Has Ben Affleck caught Jennifer Aniston's eye?!
According to the latest media reports, the actor might also be of interest to his colleague. We're talking about Jennifer Aniston. As an "In Touch" informant reports, the "Friends" star is impressed with Ben. It’s worth mentioning that the actors have already worked together in the past on a romantic comedy. According to the informant, "they still remember each other."
Jen has definitely had a mini crush on Ben for years, but he’s always been in these very serious, long-term relationships during that time. But change is in the air [...] As things pretty openly wind down between J. Lo and Ben, there’s a real opportunity for Jen [Aniston] to make up for lost time with Ben. [...] They’ve never really been single at the same time before, and Jen has been a true-blue fan of Ben’s for decades — said a source close to Jennifer Aniston.
The informant also noted that through their joint work on the film set, there is a "very friendly" line of communication between Aniston and Affleck. They also share quite a few mutual friends. Apparently, Sandra Bullock "completely sees Ben and Jen as a couple in the future." Visual aspects also come into play.
Ben really is exactly Jen’s type: he’s an overachiever, he’s self-made, he’s still culturally relevant, and he’s still handsome as hell," the source notes. "But Jen has had these unrequited crushes before — several times since she and Brad Pitt split up — and it’s always been tricky for her to turn them into something real — the informant added bitterly in an interview with the "In Touch" editorial team.
