Ben Affleck Accuses Paparazzi of Putting His Daughter in “Danger” Outside Jennifer Lopez Mansion
Paparazzi are in deep water with Ben Affleck.
The Good Will Hunting star called out photographers for allegedly creating a safety hazard for him outside of the Beverly Hills mansion he shares with wife Jennifer Lopez on June 23.
In a video obtained by TMZ, Ben—who shares kids Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel 12, with ex Jennifer Garner—got out of his car after pulling into his driveway to reprimand one photographer for snapping pics with flash at nighttime.
"You're gonna get me into an accident," the 51-year-old explained in the clip. "Don't flash your lights when someone is driving down the driveway."
Noting that it's "dangerous," Ben added, "I can't see! You're gonna get somebody hurt doing this s--t."
And the Oscar winner said he wasn't only sticking up for himself in the situation. After all, he shared that one of his daughters would be "coming down here" shortly after.
"If you flash the lights on her, you're putting her in danger," Ben warned. "Do you understand that?"
E! News has reached out to his rep for comment but hasn't heard back.
Earlier this week, Ben was seen on a father-daughter dinner date with Violet in Los Angeles. For the outing, the Justice League star opted not to wear his wedding ring, further fueling the J.Lo breakup rumors that have been circulating over the past several months due to reports that the couple—who tied the knot in July 2022—had been living separately and are currently trying to sell their shared home.
But the speculation didn't stop Jennifer—who shares twins Max and Emme, 16, with ex-husband Marc Anthony—from shouting out Ben's parenting earlier this month in honor of Father's Day.
"Our hero," she wrote on her Instagram Stories June 16 alongside a photo of the actor as Capt. Rafe McCawley in Pearl Harbor. "Happy Father's Day!"
