Ben Affleck revealed Jennifer Lopez’s thoughts on his lack of social media and how it ties in to his previous marriage.
, published on Thursday , and gushed about the guidance that the “Let’s Get Loud” singer has been able to provide him with after a few difficult years in the public eye.When asked about his absence from social media — and why he chooses to stay offline — Affleck remarked, “My wife’s a genius at that. I don’t know if there’s anybody who understands Instagram better than her.”
The two-time Oscar winner added that Lopez came to a few conclusions regarding why he keeps his life out of the public eye. “She thinks that because of experiences that I’ve had, I’ve become very guarded. And she’s right. I view these things as landmines, where if you say one wrong thing, your career might be over,” Affleck mused.
“To be clear, my behavior is my responsibility entirely. The point that I was trying to make was a sad one,” the 50-year-old said in the newinterview. “I was trying to say, ‘Hey, look, I was drinking too much, and the less happy you become, whether it’s your job, your marriage, it’s just that as your life becomes more difficult, if you’re doing things to fill a hole that aren’t healthy, you’re going to start doing more of those things.
Lopez, however, supports him despite the recent events. Affleck continued, “[She] tells me today, ‘Relax, be yourself. Have fun. You’re actually a fun guy who is real and genuine and you just seem so serious.’ Do I seem serious? But as in many things, she’s really right. And she loves me. She’s looking out for me. She’s trying to help me. So it’s like, maybe I ought to f–king listen to her.”.
