Ben Affleck & Margot Robbie: Is Actor Hooking Up With Margot Robbie After Having Longtime Crush?


Ben Affleck and Margot Robbie could be a hot new couple — if the rumors about Ben having a major crush on the actress were actually true. According to Mail Online, it didn’t take long for Affleck hook-up rumors to start once he and Jennifer Garner announced their divorce. Sources claim that Affleck has been sweating Robbie ever since he saw her in The Wolf Of Wall Street, and that he “developed serious feelings” for her while the two were filming Suicide Squad together in Canada.

The rumors, however, seem to be untrue. Sources close to the actors say that the two barely spent any time together off screen. Also, Robbie has been dating Tom Ackerley, and the two seem very much in love.

Ben Affleck and Margot Robbie rumors were just the latest of many that have surfaced over the past week. As previously reported by the Inquisitr, Ben has already been linked to his ex-girlfriend, Jennifer Lopez. Although JLo is dating her on-again boyfriend, Casper Smart, sources say that she has kept in touch with Affleck, and that the two have been rekindling their romance (which ended over 10 years ago).

“Everyone is talking about J-Lo and Ben and saying it’s inevitable they will get together again at some point. We call them the Richard Burton and Liz Taylor of Hollywood,” said an unnamed source.

So if Ben Affleck and Margot Robbie aren’t hooking up, and Jennifer Lopez is out of the picture, many are left wondering who the actor will date next. For him, however, there doesn’t seem to be any kind of urgency when it comes to finding a new leading lady.

According to Yahoo! News, Ben and Jen are keeping their relationship amicable for the sake of their three children, Violet, 9, Seraphina, 6, and Samuel, 3. In fact, the family was spotted on vacation in the Bahamas over the weekend. This comes days after it was reported that Ben will still be living with his soon-to-be ex-wife and their kids.

Any funny business between Ben Affleck and Margot Robbie that you might read about is “simply not true.” There doesn’t seem to be any indication that Ben’s looking to date right away, and that is likely the last thing Jennifer Garner is thinking about, too. Of course, the two will eventually move on, but, for the time being, their kids are their priority.
