“[Jennifer] is in touch with Ben every day,” the source told People Magazine. “They are making plans to see each other. Jennifer is still very excited about how things are going with Ben.”

The source added that meanwhile, Lopez “is spending time with her kids in Miami. She has been working, too.”

This comes after Affleck and Lopez were spotted last weekend in a car near the Big Sky resort in Montana. Another insider said that Lopez “had a great time with Ben,” adding, “She is happy with him and enjoys spending time with him.”

“[Jennifer] spent several days with Ben out of town. They have a strong connection. It’s all been quick and intense, but Jennifer is happy,” the source continued.

The source went on to say that Affleck is the one who planned the getaway.

“They both had last week off and wanted to spend time away from L.A.,” the source explained. “Ben suggested Montana since he has a place there.”

Sources told TMZ that it was Affleck who reinitiated contact with Lopez in February of this year, when he penned an email to her about “how beautiful she looked” in photos of her filming the upcoming movie Shotgun Wedding. Affleck sent the email after photos leaked to the press showing Lopez filming wedding scenes for the film in the Dominican Republican.

Affleck also reportedly said in the email that he wishes he could have been in the Dominican Republic too, but was filming The Tender Bar in Boston with George Clooney. The two reportedly stayed in contact via email until Lopez returned home to the states at the end of April after filming was completed.

“They have a lot of love for each other. They have always admired each other,” a source recently said.

This comes just one month after Lopez called off her engagement from the legendary baseball player Alex Rodriguez.
