Ben Affleck and his new girlfriend Ana de Armas are quarantining together during the coronavirus pandemic, but their new relationship has been anything but hidden during these times. While the two haven’t really posted about each other on their Instagrams or done any livestreams of their daily activities, paparazzi photographed them kissing multiple times yesterday during their stroll in Brentwood. They were walking de Armas’ dog and clearly weren’t bothered by the general public looking on.
Entertainment Tonight got intel from a source earlier this week about how Affleck and de Armas’ new romance came to be. They haven’t been dating that long at all, a source told the outlet.
“Ben and Ana have been dating for a few weeks and are enjoying each other’s company,” the source said. “The couple met while filming [upcoming psychological thriller] Deep Water in Louisiana and instantly had a connection.”
“Ben is sober and in a really good place and Ana respects him for the process he’s going through,” the source continued. “Ben and Ana are still early into their relationship, but it’s been fun and exciting for both.”
Affleck and de Armas have already been on two trips together: One to Cuba and another to Costa Rica. Affleck was photographed kissing de Armas on a Costa Rican beach and taking pictures of her. Those photos he took were posted later on de Armas’ Instagram. She didn’t give him photo credit, so he commented, “photo credit pls,” calling her out for that choice.
