Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez may technically be in a long-distance relationship, but the arrangement is clearly working for the two — so far.
While the pair spend time apart, they’ve also managed to rendezvous multiple times since news broke of their rekindled romance, including in Montana, Miami and Los Angeles.
“They will continue to travel back and forth between Los Angeles and Miami," an insider told People. “They are very happy together” and “slowly starting to talk about the future.”
“This is not a casual relationship,” the source said, adding, “They are taking it seriously and want it to be long-lasting.”
Though the couple started dating in 2002 and split in January 2004, time appears to have made their hearts grow fonder and connection stronger.
“She’s 51 and has always put importance on chemistry,” an insider told Page Six. “She’s wondering how many times lightning can strike. She feels like he has grown since they were together.”
