JUST IN: “I’ve realized I can not do without you” — Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck announce ‘Unstoppable’ reunion amid… See more

The 51-year-old was the first guest to kick off the new season of the Peacock series as rumors swirl around the world about the suspected breakdown of his marriage to Lopez.

The interview largely focused on Affleck’s journey into Hollywood with best friend and two step-children with Lopez — with money — as opposed to how he and Lopez grew up.

“I like this life for them better than the one I had and that’s the balance, and I talk to Jennifer about that a lot,” he said.

It wasn’t until the end of the episode where he recalled a story with Lopez and the chaos that surrounds her when she steps out in public.
My daughter is always throwing out titles to her autobiography,” Affleck explained. “We went somewhere with [Lopez] — I can’t remember because she’s so famous, and she creates this — people love her, and she really represents something important to people,” Affleck says. “[To me,] People are like, ‘Hey, I like your movie,’ and then they’re like ‘AAAHHHH! J-LO!,'” he yelled. “It’s amazing, you know what I mean?,” he told Hart with a smile across his face.

“I think it was when we rolled through Times Square,” he continued. “We get out of the car, we were going to a play, and I was like, ‘F–k it, babe, we’re going to be late, we gotta walk a block and a half.’ [Lopez] was like, ‘Alright,’ she didn’t say s–t.”

“We get out with her, all the kids, through Times Square, and the s–t was like f–kin’ bananas,” Affleck said. “I was like, ‘Oh my God.’ There was a lady, she was smoking weed, in a full purple skintight suit — she’s a heavy lady — and she starts running backwards filming, going ‘J-LO!!’ Like a herald, that then gets everyone else, and then all the tourists come in,” he continued to recall.
