Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, love in Venice: the kiss on the red carpet
The pop star and the actor send the Film Festival into a frenzy at the premiere of "The Last Duel": the couple's first official public release this summer, with the photo that definitively establishes the reunion. The Bennifers are back!
Him with a black tuxedo, flawless. She in a white dress, with a plunging neckline. A few minutes after 9 pm when Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez get out of the car that took them to the Palazzo del Cinema from the landing stage of the Hotel Excelsior. One last look before getting off, the objectives all focused on the doors of the dark car: spotlights to the maximum, the fans shouting the names of their favorites.
Here they are, on the red carpet. Seventeen years after that sudden goodbye when the wedding seemed to be done. Jennifer looks at Ben with her eyes in love, then at the kiss that sends Venice into a frenzy. They have chosen the Venice Film Festival - where the American actor presents "The Last Duel", Ridley Scott's latest film - to make their (new) official debut, after a crazy summer of gossip.
The first indiscretion dates back to four months ago: in early May, in fact, Page Six reveals that, according to his sources, Affleck would have started going back to the Lopez house. In secret, moreover, by being picked up in a parking lot by the staff of the pop star. "Absurd," the skeptics reply. But a few days later they are paparazzi at the airport, returning from a romantic weekend in Montana.
From that moment the gossip goes crazy, the two become the special observers. They are surprised in Miami on the same balcony, then during a Malibu dinner, complete with a stolen kiss. The weeks pass, they no longer hide: they stroll embraced on Long Island and decide to go on vacation together, between the Cote d'Azur and the Neapolitan archipelago. It's time for the social debut.
The images on the yacht go around the world. J.Lo then flies to Venice, where she is the absolute protagonist of the sumptuous Dolce & Gabbana fashion show. "Where is Ben?" The fans ask her. It was the perfect opportunity to finally sanction the reunion, in the city of love. Appointment only postponed for about ten days: the worldwide kiss leaves no room for reruns. Now we can say: the Bennifers are back!
