If People magazine reports it, it's not a rumor. They only post stuff with publicist approval or with rock-solid sources.

And I haven't seen any denial from Affleck/Shookus sources that the affair happened, just a denial that the affair was the cause of the end of their marriages, saying, "no marriage ends for any one reason."

Wow, you're delusional. They have both denied the timeline saying that they only started dating after their marriages had essentially ended. Just because Ben and Jen were publicly photographed with their kids doesn't mean their marriage hadn't already ended. I think he's a douche, but I also think she put him through the paces (publicly) to punish and control him.

Who cares who these people date? They're all a bunch of self-involved navel-gazing losers who contribute nothing to society beyond bad movies...and gossip fodder I suppose.

How'd you find DCUM, Ben?

The misogyny in this thread is ridiculous.

I agree with this 100%

I do too. I always felt like someone (his mom, maybe?) was telling him not to let Jen get away - she's the perfect wife and mother, wholesome, kind, etc. So he married her. But in almost every picture/video of the two of them together, he looks supremely annoyed by her.

I agree he never seemed all that into her but his career would have been over had he not married Garner, especially when she was pregnant. His career was hanging on by a thread after the Bennifer fiasco and marrying Jennifer2 made him appear lmore settled and stable.

What an appropriate last name.

The People article is odd, in that it gives equal space to the theory that they were having an affair when both still married and that they've only recently started dating. It doesn't really come down on one side or the other.

I will say it is nice to see Ben dating someone age-appropriate and who has a successful career in her own right. I have met Lindsay a few times and she is a very nice and engaging person. It must be difficult for her as a non-celebrity to suddenly be in the public eye and having her looks criticised all over the Internet.

+3
I was always surprised they got married.

+1 chop off her hair and she'd look like a man. Her face is harsh.

I mean he used to date JLO....One of the world's most beautiful woman!!!

How do you go from JLO -----> Plain Jane??!

I think JLo and Jen were demanding and superficial. I suspect someone who works at SNL is far more fun...probably a party-hard creative type who doesn't boss him around and is more fun in bed.

She looks like a mix between Jennifer Garner and Gwyneth Paltrow.

Apparently the new/old gf is the reason Garner and Afflleck actually divorced. Garner flew out to New York to confront the gf years ago and tell her to back off, but the gf said, "nope."

She is so not his type.

She looks like Kevin Bacon in a wig.

The mistress definitely looks hard-living and not sober. She looks like she could be kellyanne conways younger sister. I don't think J garner is all that pretty by compared to this one she is a stunner.

Matt Damon is Ben Affleck's best friend. I wonder if Lindsay and Ben have known each other even longer than 2013?

Hm, and it says she also played Jennifer Lopez's body double in a sketch...

Barely married when started the affair. https://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/13/fashion/weddings/13Shookus.html?smprod=nytcore-iphone&smid=nytcore-iphone-share
