Rumors have swirled about a romance between Affleck and Kennedy.

One insider told The Daily Mail: "Ben should have said nothing ... He tried to erase Kick from his existence, and it was just not fair for her, or for anyone who knows her."

"He is trying to pull the 'I don't know her' card but what he failed to realize is that they weren't the only two people in the world that knew that they used to hook up, or that they were hanging out again", the source continued.

"He fears that this will affect his divorce and, even though there was no overlap, saying he didn't even know her was not the right move."
