Matt Damon has reportedly found it challenging to support his long-time friend Ben Affleck during Affleck’s contentious divorce from Jennifer Lopez. According to an insider, Damon has been vocal about his disapproval of how Affleck has handled the separation, labeling his behavior as “cruel” and difficult to forgive. The split, which was initiated by Lopez after two years of marriage, has left tensions between the two Hollywood stars and has placed Damon in a tough position.
Damon, who has been close friends with both Affleck and Lopez, has been increasingly leaning towards supporting Lopez in the aftermath of the divorce. According to a source, Lopez has confided in Damon over recent weeks, finding comfort in his calm and understanding demeanor. “She’s found him to be a calming influence and hopes their friendship will last beyond the marriage,” the insider shared.
Damon and Lopez’s friendship strengthens
The friendship between Damon and Lopez has reportedly grown stronger, especially during the rollout of their latest film Unstoppable, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival. With Affleck noticeably absent from the event, Damon and Lopez were spotted sharing a heartfelt conversation, sparking rumors about Damon’s allegiance. Sources close to the actors stated that Lopez had opened up to Damon about her feelings, expressing how deeply hurt she has been by the divorce.
Affleck’s reaction to Damon’s criticism
Ben Affleck, on the other hand, hasn’t taken Damon’s criticism well. According to the source, Affleck feels frustrated by Damon’s stance, particularly given the long history between the two. “Ben is not taking it well at all,” the insider shared. “He feels that Matt should understand his position and not suggest he’s at fault. The situation has really rubbed Ben the wrong way.”
Caught in the middle, Damon is doing his best to maintain his friendship with both Lopez and Affleck, despite the growing tensions. However, as Lopez continues to rely on Damon for emotional support, it remains unclear whether Damon’s relationship with Affleck will emerge unscathed from the turmoil.
