Did Fame Affect His Marriage with J.Lo?
Affleck and Lopez have always been in the public eye. Some say their different views on fame caused problems in their marriage. He admitted they see fame differently but said this was not the main issue.
“Jennifer is very good at handling fame. I am more private. But that was not the reason for any big problem,” he explained.
He also said he supports Lopez and respects her choices. “I respect Jennifer. I love and support her,” he said.
Clearing Up Rumors About Lopez
During his interview, Affleck made sure people understood his words correctly. He said there was no big drama in their relationship.
“People always try to find reasons why a relationship ends. But the truth is much simpler. It is just two people trying to live their lives,” he said.
His Thoughts on Fame and Paparazzi
Affleck has been in many viral photos, from looking sad to spilling coffee. But he doesn’t care too much about it.
“I don’t care if people take my picture. Some people think about it more, but I just want to get my coffee,” he joked.
His Time as Batman
Affleck played Batman in Justice League, but he said it was a hard time for him. He realized that his version of Batman was not right for younger fans.
“Even my son was too scared to watch the movie. That’s when I thought, ‘Oh no, this is a problem,’” he said.
