Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are getting serious.
The reunited couple were photographed looking at houses together in Los Angeles per TMZ and were even caught sharing a kiss in between their house hunting in the upscale Holmby Hills neighborhood. (You can see the photos here.) Although TMZ reported that Affleck was only accompanying J.Lo on her new-home search, the pair's PDA and house hunting comes after speculation that the couple may be moving in together sooner rather than later.
Per Entertainment Tonight, friends close to the pair "wouldn't be surprised" if they ended up "[moving in] together and ultimately end up together."
"They're spending all of their free time together and making each other a priority. J.Lo falls hard and has certainly done the same with Ben again this time around," a source told ET. "Ben is a guy's guy and does his own thing, which J.Lo loves. He has his own life and is famous in a different way than she is and is not trying to compete with her by any means. They just support and love each other."
Lopez also recently hinted that she's happier than she's ever been amid her rekindled romance with her former fiancé. The singer sat down with Apple Music's Ebro Darden and reminisced about her 2002 album, This Is Me... Then, and how her personal life now parallels her life then.
"The name of that album was This Is Me... Then," Lopez said. "That was a moment. When you go back and hear that, you hear the purity and the love there. And I think that's why people went back as they saw different things happening in my life now and they go, 'Wow, really?' And I think it gave people hope."
Lopez continued, "Some things do last forever," potentially alluding to the love she has for Affleck.
