Ben Affleck’s spokeswoman is denying rumors that the actor is dating Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s daughter Kick Kennedy in the wake of Jennifer Lopez’s divorce filing.

“The rumors are not true,” Affleck’s representative Jen Allen told Fox News Digital.

Allen also denied the dating rumors in a statement to People Magazine. “There is no truth to any of it. I don’t know if they even know each other,” she told People on Affleck’s behalf.

Furthermore, on August 27, Affleck’s representative told US Weekly, “There is no truth to any of it. I don’t know if they even know each other. Ben is not dating anyone.” Page Six also quoted Affleck’s rep as saying, “This is not true. They are not hanging out.”

However, those comments came after reports by People and Page Six that Affleck and Kennedy, 36, have been spending time together.

TMZ reported on August 20 that Lopez, 55, had filed for divorce after two years of marriage to the “Argo” actor, 52. According to TMZ, she is not seeking spousal support and filed the action without a lawyer.

People Magazine reported that Affleck and Kick Kennedy have been “spending time together,” reporting that a source told the publication the two have “been linked since late spring.”

According to TMZ, Lopez’s divorce filing dated her separation from Affleck to April 26.

However, Page Six also reported that Kennedy and Affleck were first linked in 2020 when they “started hanging out” before his relationship with Ana de Armas.

“Their friendship has been going on for a while, even before Ana,” a source told Page Six. “When Ben started seeing Ana in 2020 and chose to quarantine with her during Covid, Kick was less than thrilled.”

A source added to Page Six, “Affleck would love nothing more than to be part of the Kennedy clan. It’s a dream for any Boston guy . . . I think he would rather have that than a billion-dollar, red-carpet glam life with J. Lo.”
