Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are allegedly gearing up to have a baby of their own very soon.
National Enquirer, in its Feb. 13 issue, claimed that Affleck and Lopez’s baby-making plans are pushing through full steam ahead because they are dying to have a baby Bennifer.
“J.Lo’s so excited! She’s saying this will complete their journey and be the icing on the cake of their fairytale love story. She’s trying not to get too far ahead of herself, but she and Ben are hoping to have a baby in their arms by the end of the year,” the source said.
The source added that Lopez and Affleck have always wanted to have a baby of their own when they first got together in the early 2000s. Unfortunately, they never managed to make their dream a reality because they split right before they tied the knot.
Now that they are back together, there’s nothing else that Lopez and Affleck want more than to have a baby to welcome into their family.
“She remembers those early days when she and Ben would lie awake at night dreaming and planning to raise their own family. This isn’t her or Ben pulling away from their current brood, far from it. They just want more love in the house,” the source said.
In the past, Lopez swore off IVF and said that it was something that she would never try. But according to the insider, the mom of two had a change of heart after getting back together with Affleck.
Since Lopez is already in her 50s and she could no longer carry a baby in her womb, she and Affleck allegedly agreed to do IVF.
“She’s changed her position and now recognizes it’s a wonderful option she’s lucky to have. Make no mistake, this will be her dream come true,” the source said.
However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt. It’s not true that Lopez and Affleck are planning to have a baby of their own. The couple already has a total of five children combined and adding another one might be too challenging for their family.
After all. Lopez and Affleck both have very busy schedules so it’s unlikely for them to want to have a baby right now.
