Goodbye Ben Affleck? Some say Jennifer Lopez, 55, has a new man in her life… But sit down before you see who it is, because you might recognize him and you will be surprised 😮

Just three months after her split from Ben Affleck, J.Lo was spotted holding hands with a dashing new addition to her security team.

While some fans are already speculating about romance, many are crossing their fingers that this blond protector doesn’t become her next big relationship headline.

Since Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez announced their split in August 2024, both have been experiencing some post-relationship transformations.

JLo had LASIK eye surgery and says she’s “excited” to be “flying on her own,” while her ex has been experimenting with his hair follicles.

A striking new bodyguard

But the question is, will Ben be even more rattled by the latest buzz surrounding his ex-wife?

Many tabloids are now talking about J.Lo’s newest addition to her security team.

While these rumors might be speculative, they gained significant traction when Jennifer Lopez was seen with a striking new bodyguard shortly after her split from Ben Affleck. During her visit to London on Thursday, the Bronx diva was spotted holding hands with a young, blond man who seemed to have Scandinavian features.

The 55-year-old star was all smiles as she held onto the stern-looking guard while stepping out of a large black SUV, even though she was wearing modest kitten-heel boots, a stylish black hat, and a small purse.

Of course, the Daily Mail couldn’t resist pointing out how the bodyguard bore a striking resemblance to a young Alexander Skarsgård. According to the British newspaper, each time the security guard is spotted with Lopez, he’s dressed in a gray blazer adorned with a silver lapel pin marked ”PG.”

”He is a new addition to her security team, but he is not the only one. She has several security guards around her whenever she goes out, they are just hard to see,” a source told DailyMail.com.

Who is that well-built hunk?

This isn’t the first time this well-built hunk has caught people’s attention. He was also spotted with Jenny From The Block in New York City on November 3, accompanying her as she made her way to a high-rise building. According to Daily Mail, this new bodyguard was not a part of her team when she was wed to Ben Affleck in July 16, 2022.

Jennifer Lopez’s commitment to security is nothing short of meticulous – she loves feeling protected. For the past 25 years, Lopez has consistently relied on a team of bodyguards, often employing Israeli security professionals along with a number of female bodyguards.

Lopez’s detail is known for its presence even during routine activities — whether she’s heading to the gym or making appearances at high-profile events. With the cost of an elite bodyguard reaching anywhere between $1,000 to $1,500 per hour, it’s clear that her safety comes at a premium.

While the Bronx-born star’s life is constantly under the public’s watchful eye, she continues to exude confidence and grace, supported by a top-tier security team.

A memorable instance

Her security entourage, however, hasn’t been without its share of controversies and headlines. In 2004, one of Lopez’s bodyguards, Nathan Butts, faced an investigation for robbery after allegedly seizing a memory card from a partygoer’s camera at a South Beach nightclub, suspecting they had taken unauthorized photos of the singer.

The early 2000s were particularly colorful, as one of her guards was allegedly fired in 2001 for attempting to smuggle marijuana and hashish across the U.S.-Canada border The drugs were discovered by a canine unit that detected the substances hidden in the guard’s socks.

Despite the drama, Lopez’s security detail often draws attention not just from paparazzi but from the public as well.

A memorable instance occurred in 1999 at the Cincinnati Art Museum.

As Jennifer Lopez stepped out of her limo at the front entrance of the Cincinnati Art Museum, she made quite the entrance draped in a luxurious fur coat and carrying her tiny poodle, which sported a diamond tiara. Lopez had hoped to walk her dog and tour the museum, but with pets prohibited inside, the pampered pooch had to stay outside under the watchful eye of her bodyguard.

While Lopez indulged in some shopping inside, the museum’s security team couldn’t resist the spectacle. “All the male guards came to the front to look at Jennifer Lopez,” manager Debbie Molzberger shared with The Cincinnati Enquirer. “All of the women went outside to see her dog and talk with her bodyguard.”

”Better get the hats ready, ladies”

After Jennifer Lopez was recently spotted holding hands with her new, dashing bodyguard, the internet had plenty to say. One particularly sharp observation making the rounds was, “She can’t live without a man. She needs to focus on her kids. Children always come first, not the other way around.”

Of course, when it comes to Lopez’s well-documented love life, it’s hard not to smirk and wonder if this time will be any different. Because between the Bennifer eras, J.Lo has certainly filled her timeline with a who’s who of romantic interests.

Before rekindling her romance with Ben Affleck, Lopez had a high-profile relationship with New York Yankees icon Alex Rodriguez, complete with a dazzling engagement ring that unfortunately never led to wedding bells. And who could forget her brief 2016 relationship with rapper Drake that fizzled out within the year?

Then there was her on-again, off-again two-and-a-half-year “fun fling” with backup dancer Casper Smart, followed by a decade-long marriage to singer Marc Anthony, and her first whirlwind chapter with Affleck. Add in her memorable two-year romance with Diddy and her very first marriage to actor Ojani Noa in 1997, and you’ve got a love story with more twists than a rom-com.

So, if history is any indication, some are already playfully suggesting, “Better get the hats ready, ladies—I feel a wedding invitation coming soon!”

Jokes aside, we all hope that J.Lo is doing well and finds some peace and quiet after all the drama. With her undeniable talent and charisma, she deserves happiness and stability, whether she’s holding hands with a bodyguard or simply enjoying life with her family.
