Days after going Instagram official, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have been spotted on a romantic Italian holiday.
The couple, arguably one of the most talked-about at present, is vacationing in Capri, an island off the coast of Naples in Southern Italy. Famous for being popular with international celebrities, this Mediterranean haven has welcomed the likes of Beyoncé and Rihanna in recent years.
Jennifer Lopez And Ben Affleck Surrounded By Fans In Italy
JLo and her beau Affleck are among the latest celebrities to fall in love with the island.
Videos and pictures taken by fans show the couple walking across the iconic Piazzetta — the island's main square and beating heart — while holding hands.
They are followed by their security people as well as hoards of fans calling Lopez’s name. This is one of the pair’s first public outings, after they have been spotted in Los Angeles and the Hamptons earlier in the year.
The two have reconnected following Lopez’s split from ex-fiancé, former baseball player Alex Rodriguez. Affleck and the singer got together in 2002, getting engaged in November of that year. They went their separate ways in 2004. Lopez married singer Marc Anthony in 2004; Affleck married Jennifer Garner in 2005.
Social Media Users Sympathize With JLo And Affleck Over Lack Of Privacy
As the video of them in Capri clearly shows, JLo and Affleck are followed by fans as they enjoyed their walk.
While Lopez talks to some of them and seems to be used to the attention, Affleck seems uncomfortable.
“This seems stressful, they're rich af so I don't pity them but still stressful I bet lol,” one fan wrote on celebrity gossip page @deuxmoi.discussions.
"Ben looks fed up and as usual, JLO loving the attention LOL,” was another comment.
“With all that money why didn’t they just go to a private island and chill there for vacay. this is what broke them up the first time and they are heading towards a second break up because they keep putting themselves in this situation,” another user asked.
Finally, one fan seems to be as fond of Capri as the loved-up couple.
“I want to go there ASAP, it looks beautiful,” they wrote, understandably.
