After recently ending his relationship with Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck has caught the attention of media outlets as rumors swirl about his love life. Reports have surfaced claiming that the 52-year-old Oscar-winning actor has been seen in the company of Kathleen "Kick" Kennedy, daughter of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

According to Page Six, the news broke on August 24, just four days after Lopez filed for divorce, revealing that Affleck and Kennedy were spotted together at the Polo Lounge in the Beverly Hills Hotel, as well as other popular spots around Los Angeles. Interestingly, the revelation came on the same day that RFK Jr. suspended his White House bid.

However, conflicting reports have emerged regarding the nature of their relationship. People magazine cited multiple sources, some claiming that the duo has spent time together and hinting at a potential romantic connection. One insider mentioned that Kennedy has always had a crush on Affleck. On the other hand, a different source insisted that there is nothing going on between them and suggested that they might not even know each other.

Adding to the speculation, People magazine also reported that Affleck and Kennedy have been "getting to know one another" and could be part of the same social circle. Allegedly, they have been seen together since June, which coincides with the period when Lopez listed their separation date as April 26 in the divorce filing.

TMZ and Yahoo Entertainment chimed in, stating that while Affleck and Kennedy have been seen spending time together, they are not dating or in a romantic relationship, according to sources close to them.

When approached for comment, Affleck's representative denied the dating reports, stating that the rumors are untrue. However, Kennedy's representative did not respond to the request for comment.

Kathleen Kennedy, one of RFK Jr.'s children, has had some brush with the entertainment industry, making appearances in shows like "The Newsroom" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm." In an interview with Town & Country in 2012, Kennedy expressed no interest in fame and explained that she was more focused on philanthropy, particularly in the areas of animal welfare and the environment.

As for the split between Affleck and Lopez, sources claim that their separation was a result of their differences as individuals. Affleck's alleged mood swings and attitude were said to have played a role in their decision to part ways. While Lopez tried to make things work, Affleck did not give any indication of wanting to continue their marriage.

Both stars have remained silent regarding their breakup, though their relationship continues to make headlines. For now, the truth about Affleck and Kennedy's connection remains uncertain, leaving fans and the media to speculate about their status and whether or not a new romance is on the horizon.
