Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have shocked their fans in recent weeks by rekindling their romance seventeen years after they called off their engagement in front of the entire world. Now, Affleck’s best friend Matt Damon is speaking out to give his thoughts on them reuniting.

“I’m just so happy for him. He’s the best,” Damon told Extra on Monday. “He deserves every happiness in the world. I’m glad for both of them.”

Lopez and Affleck reunited back in May, one month after she broke off her engagement to baseball legend Alex Rodriguez. She and Affleck had previously started dating in 2001 and were engaged from 2002 until early 2004. They would each go on to marry others and have children before divorcing their respective parents.

A source told Fox News this week that Lopez, 52, “is accepting the gift of happiness at this stage in her life.”

“Jennifer is happy and appreciative that into her 50s she can still do what she loves doing – which today, allows her to feel younger given her overall approach to health consciousness and the fact she keeps herself very active,” the insider continued. “She has health and family which is all she needs to make herself whole.”

Last month, Damon was a little more reluctant to talk about Affleck and Lopez’s romance when he was asked about it in an interview.

“There’s not enough liquor in the world for you to get me to say something about that,” Damon joked, adding that the rekindled romance is “a fascinating story” that he hoped was true.

“I love them both. I hope it’s true. That would be awesome,” he said. “It just feels good to get it out and people are starting to see it, and that’s exciting.”

Friends of the couple have said that they will likely move in together very soon.

“Their friends wouldn’t be surprised if they move in together and ultimately end up together,” one source said, according to Daily Mail. “They’re spending all of their free time together and making each other a priority. J.Lo falls hard certainly done the same with Ben again this time around.”

“Ben is a guy’s guy and does his own thing, which J.Lo loves,” he added. “He has his own life and is famous in a different way than she is and is not trying to compete with her by any means. They just support and love each other.”
