Sorry It still screams PR stunt. Vegas wedding? Post wedding photo from bed? Newsletter announcement? Only in hollyweird.

Her poor kids.



Eh, this is nothing new for her kids. They've seen it all. I think the VF pic of Arod with his hand on her mostly-bare ass was worse. I feel for his kids though. They seem much more sheltered, but at least they have refuge with their classy mom. Will be interesting to see if the two Affleck girls can blend into the latest family iteration. This must be hard for them.

On the one hand, I think it's totally tacky to post this. On the other, I must admit she looks phenomenal, so happy, pretty, and glowy.

I hope Jen G popped a bottle of excellent champagne and toasted to the fact that he is officially someone else's problem now.

I realize that's sexist, but he seems very needy and she seems drawn to men that are. Ben is probably a little better than Marc Anthony or A-Rod, but still.

I do wish them the best.


Why doesn’t he have to downshift and make the relationship a priority?



I think like a PP said, she's usually busier than he is.

Good points but a key question is will both accept being less relevant and be able to shift focus to family life vs. always chasing the awards etc. He seems more willing to live a lower-key life than she, but she does seem madly in love with him so maybe(?)


I don’t think he can really live a low key life at all. When he gets bored or feels down on himself, he crashes. I hope he breaks that cycle because addiction and self affliction are horrible demons. Jlo doesn’t seem like the type who will take aging out of the limelight gracefully, albeit in a more self absorbed way. It would be impressive if they could make it work. What would he considered a success? Brangelina was together for over a decade before they broke up- while they didn’t last forever they certainly outlasted my expectations of what seemed like a lust fueled relationship. Ben and Jlo may not last forever but I’m not sure that’s exactly the benchmark of success in Hollywood.

Why would they have to ‘shift’ towards family life? All their kids are teens. If anything more independent than ever. This is a fine time to do whatever they want although both are practically retired in their respective fields anyway.


Samuel Affleck is 10.


The one that Ben let drive and crash his car? Maybe the other Jen is better off with full custody.
