Tom Brady was recently linked with Hollywood actress, Reese Witherspoon. After his divorce from Gisele Bündchen, Tom was struggling to find a date. Hence, the rumors of him seeing Reese were met with a somewhat positive reaction. But, the recent chatter makes it seem like the couple was never dating. However, Witherspoon is not the only Hollywood star with whom Tom may have lost his connection.
If some reports are to be believed, Tom is no longer friends with Hollywood superstar, Ben Affleck. The duo has known each other since the early 2000s. In 2002, after Tom won his very first Super Bowl with the New England Patriots. During a White House correspondent dinner afterward, Ben called Brady the “king of Boston.” They have been friends ever since. After Tom’s divorce, he spent some time with Ben as friends.
However, if a recent report is to be believed, Ben is no longer allowed to stay in touch with Tom. Affleck, who played “Batman” in the DCEU recently and has a sports movie coming up on NBA legend Michael Jordan, is currently having to maintain his distance from the 7-time Super Bowl winner! But why is Affleck reportedly staying away from Tom Brady? Let’s find out.
Jennifer Lopez is the reason behind the distance between Tom Brady and Ben Affleck
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez were one of the hottest couples in the world in the early part of the millennium. Although they were ready to get married in 2003, the couple went through a rough patch and broke up in 2004. However, they got back together in 2021 and got married in 2022. Hence, Lopez is very protective of Ben and she is reportedly urging the 50-year-old to stay away from Brady.
Some insiders think Jennifer is afraid of Brady having an effect on her married life with Ben. The source added, “Jennifer’s insecurity is off the charts right now. She’s never been needier, and if Ben thinks he’s going to have her approval to party with Tom, he can forget it!”
Reportedly, Ben Affleck was planning on spending time with the recently divorced Tom Brady in either New York or Florida. Although the pop singer and actress are not opposed to Ben and Tom having a business relationship together, she reportedly does not want Tom and Ben to be friends.
“She won’t stand in the way if they want to do business projects together. But as far as boys’ time in Florida or New York, which is what Ben’s proposing, it’s a nightmare scenario for Jennifer. She’s not going to stand for it,” an insider added.
Although Jennifer Lopez is wary of Tom Brady, Brady’s ex-wife Gisele Bündchen is still rooting for the NFL legend. She recently spoke to Enews on her separation from Brady and added that his football career was not the only reason behind the difference between the couple. Although she did not specify the details behind the dispute, Bündchen still wants the best for Brady.
