything to do with work.

He apparently is involved in "three projects" you know this means his head is in the game, for work, not girlfriends.

She is seeing who he really is, finally after months of quarantine and no work - he is someone who compartmentalizes and puts his everything into the one thing in front of him. It is no longer her. That is all.

Who he really is? A hardworking, successful member of the industry, while this nobody remains a nobody? That is certainly all, lol.

PP. Sorry I just really love Ben's work and feel he is unfairly attacked.

Not PP. Ana is very in demand right now and on her way to being an A lister. I think Ben is very talented particularly as a director. I really liked the Town, Gone Baby Gone, and Argo. However, seems like a lot of his more recent things have underperformed. Like Live by Night and the Batman movies. You can only do that a few times before it starts impacting your career especially when you have a well-known history of alcoholism and some “me too” type issues.

Insightful post. I remember the US Magazine article saying she has a tendency to pick immature fights with him. I don't see him putting up with that when he's in work mode. And if she was looking for more attention and reassurance, I could see that spiraling quickly.

I'm happy for her....Ben is not husband or baby daddy material, that much is clear.

Hopefully he stays single and works on himself and work for a while. He's definitely far from being in the clear in terms of his addictions.

It is a great shame that Lindsay Shookus didn't work out.

If they stay broken up it shows tremendous maturity on both their parts...why do I have a feeling they will come back to each other and have a baby?
