It turns out Ben Affleck is not rebounding after his split from Jennifer Lopez quite yet! Affleck’s rep has addressed rumors he is dating Kick Kennedy and says there is no truth to the speculation.
The actor, 52, found himself at the center of dating rumors with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s oldest daughter Kick Kennedy less than a week after Lopez, 55, officially filed for divorce but his rep is finally kicking the rumor to the curb.
“There is no truth to any of it. I don’t know if they even know each other,” Jen Allen, Affleck’s spokesperson said in a statement obtained by People on Tuesday, Aug. 27.
On August 24, Page Six was first to report that the newly-single actor has been seen hanging out with the 36-year-old daughter of the failed presidential candidate. This soon snowballed into a dating rumor with some sources telling People that they have been hanging out since late spring, which is when the Air director secretly separated from Lopez.
Another insider, however, told People, “I don’t think they even know each other. There’s definitely nothing going on.”
Kennedy is the second-born of RFK Jr.’s six children and was born during his marriage to Emily Ruth Black. She is an actress who has had minor roles in Gossip Girl and Curb Your Enthusiasm, in which her stepmother Cheryl Hines plays a leading role.
Kennedy, who is far less public than her controversial father, has not addressed the rumors directly but she has been making headlines in the days since the speculation began with outlets resurfacing forgotten details about her family life.
Affleck has been laying low since his much-talked-about split from his wife of two years and has not publicly addressed his divorce.
