A news site recently claimed Ben Affleck is interested in Angelina Jolie and may be trying to “woo” her. A close friend once asked Ben who his favorite movie star is, and he replied, “Angelina Jolie.”
Affleck, Jennifer Lopez’s ex-husband, has publicly praised Jolie, calling her smart, talented, and attractive. He admires her transition into directing and believes they’d have much to discuss if they dined together. Sources say they share similar values, both being family-oriented with children from previous relationships, and often have warm encounters at Hollywood events.
Neither has confirmed dating rumors. Affleck recently ended his marriage with Lopez amicably, while Jolie has remained private since her 2016 divorce from Brad Pitt.
Meanwhile, public attention remains on Jolie’s children. Shiloh, her first biological daughter, was seen leaving dance class, showing off a small Gemini tattoo. Twins Vivienne and Knox were spotted dining out, with Knox gaining attention for his height and looks. Jolie has said one of her sons recently moved to New York, leaving her facing “empty nest” feelings.
Her adopted son Maddox, known for inspiring her flying hobby, remains private. Jolie revealed on The Tonight Show that Maddox is now training as a pilot, possibly living in a New York home she bought in her twenties, though she didn’t confirm if it’s Maddox or Pax residing there.
