‘Ted Lasso’ Star’s Girlfriend on ‘High Alert’ Jennifer Lopez Might Spark Romance With Her Man, Source Says
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck were the center of celebrity attention in 2024. Two years after they tied the knot, Lopez served divorce papers to Affleck in August 2024. She now claims she’s not looking for a serious relationship and wants to focus on herself. However, her future work with Ted Lasso star Brett Goldstein allegedly worries Goldstein’s girlfriend.
‘Ted Lasso’ star Brett Goldstein’s girlfriend is allegedly worried that he might spark up a romance with Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez doesn’t have a great relationship track record. She’s been married four times and engaged six times. Lopez thought she and Ben Affleck were meant to be, as they initially planned an engagement in the early 2000s. Their relationship didn’t work out, and they went their separate ways with other romances. However, they rekindled their flame in 2021 and tied the knot in 2022. Two years later, they again discovered why they didn’t get married 20 years ago.
While Lopez’s romantic life isn’t going well in 2024, she continues to make big career moves. She and two-time Ted Lasso Emmy winner Brett Goldstein are pairing up for the rom-com Office Romance. Goldstein and Joe Kelly are co-writing the movie which Lopez will likely star in.
Goldstein’s girlfriend, Beth Rylance, allegedly has reservations about Lopez working with Goldstein. “Beth Rylance is on high alert about J.Lo’s famously flirtatious past, especially following her split from Ben Affleck,” a source told Life & Style. “Even though she’s been with Brett since 2021, she’s worried about the potential chemistry — given J.Lo’s history of turning co-stars into lovers!”
Goldstein confirmed his romance to Rylance in September 2021. However, some current sources suggest he and Rylance split in 2022. If he and Rylance no longer date, this could definitely open the door to a possible romance with Lopez.
Jennifer Lopez is allegedly ready to date after her divorce from Ben Affleck
While Jennifer Lopez doesn’t want to start a serious romance so quickly after her divorce from Ben Affleck, a source told In Touch Weekly that she’s ready to get back into the dating scene. In late October 2024, she looked sensational while stepping onto the red carpet for Unstoppable, a film she stars in and Affleck produced.
“Obviously she’s showing Ben what he’s missing,” the source explained. “She’s also sending a message to all the men out there: She’s never looked — or felt — better, and she’s ready to date again. … She’s not looking for a serious relationship — for now — but she is looking to have some fun.”
The insider added that Lopez feels done with “sulking” over Affleck. “The breakup with Ben really shook her up,” they explained. “She was devastated and put on a brave face in the weeks following the split. But then something shifted. She picked herself up and decided to move on.”
Ben Affleck has new dating rules for himself as he moves forward
Jennifer Lopez might be open to diving back into the dating pool — and so is Ben Affleck. A source told Life & Style that the Gone Girl actor has a new set of rules for himself regarding who he dates.
“Ben is looking for someone who’s either in recovery or at least someone who understands the Alcoholics Anonymous program,” the source alleged. “He’s learned the hard way that if he wants a relationship to last and be healthy, he needs to surround himself with like-minded people, and that includes his future partner.”
The insider added that Affleck hopes to date someone who will “support” his “boundaries” surrounding alcohol. It seems Lopez’s cocktail brand, Delola, might’ve served as a source of contention.
