In recent days Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have been in the news for a video where they apparently argue and he assures her that he has not had anything to drink. In the image, it is seen that JLo tries a glass of wine, without taking her eyes off her husband, who calls her “Jen” as if begging her to believe him. Some have criticized López for drinking in front of him, who has overcome alcohol problems thanks to the rehabilitation processes she has undergone in previous years. Others say that in reality, she is corroborating that the drink, from which she believes that he drank, is not alcoholic. Anyway, the video has brought up again the problems that Ben Affleck had in the past with liquor and the permanent concern on the part of his now wife, because he does not relapse. The material would have been recorded at a party for the Hollywood premiere of JLo’s new movie, Shotgun Wedding, which occurred on January 18.
It has previously been said that she watches that there is no liquor at home to prevent Affleck from falling into temptation, it is even said that when she agreed to marry him, it became clear that she could never relapse, otherwise the relationship would be in danger.
Affleck would have experienced a time of stress and anxiety in the days before the wedding due to the preparations for it, which would have triggered a crisis, but apparently, he remained sober with the support of the singer.
Ben Affleck’s addictions
The last time the actor who played Batman entered a rehabilitation clinic was in Malibu, in August 2018. His ex-wife Jennifer Garner was the one who took him, despite the fact that they were already separated.
The first time he went through a similar center was in 2001. Fifteen years later he relapsed, entered treatment, and apparently was aware of the problem.

“I’m out of treatment for alcohol addiction, something I’ve dealt with in the past and will continue to do,” Affleck said. “I want to live to the fullest and be as good a father as I can be,” referring to efforts to recover for Violet, Seraphine, and Samuel, the three children he had with Garner.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck away from the casinos
Although he has not referred to gambling problems, it has been revealed that in the past he did have excesses in casinos. This inconvenience would also be a matter that Jennifer López knows and therefore, she does not go to these types of places with her husband.
It should also be noted that some of these gambling establishments in Hollywood have been banned from Affleck since 2014 and he was declared persona non grata for his ability to count cards and win a lot of money.
“It took me a while to learn and become a decent Blackjack player. And once I did, then the casinos asked me not to play, ”he said about his ban to enter, although later, in an interview, he assured that he is actually welcome. “There were a few casinos that told me I couldn’t play Blackjack because they knew I counted cards, but I could go to dinner or see a show.”Here are more famous life stories
