EXCLUSIVE: JENNIFER LOPEZ’S FRIENDS HOWLING OVER “HYPOCRITE” BEN AFFLECK’S GQ COVER — “HE SAYS HE’S PRIVATE… ON A MAGAZINE COVER!”
Jennifer Lopez’s inner circle is calling BS on Ben Affleck — and they’re not holding back.
After the Oscar winner’s eyebrow-raising GQ cover story dropped Tuesday morning, sources say Lopez’s friends are “howling with laughter” — and rage — at Affleck’s claim that he’s the “more private” one in the relationship.
“He’s literally saying he’s private while posing on the COVER of a magazine,” one insider scoffed. “Make it make sense.”
In the GQ profile, Affleck casually dismissed the drama surrounding his split from Lopez, insisting there was “no scandal,” and downplaying her raw, emotional documentary The Greatest Love Story Never Told — a project Lopez poured her heart into just months before their breakup.
“This is textbook Ben,” said one longtime J.Lo pal. “Minimize her, spin the narrative, then go on a press tour to play the sad-eyed good guy.”
What’s really got Lopez’s camp laughing? The irony of Affleck calling her “less private” while doing a full photoshoot and multi-page spread discussing their breakup.
“If he’s so private, why is he talking about it at all?” another friend asked. “He knew what he was doing. He wanted his version out there.”
Lopez, for her part, has remained tight-lipped since the article dropped — but insiders say she’s seething behind the scenes, feeling like Affleck is once again leveraging their relationship to score press points.
“If he thinks she’s going to stay quiet, he’s mistaken,” a source warned. “She told her truth in that documentary. And she still has plenty left to say — if she wants to.”
