Ben Affleck wants JLO back in his life? Perhaps. If Hollywood Life is to be believed, Ben really does want Jennifer Lopez in his life. An inside source says that Ben thinks they are better suited for each other than they ever had been. “Ben’s focus right now is really on J. Lo,” an insider told Life & Style. “He thinks they’re better suited for each other now than they were before. He wants her back.”

Ten years back, Bennifer were one of the hottest couples in Hollywood. It has been reported that although Ben Affleck is living with Jennifer Garner, their relationship is pretty platonic. But it’s not really known if Jennifer Lopez is going to respond to it positively, and let’s not forget that she is still with her boyfriend Casper Smart. It’s been said that Ben has been sending her flirtatious messages.

If we jog our memories a little bit, we remember that it was Ben Affleck who had ended the relationship about 10 years ago. “To be honest, he’s never really gotten over J. Lo,” the insider added. Sources have said that he definitely doesn’t regret marrying Jennifer Garner and having three kids but he wonders how life with Lopez would have been. “He doesn’t regret marrying Jen and having three beautiful children, of course, but he does wonder what his life with J. Lo would have been like. That’s why he’s reaching out to her now.”

Sources have said they can’t exactly tell when Ben started reaching out to her, but they say that the relationship is not going to work out for her. Jennifer Lopez recently threw some shade at her ex Ben Affleck. When Andy Cohen asked the “Jenny From The Block” if she liked Ben Affleck’s tattoo, she confessed it was “awful.”

“It’s AWFUL! I would tell him that, I would tell him,” Jennifer said. She said the tattoo has way too many colors, and that she wishes his tattoos were a bit cooler. “Like, what are you doing? It has too many colors. His tattoos always have too many colors! They shouldn’t be so colorful. They should be, like…cooler,” Hollywood Life has reported. Do you think Ben Affleck’s tattoos are too colorful?

However, Jennifer Lopez is not the only ex of Ben Affleck who has criticized the tattoos. Jennifer Garner has hit out at Ben for his tattoos as well. “You know what we would say in my hometown about that?”Jennifer Garner asked in a Vanity Fair interview. “Bless his heart. A phoenix rising from the ashes. Am I the ashes in this scenario? I take umbrage. I refuse to be the ashes.”

JLO and Ben Affleck started dating in July 2002 and were engaged in November of the same year. They had planned a September 2003 wedding and later postponed it, and the couple eventually broke up a few months later. However, it has been reported that the two have been very cordial since the split. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have announced divorce after 10 years of marriage. Jennifer Garner did admit that it’s hard for her to talk about her relationship with Ben Affleck right at this moment. “And it’s always easier to focus on the way you feel hurt, but I know that, with time and some perspective, I’ll have a clearer sense of where I let the system down, because there’s no way I get off in this.”

Surely, it didn’t really work out between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner, but will he win Jennifer Lopez back?
