Jennifer Lopez has directly responded to Ben Affleck's claims that her performance in their movie was 'spectacular' following their bombshell split.
Fans of 'Bennifer' all around the world were sad to hear the news that Lopez had filed for divorce from Affleck, 20 years after the pair had rekindled their love.
But despite their recent split, Affleck put on a classy display during a recent interview where he had nothing but praise for his soon-to-be ex-wife.

And whilst the last thing you want to be is connected to your ex following a breakup, the former couple made that particularly tricky for themselves after working on the film Unstoppable together.
While Affleck produced the drama, Lopez starred as the leading lady, which more than likely made their divorce the elephant in the room during any promo for the movie.
But despite presumable tensions, Affleck spoke very highly of his former flame during a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight.

"Unstoppable is a very different movie...Goldenberg and Jennifer and Don Cheadle and Jharrel, and Bobby Cannavale - all were really passionate about this film," he said.
"Jennifer is spectacular."
And Lopez was confronted with this claim during the film’s premiere in London this weekend - but she wasn't quite as direct about her admiration for Affleck.

Instead, when asked what she thought of her ex's producing, she gave a much more general response.
The star said: "Um, I would describe all of the cast and everybody behind the scenes as spectacular and wonderful."
Despite batting away the question, Lopez did open up about 'love' during a Kamala Harris rally that she was speaking at a few weeks ago.
Wiping a tear away as she spoke candidly, the actress said: "This is the most important stage I've ever been on. I'm a lover, I am not a fighter, I am not here to trash anyone or bring them down."

Prior to the rally, Lopez spoke about her split from Affleck, calling it the 'hardest time' of her life.
Speaking to Interview Magazine, she said: "You have to be good on your own. I thought I learned that, but I didn’t.
"And then, this summer, I had to be like, 'I need to go off and be on my own. I want to prove to myself that I can do that'."
