Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck may have gone their separate ways romantically, but their latest public appearance together is stirring major backlash online.
The former couple, who finalized their divorce in August last year, shocked fans when they reunited on the red carpet for the premiere of Kiss of the Spider Woman — a musical drama starring Lopez and produced by Affleck.
Despite their split, the two appeared side by side, smiling for cameras and exchanging polite words. But not everyone was impressed. Many fans took to social media, calling the reunion “uncomfortable” and “tone-deaf.”
Lopez even took a moment during the premiere to thank her ex-husband.
“Thank you so much, thank you everybody for being here tonight. Thank you, Ben — this movie wouldn’t have been made without you and without Artist Equity,” she said to the crowd.
The gesture, however, only added fuel to the fire.
