The Truth About Ben Affleck Moving In With Girlfriend Ana De Armas
Big steps! Ben Affleck and girlfriend Ana de Armas are taking "cuffing season" to a whole new level after deciding to move in with one another. The pair "made it official" and are "living together at Ben's place" a source told In Touch on Dec. 6, 2020.
This big move in their relationship comes one year after the couple met on the set of their movie Deep Water. Since falling for each other while filming, their romance has continued to progress. The pair reportedly quarantined together amid the coronavirus pandemic and were often spotted taking PDA-filled walks around Los Angeles.
While Affleck can "really see a future" with his costar, the opinions of his children — Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel — whom he shares with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, matter most. Luckily, the fierce mama approves of her ex's new love. "Jen is happy that Ben is doing well," another source told In Touch in October 2020. "The kids like Ana, so there's no drama there. Life is good."
Additionally, de Armas has earned the approval of Affleck's mother, Christine Anne Boldt, who thinks she is a "positive influence" on the father, a source shared with In Touch in June 2020. The grandmother is "thrilled to see him so happy and in such a good place. Seeing Ben happy makes Christine happy." Since everyone seems to be on the same page, it make sense why these two would take things to the next level. Keep scrolling for more details about the couple's progressing relationship.
