Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Reunite at Their Kids’ Back-to-School Night After Kissing at Brunch

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are once again hanging out together amid their divorce. The former couple reportedly linked up during a “back-to-school” night for their kids earlier this week, and TMZ sources say they were “totally cool with each other and very cordial.” However, said sources *also* say “they’re not rekindling anything” and are “still getting divorced.”

I mean, okay, but now seems like a good time to bring up the fact that just last week, the celebs were spotted engaging in PDA during brunch. According to an insider who spoke to Page Six at the time,“Ben and J.Lo are currently at the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel holding hands and kissing. The kids are with them but at a separate table.”

Oh, and ANOTHER person close to the sitch told the outlet that Ben simply “could not keep his hands off” his ex once they were together, adding that the two “have always had a lot of sexual chemistry.” Meanwhile, their lunch kiss “was not planned,” but they are “still attracted to one another,” so it was kinda inevitable.

ICYMI, Ben and Jen are about to start promoting their new movie Unstoppable, and apparently, they want to project an amicable relationship to the world. That! Said!!! This idea is allegedly mostly coming from Ben. Per that ^ same source, “It was Ben Affleck’s idea to meet there. He wanted to show that they are friendly exes. He wanted those photos. You go there when you want to be seen. Paparazzi hang out there.”

TL;DR: The plot thickens! Like, it’s honestly so thick, I’m not sure how much more can fit. 😬
