  • Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas' relationship was recently confirmed

Ben Affleck couldn’t have predicted that he would fall in love with his “Deep Water” co-star, Ana de Armas.

After previously saying that he was in no rush to go out on a date, Affleck and de Armas relationship has been confirmed. A source recently told People that Jennifer Garner’s ex-husband has always seemed very relaxed and happy around his co-star.

“But at the time there were no signs of romance. He was very focused on making a fantastic movie. He arrived early and was one of the last people to leave,” the source said.

Another source told E! News that Affleck and de Armas engaged in PDA while they were filming their upcoming movie.

“They have been kissing, cuddling up together and putting their arms around each other a lot. They look at each other adoringly and like taking pictures of each other. Ben seems blissfully happy and giddy. He can't stop smiling and laughing. They are without a doubt a couple,” the source said.

And just before Donald Trump declared the coronavirus pandemic a national emergency and encourage Americans to practice social distancing, Affleck and de Armas were photographed hanging out together.

A source said that the “Batman v Superman” star helped de Armas hunt for a home in Los Angeles. And just weeks earlier, de Armas toured Affleck in her hometown of Cuba.

According to E! News, even though the couple’s relationship is quite new, de Armas is a perfect fit for Affleck’s current life plan. The dad of three is focused on his sobriety and on making sure that he spends as much time as possible with his kids.

During his interview on “Good Morning America,” Affleck predicted where he would be in five years.

“Five years from now Ben Affleck is sober and happy and sees his kids three-and-a-half days a week and has made three or four movies that are interesting to him. I directed two [movies] that he is hopefully proud of and is in a healthy, stable, loving, committed relationship,” he said.
