Ben Affleck is enjoying his bachelor life but hasn’t ruled out the possibility of future relationships. And not just with anyone: the “Batman” star has sparked rumors of a romance with Angelina Jolie. The media is already speculating about the potential of their relationship.
It’s said that when one of his friends asked who his “ideal star” was, Ben named Angelina Jolie. Although Angie has repeatedly stated that she is focused on raising her six children, this hasn’t stopped Ben. An insider says that Affleck has always admired Jolie’s beauty and inner strength.
He has always found her incredibly attractive and respects how she balances her career and personal life, according to sources.
He particularly values her work as a director, given that he has also directed films like The Town and Argo.
So, while there is no romance between Jolie and Affleck—at least for now—the media suggests that the two stars share a lot of common ground, even a dinner where they could discuss it. Additionally, they are almost the same age: Ben is 52, Angelina is 49. They’re at a similar point in their lives, which might only make mutual understanding easier.
And though both have had relationships with other Hollywood stars, only time will tell whether something more than mutual respect will develop between them.
