Ben Affleck appeared ‘triggered’ by paparazzi, a body language expert says
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have fundamental differences allegedly getting in the way of sustaining a healthy marriage. Lopez loves the limelight and planned a tour for her new album in 2024. As for Affleck, he prefers a private life away from the public. Lopez and Affleck have publicly discussed their differences. However, some sources claim they can no longer cohabitate because of how they wish to live.
Recently, Affleck allegedly “erupted in anger” and let his “strongest emotions” take hold when paparazzi photographed him outside Lopez’s home. Affleck reportedly moved out of the $60 million home and into a $100,000 monthly rental months ago. When the incident occurred, he was seen at the house on Sunday, June 23, 2024.
Body language expert Judi James told The Mirror that Affleck appeared “triggered” by the paparazzi, as seen in photos. The photos show Affleck angrily yelling and pointing, taking the paparazzi’s phone.
“As he stands shouting at the photographer, his legs are splayed, and he performs a very dramatic arm-stretched point,” James said. “When he turns away, the skin of his face looks red and blotchy with paler patches, which can be a symptom of the strongest emotions.”
“Ben is a big guy, and he looms over this man,” she continued. “It’s always fair to look for other interpretations of a body language pose, but there are no signs here to suggest Ben is just joking or having a friendly chat.”
James said that the media speculation regarding Affleck and Lopez likely got the best of Affleck at this moment. “Big issues or pressure in someone’s life can create the strong emotions that are triggered by something else, often something more minor,” she said.

“I get out with [Lopez], all the kids, through Times Square, and the shit was f***ing bananas,” Affleck said, according to HuffPost. “It was like the mayor [arrived] … and there’s this lady, she’s smoking weed, wearing a purple, skintight suit … and she sees [us]. She starts running backwards, filming, going, ‘J.Lo!’ It’s like a herald that then gets everyone else, and then they’re all [starstruck] tourists. Then I’m moving, we got our five kids, me and Jen, and it feels like hundreds of people — and they’re all screaming.”
